This paper presents the design, development and implementation of the Police Emergency Response Drone System (PERDS), It is an integrated solution created to support the police during emergencies, like kidnappings and threats against women. The system addresses the critical time gap between an incident and the police’s arrival. The response time of the rescue determines the safety of the victims and the chances of criminals escaping unnoticed. PERDS consists of the deployment of drones, ahead of the Police units, providing immediate situational awareness, evidence collection and basic assistance before the rescue team arrives. The drone includes thermal cameras, transmitters and real-time criminal identification tools like facial recognition and license plate detection. These features increase the possibility of rescuing the victim safely, providing better quality videos and thus improve the way of catching the suspects. The system is also integrated with a mobile application that shares the victim’s real-time location with the control centre as soon as an SOS signal is triggered. It can even be accessed by national helpline numbers (e.g., 112). The drone has both autonomous and manual control modes, which ensure flexibility and reliability in unpredictable situations.
