Autonomous Care, Robotics and Evacuation
Advanced data-driven solutions for the optimization of provider(s) treatment based on dynamic monitoring of available resources and casualty status. Solutions should present an analysis of critical factors (e.g., casualty status, casualty location, number of providers, medical supplies, environmental constraints, etc.) and an artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) algorithm which optimizes casualty priority and provider alignment/assignment to increase clinical capacity at the point of injury. Solutions should focus on the clinical aspects of optimizing triage, patient management, and medical regulating, rather than logistics or re-supply. It is encouraged that the algorithmic solution be compatible/capable to be deployed with existing field medic platforms
