This master thesis project was realized by Pieter Beerten. In recent years, the popularity of autonomous robotic agents, commonly known as drones, has increasedimmensely. This trend is also visible within the National Defense Department, where these agents aregradually taking over the dangerous duties of soldiers. One of the main issues Read more…
Description:The goal of the EOxposure project is to build tools to quantify the exposure of population and economic assets to multiple risks using novel information layers from current and future Earth Observation (EO) missions, as well as the growing sensor web on the ground. The project, funded by European Union’s Read more…
We are partnering up with the Belgian Navy in the development of an innovation project around the use of smart glasses for Real-Time Remote Maintenance Assistance (RTRMA). The goal is to develop a solution to make communication between onboard technicians and remote experts easier when executing maintenance tasks at sea. Read more…
The objective of the SSAVE project is to develop a framework enabling shared situational awareness for maritime vessels. Advancements in connected and maritime vehicles are severely constrained by the limitations of existing communication methodologies and data exchange information. Due to the insecure nature of the current information sharing platform (like AIS) between Read more…
This master thesis project was realized by Brent De Decker during the academic year 2020-2021. This thesis explores the possibilities of combining localization and object detection using smart glasses and microcomputers. The question posed is whether these low-powered devices have the capabilities to perform these demanding tasks in parallel, and Read more…
