Making green buildings greener
Status date: 29 January 2021
Air quality impacts our health and our quality of life. Most of us spend 90% of their time indoors - but do we know if the air quality in our homes is good?
In this project, Airmine outlines smart home solutions to improve air quality in homes. We develop hyper-local outdoor air quality nowcasts and forecasts using data from our outdoor air quality sensors. By integrating local air quality data with smart home systems, the user can take predictive measures that can improve indoor home health.
GSOT
Status date: 16 September 2021
The main goal of this project is to create an augmented reality system for the 50ha Grunwald battlefield site in Poland. Visitors will be able to download the application to their smartphones and learn more about the history of the battle while visualising the deployment of all forces on site.
Saturnalia
Status date: 15 September 2021
Saturnalia offers unique, hard-to-find insights on fine wines all in one place. The mission is to create a living atlas of fine wines, completed with quantitative data. Such a reliable and transparent tool helps all wine lovers and professionals obtain strategic information and unique predictions not typically accessible within the wine sector.
A-QKD-S
Status date: 13 September 2021
This project defines an ‘Augmented Quantum Key Distribution (AQKD)’ Satellite Service that uses nanosatellites to deliver cryptographic keys for fractions of the cost of traditional satellite constellations. This service, rather than compete with large service providers, aims to augment these larger networks and could be used for on a wide range of end applications with multiple market verticals.
Tandem
Status date: 10 September 2021
Tandem is building the future of mobility for towns and small cities by turning existing local taxis, minibuses and coaches into smart, shared shuttles
Colibri
Status date: 10 September 2021
Colibri is a telemedicine service relying on satellite broadband communication to efficiently support healthcare services in white areas in terms of ground connectivity, combining fix telemedicine relays installed in villages, a vehicle equipped with medical equipment called “Consultobus” and home appliances for isolated people.
AGROMS
Status date: 08 September 2021
AGROMS aims to identify crop types among major ones, at the very beginning seed season, then to provide a forecast of the harvest size, by the mid-season, far before the actual harvest, with the best accuracy. All by using Artificial Intelligence.
RAPSODY
Status date: 19 November 2018
RAPSODY, a project led by TEKEVER, will demonstrate the use of remotely piloted aerial systems (RPAS) in a wide area maritime context, through the execution of search & rescue and pollution monitoring missions. The missions will be executed in near-real scenarios over the Atlantic Ocean. The Satcom-enabled RPAS will be fully prepared and customized to perform these maritime missions, including the integration of specific payloads and the usage of specially tailored mission-oriented data fusion, data compression and automatic feature recognition and identification algorithms.
WAMCam
Status date: 03 June 2019
Developed by Archangel Imaging, WAMCam is an innovative solution integrating satellite communication and machine learning technologies to radically improve wildlife monitoring and population studies. Researchers and conservationists working in remote regions can deploy AI-enabled cameras to remotely monitor animal traps and study areas. Receiving prompt notifications of the wildlife identified by the cameras revolutionizes the effectiveness of conservation studies.
