SearchWing is a german based (berlin,augsburg) open source hard- and software project which designs, build and operate fixed wing drones for search&rescue operations on the open sea. We mainly operate in the mediterranean sea in cooperation with other NGOs, who actually operate rescue ships to search for people in distress and rescue them before they drown.

As we are a full stack project we search for a lot of volunteers and we basically need help in every domain:
* software: python, nodejs, vuejs, c++, ROS, imageprocessing/deeplearning boatdetection, postgres, ...
* hardware: pcb design, thermalcameras, rgbcameras, wireless connectivity (wifi, ELRS), microcontrollers, raspberrypi
* airplane design / mechanical design: construct planes for long endurance
* project management: very open for people to steer, control and plan with us
* airplane building: we need also people helping us build all the planes
