There's no doubt we live in amazing times. But even in today's advanced medical world, if a person has a cardiac arrest at their home, statistics show less than 10% will survive it If the heart stops beating, the brain dies within 4-6 minutes. This sad fact, coupled with an average ambulance response time of 10 or more minutes, leads to this low chances of survival.
Now comes Alec Momont, a Dutch graduate of Delft University of Technology, has designed a very special drone he believes can drastically improve these numbers. What you really need, Alec surmised, is a defibrillator to jump-start the heart. An ambulane is too slow, but a drone can bring you that defibrillator in just one minute.
