These Space-grown TOS are used for personalized medicine, disease modelling, drug research and (high-throughput) drug screening as well as toxicity testing.
ECOP
Status date: 17 May 2022
ECOPlayer (ECOP) - ecological, virtual educational platform for children and young people. The activity is based on the use of synergy resulting from the integration of modern satellite solutions aimed at creating an educational platform based on three methods of content presentation: Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and a combination of features of both solutions in the form of Mixed Reality.
The proposed product is based on two key space programmes carried out by ESA: Earth Observation as part of the Sentinel mission and GNSS global positioning systems. The proposed solution envisages exploiting the synergy of the Sentinel project's products with the Galileo and EGNOS satellite navigation systems to provide integrated geo-information to the users.
Safeblock
Status date: 02 May 2022
Safeblock improves Compliance Reporting by establishing physical frames of reference for IoT Data that can be assessed by both building owners and regulators. GNSS parent nodes anchor a reporting network of heterogeneous IoT sensors whose relationship to the parent nodes is established by data analysis of their ‘observed environment’. Data from compliance devices is stored immutably and data claims analysed before acceptance. Safeblock creates a record of safety data from source to approval which is transparent and auditable.
Safeblock
Status date: 27 November 2020
Building safety is opaque and insufficient with constant reports of those responsible for safety failing in their duties. In light of recent tragedies like the Grenfell fire, improving trust in building safety for all stakeholders is key to enabling a strong and continuous safety culture in the housing sector.
SenZitall
Status date: 17 May 2022
The SenZitall integrated solution is envisaged as a one-stop-shop for integrated pest management. The unique selling points of the provided system and service are: a flexible and reliable data transfer solution (terrestrial or satellite without the need for user intervention) ensuring that no data is lost, high modularity in sensor type and node topology with easy deployment of extra nodes at any point in the product life-cycle, and a low-cost energy harvesting solution supporting a fully independent system. The data received from the sensor network combined with the earth observation data provides the users with a sophisticated solution for improving their pest management practices (SDSS).
ARIES
Status date: 04 June 2021
A project for an efficient system for prevention, monitoring and response against wildfires and landslides emergencies with focus on satellite assets, terrestrial 5G networks, drones and next generation IoT sensors.
SenZitall
Status date: 15 June 2018
The SenZitall integrated solution is envisaged as a one-stop-shop for smart IPM and horticulture management. It will operate as a fully independent, low power WSN providing high resolution, near real-time environmental data as input to an integrated Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS). The sensors will run with a multi-constellation GNSS and a dual uplink SATCOM system.
WISE 5G
Status date: 17 May 2022
The enhanced performance of a 5G oriented connectivity on-board of Ferry Vessels based on the use of Ka HTS and Ku satellite bandwidth, as supplementary backhauling, can introduce on-board new families of services for the passengers, the crew and the Ferry itself.
