ONE CLASS!
Status date: 22 April 2024
ONE CLASS! is a “ONE STOP SHOP SATCOM-BASED SOLUTION” conceived to foster the use of distance learning in isolated schools/areas, to assist children hospitalized for medium to long-term stay, to support the multiclasses needs and facilitate social integration actions for Foreign Unaccompanied Minors (FUM) needing access to education and social inclusion programmes. Via a project extension (CCN3) a new service is added, providing a rapidly deployable packaged solution for education in emergencies, provisioned with telecommunication systems (“Portable Learning Space (PLS)”. The idea is to conceive, develop and operating a “one stop shop solution” offering to emergency context the opportunity to have a “classroom in place” completely equipped with Information and Communication Technology (ICT) devices and provisioned with an integrated telecommunication system (satellite, mobile, 5G) to start the process of social and cultural integration thanks to the access to digital educational and civil/cultural-oriented contents.
Data4Water
Status date: 20 May 2024
Data4Water addresses the intricate water challenges in India's Godavari River basin, a priority basin for the Water Resilience Coalition. The project aims to enhance water management by providing accurate river discharge forecasts through BWI’s services for various sectors. Targeting farmers, agribusinesses, and local authorities, the project seeks transformative solutions for the basin's diverse water-related issues, offering a holistic approach to address uncertainties, fluctuations, and climate impacts.
APPIDE
Status date: 06 May 2024
APPIDE is an AI-powered tool designed to increase the efficiency of thermographic inspections of photovoltaic plants (both ground- and roof-mounted). Using radiometric, RGB, and GPS data acquired from drones, APPIDE generates detailed reports in a matter of hours, identifying exactly where and what the performance problems are on solar sites. Our AI-based solution drastically reduces the inspection times by human inspection and increases the reliability of reports. Overall, APPIDE allows you to make more inspections with fewer human resources, maximising the return on investment of your drones and your business.
MIRORES
