Inspiration
The idea for Emerge stemmed from a desire to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of emergency response systems. Witnessing the potential of AI in many domains, we were inspired to build a system that could leverage the power of these new advancements to streamline emergency response.
What it does
Emerge takes user reports of emergency incidents and uses AI to quickly analyze these reports, evaluate their urgency, and assigns them an appropriate priority value. Emergency responders can use this information to best deploy their resources where they are needed most. Emerge also provides actionable recommendations for emergency personnel, including safety measures, suggested procedures, and necessary equipment.
How we built it
Emerge was primarily built using Django, as it provided a high-level python web framework with rapid development. The AI functionality was achieved with the OpenAI Api.
Challenges we ran into
Our greatest challenge was ensuring the accuracy of the priority values. It took a lot of fine tuning to develop a system prompt that lead to dependable and predictable values.
