PickyRobot
Status date: 13 October 2022
We want to manufacture a harvesting tractor for strawberries. No one should do physically hard field work anymore. The Time has come to make a change. European companies should also be on the verge of this new technologies. We make use of high accuracy SatNav GNSS-technologies (GALILEO) to secure the robot operations.
MESPAC
Status date: 13 October 2022
MESPAC is a service suite that delivers to the offshore wind industry highly accurate, continuous and certified wind, wave and other metocean information for offshore wind farm sites. Based on Earth Observation Satellites, the quality of the data provided is suitable for bankability and advanced design activities for new marine energy projects.
MEANDAIR
Status date: 11 October 2022
Meandair provides pilots with relevant weather data. Before flight, a plan can be registered in the application and the necessary weather information will be downloaded. By pushing the flight button, just before take-off, the Meandair weather information travels along with pilots. Updates of the latest weather can be also downloaded during flight using the SATCOM communication devices. The weather data are also available to 3rd party application developers, behind easy to use programming interface.
