EMERGENCY-RESPONSE ROBOTICS IN DEVELOPMENT

Response starts
before arrival.

Air. Ground. Human control.
One coordinated response.

We’re developing an integrated robotics platform to extend emergency-response capability into the minutes before EMS arrives.

01 The response gap

Help is on the way.
The gap is still there.

Dispatch is not the same
as intervention.

In a time-critical emergency, professional help can still be minutes away. We’re exploring how coordinated robotics can extend useful capability toward the patient during that interval.

2024 CARES non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest data. Response times run from 911 call receipt to arrival on scene; analyses exclude missing times and arrests witnessed by a 911 responder. These are registry findings, not MARDE performance results.

02 The MARDE architecture

Four parts.
One purpose.

Closing distance is only part of the response. Access, coordination, and capability need to travel with it.

01 / Aerial transport

Air

Close the distance.

An aerial platform designed to carry Ground and its payload toward the scene. Current geometry is in engineering development.

Explore Air
02 / Final access

Ground

Reach the final meters.

A teleoperated ground platform intended to continue the approach where the aircraft cannot directly reach.

Explore Ground
03 / Human control

Nexus

Coordinate the response.

The command layer connecting operators, aircraft, ground systems, and response workflows under human oversight.

Explore Nexus
04 / Intervention modules

Modules

Extend capability.

An adaptable payload architecture, starting with delivery and secure-response capabilities. Advanced medical modules come later, after validation.

Connected through Nexus

V1: human-in-the-loop. Higher autonomy follows testing and validation.

03 A coordinated response

From dispatch
to handoff.

Each step has a role.
People remain in control.

A conceptual workflow for extending response capability before EMS arrival.

CONCEPTUAL WORKFLOW / INITIATE

911 / EMS dispatch

An emergency response begins within the professional dispatch workflow.

Select a step to explore. This is the intended V1 workflow, not a live mission.

04 MARDE Nexus

Complex systems.
Clear human control.

One coordination layer for the operator, the aircraft, the ground platform, and the handoff. Nexus V1 is being designed around human authorization at consequential steps.

05 Beyond aerial arrival

The last meters
matter, too.

Rapid aerial response addresses distance. Ground is intended to continue the approach across terrain and into constrained spaces, directed by an operator.

That final-access role is a design objective we still need to build, test, and validate.
