Missing the final 2nd FSX due to other obligations at home (owner being sick) Malpi was eager to attend the final Review Meeting in Brussels on the 4th of April 2023 and meet the Project Officer (PO) and old friends within the INGENIOUS project. For this important trip, it was necessary to dress up, smell good, and look sharp and prepared. Polar bears (SBFF) have learned the hard way never to travel on the same day to events/meetings so Malpi travelled the day before, contemplating over what was to come and tweaking the presentation over the end users’ requirements. Mapi was not happy that ..read more

From 28th to 30th of September 2022 the Small Scale Test #14 (SST#14) which took place at ERTZAINTZA’s training facilities in Brigada movil, Bilbao, Spain, focused on testing and validation of the INGENIOUS Smart Devices in the air and on the ground. During SST#14, our partners in FOI demonstrated the Multi-purpose Autonomous eXploring drone’s – MAX (FOI) ability to autonomously explore and map out a building, while continuously sending data (e.g. visual and thermal images) to the Ground Control Station – GCS (ITC) for analysis and visualisation. Improvements to MAX since the last field trial ..read more

The Small Scale Test #15 (SST#15) in Bilbao was the opportunity to test, for the first time, the triage systems (ICCS) consisting of the tag, the mobile application and the web platform. To do this, we simulated a terrorist attack with 6 victims involved, presenting various degrees of severity ranging from dead victims, vital emergency, or relative emergency. We used the devices and performed triage for each of them. The aim was to visualize on the regulation platform the synthesis of the information provided in the field by the application and the devices. We were then able to test the handli ..read more

The Small Scale Test #13 (SST #13) of the INGENIOUS project tested and evaluated the INGENIOUS K9 vest (ICCS) during the search of victims in damaged buildings which are too dangerous for entering for the first responders. The main application for the K9 vest in the damaged building scenario is the search for victims in partly destroyed or unstable buildings which are too dangerous for the first responders. In these cases, the first responders can´t follow the dogs inside the building and the dog search has to be autonomous by the dog. Without the K9 vest, the dog handlers can´t control if the ..read more

The importance of early warning of the presence of hazardous gases is of paramount importance for the safety of First Responders (FRs) and their operations. The gas sensor (Alpes Lasers & TUW) to be demonstrated within the INGENIOUS project needs to warn users in a simple and efficient manner. The sensor tested is truly portable and lightweight (less than 0.5 kg) and easy to use as its interface includes only a power button and an LED indicator. The system transmits the measured values of the two targeted gasses to the INGENIOUS platform enabling the users to be notified where exposure to ..read more
