How:
While IoT and AI have been pervasive to sectors including healthcare services, manufacturing, urban planning, finance and education, it can also serve as a channel for providing emergency services and reducing exploitation by eliminating human rights violation, especially in development countries.
This session will explore how AI and IoT technologies could serve as a platform for the provision of emergency services that survivors and victims of natural disasters or wars can use to report their safety to their families and friends, and also connect the victims to places for shelter, protection and rehabilitation.
