PERNASVIP

The PERNASVIP project aims to enhance the autonomy of visually impaired people by developing a reliable GNSS-based navigation system. Over 18 months, it will improve a portable guiding device using technologies like EGNOS, integrating multimodal routing and validating its use in urban settings. The project targets a potential market of over 13 million users.

GRACE

The distribution of child sexual exploitation materials is an abhorrent crime. Online service providers' and users’ suspicious material detection technologies are improving. However, the huge amount of referrals collected by law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in combination with limited human resources, manual analysis and the 4 000 % increase in referrals since 2014 prevent their investigative capacity. The EU-funded GRACE project will apply proven techniques in machine learning to the referral and analysis elaboration while appropriately managing the technical, ethical and legal challenges unique to fighting child sexual exploitation. The project will use resources from EUROPOL and its nine Member State LEAs to provide early, frequent and flexible results that will be handed back to EUROPOL and Member State LEAs, helping to ensure their future technological autonomy.

AIDA

Advanced technologies are increasingly used in criminal activities. Identifying, preventing and fighting modern crime demands the implementation of pioneering technologies and methods. The EU-funded AIDA project is focussing on cybercrime and terrorism by approaching specific issues related to law enforcement agencies (LEAs) using pioneering machine learning and artificial intelligence methods. The project will deliver a descriptive and predictive data analytics platform and related tools which will prevent, identify, analyse and combat cybercrime and terrorist activities. The platform is based on the fundamental technology applied to Big Data analytics provided with AI and deep learning techniques expanded and tailored with additional crime-specific capabilities and tools. The system will be delivered to LEAs through a safe sandbox environment, improving the technological readiness level in operational conditions with real data.

5G-LOGINNOV

The emergence of 5G technology has increased efficiency in many sectors including city ports, resulting in business innovation, economic development and environmental benefits. The EU-funded 5G-LOGINNOV project will design an innovative scheme to integrate and validate CAD/CAM technologies related to the industry 4.0 and port domains, by creating new opportunities for logistics value chain innovation. The innovation is supported by 5G technological blocks, including a new generation of 5G terminals, new types of Internet of Things 5G instruments, data analytics, next-generation traffic management and emerging 5G networks allowing ports to manage upcoming and future capacity, traffic, efficiency and environmental challenges. The advanced capabilities of 5G in wireless connectivity and Core network agility will allow city ports to significantly optimise operations and reduce environmental impact on the city.

5D-AEROSAFE

Integrating drone flights in restricted areas where numerous commercial planes operate is challenging. The EU-funded 5D-AeroSafe project is a 36-month endeavour that will develop a set of drone-based services and solutions to increase the safety and security of airports and waterways. It will also focus on ways of reducing operational costs through the offering of the following services: CNS/GNSS equipment inspection and calibration, security checks at the airport perimeter and approaches as well as runway, taxiway, aircraft and waterway inspections. The new system will be assessed and validated through three operational test pilots at different stages of the project, taking place in real locations and under near-real conditions.

ASGARD

ASGARD aims to enhance law enforcement agencies' technological autonomy by openly transferring technologies focused on forensics, intelligence, and foresight. The project fosters the use of big data and innovative solutions through a restricted community of end-users collaborating with developers. It emphasizes functionality, ethics, privacy, and rapid technology adoption using agile methods and hackathons to showcase results.

PLATAFORMA MULTIESPECTRAL

Advanced infrastructure designed for the inspection, classification, and handling of moving components in industrial environments

bG21

Implementation and applications to the study of metabolic alterations in covid-19 and metabolic syndrome.

OSADAPT

OSADAPT will offer adaptive support technologies for robot-assisted motor rehabilitation, aiming to improve patient adherence to prescribed exercises and to monitor their progress. Following the prescription of healthcare institutions (IIS) and a patient-centered methodology, the project will develop technologies for advanced rehabilitation, recognition of the patient’s physical, emotional, and cognitive state, an intelligent motivational agent, adaptive therapy control using AI processing, and real-time outcome analysis.

ITXURA

The integration of computer vision in industry follows a trial-and-error approach, which increases costs and time. Its development is particularly challenging due to the lack of models and simulators that allow for predicting its behavior in industrial environments. ITXURA will investigate methodologies to model, characterize, and optimize these systems, enabling the evaluation of their feasibility before implementation and facilitating efficient and accurate integration.

GIZAKITU

The GIZAKITU project aims to advance research in intelligent and flexible factories where humans and machines, represented by digital twins and autonomous AI agents, collaborate efficiently. Its approach combines human integration, multi-agent intelligence, and flexible production standards to overcome current challenges in industrial digitalization and automation.

CICe2025

The CICe2025 project aims to accelerate the discovery and development of advanced materials for energy storage and conversion by applying computational screening, artificial intelligence, automated synthesis, and experimental validation. It focuses on Li-S batteries, flow batteries, CO₂-to-ethanol conversion, and green hydrogen production, prioritizing sustainable materials. Its innovative approach combines inter-technological descriptors, advanced modeling, and high-throughput methodologies.
