Secure, Autonomous and AI-Based Systems
Secure, Autonomous and AI-Based Systems
The digital transformation and expansion of cyber-physical systems increasingly require more collaborative solutions and human-machine interaction. Cognitive computing also increases the autonomy of systems (e.g. autonomous vehicles and flying objects). At the same time, it also poses challenges in communication and interface design between components and systems, data acquisition and analysis using artificial intelligence (e.g. Big Data, machine learning), and IT security.
Research in this area is conducted primarily at the Affective and Cognitive Institute (ACI), Institute for Machine Learning and Analytics (IMLA), Institute for Unmanned Aerial Systems (IUAS), and the Institute of Reliable Embedded Systems and Communication Electronics (ivESK).
| Title | ELCOD - Endurance Low COst Drone |
| Short Name | INTERREG - ELCOD |
| Short Description | The overall objective of this project is to develop and improve knowledge on long range, low cost and environnmentally friendly UAV for long flight over the region for measurement campaign, survey application and related activities. The project will design, manufacture and operate a low cost high endurance UAV of a maximum MTOW of 25 kg by taking into account the specific scientific, technical and legal frameworks of the upper Rhine Region. It will be propelled by electric brushless motors combined with fuel cells or by optimized environment-friendly thermal engines. This UAV should be able to carry payload of mass |
