This week, at least 355 people died when a 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit 
Pakistan. Rescue crews continue to search for survivors trapped in the 
rubble. The first and often most challenging step in recovering people 
from such situations is determining whether there is anyone to rescue.

A new device called the FINDER developed at the Jet Propulsion 
Laboratory aims to help by detecting heart beats underneath huge piles 
of rubble. The devices designer JPL's Jim Lux.
