DAPRA Triage Challenge
Funded by US DAPRA, 2025
The DARPA Triage Challenge aims to drive breakthrough innovations in identification of “signatures” of injury that will help medical responders perform scalable, timely, and accurate triage. Of particular interest are mass casualty incidents (MCIs), in both civilian and military settings, when medical resources are limited relative to the need.
In this project I mentored a group to master’s students to build a autonomous drone and develop algorithms for detecting and reporting injured people in the field.
