The application serves to work in conjunction with a personal ECG monitor KM-1 or with devices similar in parameters. The system (device and application) are designed to monitor the cardiac activity of affected people during heart attacks, accidents, injuries. When using an ECG monitor, the actions of other people during primary resuscitation before the arrival of the doctors (“First Aid”) become much more effective. When using the device, it is not necessary to grope for the victim’s carotid artery and, very importantly, do not interrupt heart massage and artificial respiration for periodic monitoring. Practice has shown that the method of manual indication of the pulse is not reliable, especially in extreme conditions. The cardiac activity of the victim is evaluated by an electrocardiogram (ECG), which comes from adhesive electrodes glued to the patient's wrists. This allows not to undress a person, which is very important in an extreme situation. The electrocardiogram amplifies, coded and on a cable comes to the iPhone. It is displayed on the display, and a special algorithm determines the presence or absence of a pulse.
BoneID SAR

BoneID SAR is a field decision-support tool for search-and-rescue teams and for the forensic identification of skeletal remains. BONE REFERENCE LIBRARY Browse the major bones of the human body by region. Each entry lists the features that mark a bone as human, the common animal look-alikes (bear paw, deer, pig, and more), and a field tip for the "is it human?" call. Tap any reference photo to open it full-screen and pinch to zoom for close comparison against your find. LOG AND SHARE FINDS Photograph a discovered bone and record its type, suspected species, estimated age, a human-likelihood assessment, and field notes. Submit it to a shared community database your team can search and review. LOCATION PRIVACY BUILT IN Locations of possible human remains are sensitive. The public database shows only a blurred, approximate area — never the exact spot. Precise coordinates are stored in a separate, access-controlled record available only to authorized authorities and moderators. MODERATION AND VERIFICATION Any find can be reported. Flagged items enter a moderation queue where moderators can keep, hide, or remove them. Experts curate the reference library and verify photos before they are shown as confirmed. You can delete your data and account at any time from the Home screen. IMPORTANT BoneID SAR is decision support, not a forensic diagnosis. Telling human from non-human bone is difficult even for experts. When in doubt, treat remains as human and potential evidence: preserve the scene and notify law enforcement or a medical examiner.
