The Interreg VI A
\nEmergency Drone project is realised by DNL-contact GmbH & Co. KG as lead partner
\nand eight other German and Dutch partners: Rhine-Waal University of Applied
\nSciences, Fire and Rescue Academy Bocholt, RF-Frontend GmbH, GeSa mbH, DLRG,
\nRobor Electronics BV, Spectro-AI BV and Veiligheidsregio Twente.<\/p>\n
\nWith a project
\nbudget of 5.2 million euro, the project consortium will develop and test
\ninnovative cross-border applications for the use of drones in the case of a
\ndisaster. The project is valid for 4 years. These drones must be able to be deployed
\neffectively and quickly in an emergency case. Special flight operations
\nsoftware is being developed for this purpose. In contrast to standard software,
\nit can be customised to the missions: The user selects a specific scenario and
\nall options and settings that are not required for this mission disappear in
\nthe background. This makes operation user-friendly and clear and will
\nalso make it easier for volunteers (volunteer fire brigades) to use drones, for
\nexample. <\/p>\n
\nThe drones will
\nbecome lifesavers in a emergency case.
\nThe collapse of
\nthe communications infrastructure is often a problem during a emergency
\nsituation. With the help of radio drones and radio transmission technology
\n(multi-hop transmission), an ad-hoc network for secure communication with
\nconnection to the mobile and WiFi network will be set up within a very short
\ntime.<\/p>\n
\nAn AI-based early
\nwarning system will be integrated into a drone-in-a-box system for the
\nprevention and automated early detection of forest fires. The AI can
\ndistinguish real flames from, for example, smoke plumes from field work or
\nbarbecues. In view of increasing
\nforest fires due to climate change, this prevention tool is of great
\nimportance.
\nA special process
\nis used to develop the interaction of several drones in drone swarms. The swarm
\nflies over large areas and generates and transmits 3D maps in real time.
\nThe interaction
\nbetween a drone with an underwater camera, a remote-controlled boat with
\nsensors and divers is being developed to detect drowning people in water.
\nAll of the above
\ndevelopments are continuously tested and trained in practice. <\/p>\n
\nThe DLRG, the Feuerwehr- und Rettungsakademie Bocholt and the Twente Fire Brigade will test the new
\ntechnologies on an ongoing basis so that practical experience can be directly
\nincorporated into the development. The district of Warendorf, the county of
\nGrafschaft Bentheim and the municipality of Enschede are associated partners in
\nthe project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","pr-category":[275],"pr-priority":[288],"pr-stat":[252,254],"class_list":["post-37856","projects","type-projects","status-publish","hentry","pr-category-high-tech-systems-materials-htsm-3","pr-priority-a-more-innovative-programme-area","pr-stat-neu","pr-stat-new"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/deutschland-nederland.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/37856","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/deutschland-nederland.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/deutschland-nederland.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/projects"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/deutschland-nederland.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37856"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"pr-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deutschland-nederland.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pr-category?post=37856"},{"taxonomy":"pr-priority","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deutschland-nederland.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pr-priority?post=37856"},{"taxonomy":"pr-stat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deutschland-nederland.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pr-stat?post=37856"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
