We leaded the developments of research groups and contributions of engineering teams to the following international projects:
1995
“Ocean Marginal Exchange” (OMEX), EU Marine, Science and Technology Programme MAST III
1997 – 1999
“Baltic Sea System Study” (BASYS), EU Marine, Science and Technology Programme MAST III
2005
“Detection & identification of oil pollution in water” (OHMSETT, US Coast Guard)
2006 – 2008
FP6 Project CASAM “Civil Aircraft Security Against MANPADS”
2008 – 2010
“Detection and Evaluation of Oil Spills by Optical Methods” (DEOSOM), EU Accidental Marine Pollution ERA-NET (AMPERA) program
2009 – 2011
“The Potential of Currents for Environmental Management of the Baltic Sea Maritime Industry” (BALTIC WAY), EC R&D Programme to protect the Baltic Sea (BONUS)
2009 – 2014
FP7 Project DELICAT “Demonstration of LIDAR based Clear Air Turbulence detection”
2010 – 2014
FP7 Project BONAS “BOmb factory detection by Networks of Advanced Sensors”
The aim of BONAS is to design, develop and test a novel wireless sensors network for increasing citizen protection and homeland security against terrorist attacks, in particular against the threat posed by IED devices. The sensor network will focus on the detection of traces of precursors used in IED production (particulates, gases and/or waterborne) present in the environment surrounding the vicinity of a “bomb factory”.
2013 – 2015
“Development of an Oil Spill Detection System based on information and laser remote sensing technology”
International Project supported by Norway Grants under the programme “Green Industry Innovation”. LDI Innovation provided remote sensing solution based on proprietary patented technology of advanced shipboard Hyperspectral LiDARs (Light Detection And Ranging) further commercialized by the Company Ocean Visuals AS, more details...
2013 – 2016
EC FP7 Project EDEN “End-user Driven Demo for CBRNE”
In a world facing an increased risk of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and explosive (CBRNe) incidents or threats caused by man-made or natural hazards, CBRNe Security has become a high priority in the European Union and beyond over the past decade. The EDEN Demonstration Project, funded by the European Commission 7th Framework Research Programme on Secure Societies, represents the biggest research effort ever made in the CBRNe area in the European Union to provide solutions for improving CBRNe resilience and enhancing interoperability and effectiveness between CBRNe operators.
LDI Innovation provided optical sensors for instant detection of Biological and Chemical agents. The developments were demonstrated at the CBRNE Innovation Fair 2016, more details…
