Project Description: LAURA BOT (Landslide AI-Alert & Urgent Rescue Automation Robot) is a comprehensive landslide disaster management system that combines AI-powered prediction, real-time alerts, and rapid post-disaster rescue. Developed in response to the 2024 Wayanad tragedy, LAURA BOT integrates machine learning, GSM, LoRa, and drone technologies to deliver precise early warnings, personalized home alerts, and swift survivor location via GPS-enabled smart vests and drones. This low-cost, scalable solution bridges critical gaps in current systems, functioning even in remote areas with weak infrastructure. Tested through field simulations and expert consultations, the system is backed by robust technical architecture and has initiated patent proceedings. Its modular design makes it deployable at individual and community levels, while a built-in educational toolkit promotes public awareness. LAURA BOT redefines disaster preparedness by not only predicting and preventing, but also empowering communities and enhancing rescue operations, making it a transformative innovation in saving lives during landslide emergencies. LAURA Bot - Prevention to Protection, all in one solution.
