zel.zl
People counting system for earthquakes
One of the biggest problems following earthquakes is knowing how many people are buried under the rubble of collapsed buildings. If all members of a family are trapped and cannot communicate with the outside world, no one will know they are there and rescuers may call off their search. zel.zl is an infrared counting device located at building entrances. When an earthquake occurs zel.zl notifies the people in the building via a message sent to an app. When rescuers arrive, they immediately know how many people are still trapped under the rubble.
This innovative solution supports earthquake search and rescue missions. With its potential for integration into existing systems, this solution offers a streamlined approach.
