Mission
Bringing maritime border security to new dimension
The mission of the SafeShore project is to tackle existing problems and gaps in coastal border surveillance by developing a system for detection of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) using state-of-the-art, low cost, and low-emission technology. The system will be integrated with existing systems and create a continuous detection line along the border to help border officials in preventing crime such trafficking of human beings and smuggling of drugs.
SafeShore
Objectives
The objective of SafeShore is to demonstrate the detection of RPAS, boats and humans on the sea shore beyond capabilities of conventional costal radars. SafeShore will scan the horizon and create above the protected area a virtual dome shield.
SafeShore
Concept
The SafeShore core solution is based on 3D LIDAR, all-new device that will be developed and integrated with passive acoustic and radio sensors and video analytics to achieve highly accurate detection of mini-RPAS.
SafeShore
Expected results
SafeShore will integrate cutting-edge technologies and security systems to satisfy, at affordable costs, the maritime border security requirements and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the border security.
