Das Projekt "Satellite Data Acquisition in the Blink of an Eye (BLINK)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Amphinicy doo za Racunalne Aktivnosti i Zastupanje durchgeführt. It is widely known that key information used in many industries such as meteorology, logistics, navigation, oil and gas, agriculture, ecology and others, comes from space, via Earth observation (EO) satellites. Having this data in a short time frame is becoming essential. Existing ground segment solutions are heavily based on hardware. They are not following technology advances like space hardware do which causes a bottleneck in EO data acquisition: required volume of data is not available quickly or with sufficient value! The objective of this proposal is to provide an innovative, completely software-based data acquisition solution for EO market - Blink, disruptive enough to compete with existing oligopoly in this market segment. The EO market is very interesting as it is being boosted by skyrocketing growth of start-ups in NewSpace industry like SpaceX, OneWeb and Planet, to name a few, and increasing trend of moving from thick hardware solutions towards flexible and dynamic software solutions. The expected project outcome is a Blink device, a software-based solution for EO ground stations which will enable assembling a full performant ground station at a fraction of time and cost that are usual at a time being. This will bring benefit not just to growing segment of start-up companies, but also to big governmental missions worldwide, including Copernicus - the EU flagship mission for Earth observation. Humanitarian missions will also benefit from Blink. Construction of a larger number of ground stations and a faster GS deployment will significantly reduce time to get satellite images of disaster-struck areas. Therefore, rescue teams will be able to act faster, and hence save thousands of lives and homes. The successful implementation of the project, which already successfully passed Phase 1, with the support of the Horizon 2020 SME Instrument will ensure the company's fast expansion of disruptive innovation for space technology market on EU level and beyond.
Das Projekt "Digital B2B marketplace for fast and efficient parcel delivery (DLIVER)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Dliver Group APS durchgeführt. For short-distance delivery of goods, only 40% of vehicle cargo capacity is used. The result is a staggering €68Bn in lost revenues for goods providers and goods transport companies annually. This is because most goods transportation companies still use basic spreadsheets that are unable to match in real-time the supply of vehicles with the demand for transport services. The negative impacts are two-fold: 1) high fuel-costs and subsequent high CO2 emissions for goods transport companies and; 2) high prices for deliveries for the sender. DLIVER is the World's first digital B2B marketplace that matches supply of carrier vans' capacity with demand for parcel delivery services - in a convenient, transparent and cost-efficient way. Thanks to our proprietary Machine Learning algorithms, DLIVER overcomes the known problems and has already been shown to increase the cargo capacity used by carrier vans significantly. It will disrupt the short-distance goods transport market by providing an effective, convenient and affordable solution. The aim of this project is to bring our DLIVER solution to European and international markets. Our current private Beta version is being used by +10 daily users in the Copenhagen metropolitan area, providing confirmation that our solution can increase the number of daily deliveries per driver by +12% and reduced fuel consumption by +10% per average daily turnover per vehicle. The objective of this Phase 1 project is to lay the foundation for scaling up our innovation to reach TRL9 and launch in Europe in 2021, build a profitable business and reduce the cost and carbon footprint of millions of deliveries. The business opportunity is significant. Our Total Addressable Market is €21.4Bn and will reach €27.1Bn by 2025. Through our scalable digital marketplace business model, we expect to capture a market share of 0.43% (of Serviceable Available Market), a turnover of €115.4M, EBITDA of €95.7M and additional employment of 152 people by 2025.
Das Projekt "Multi-spectral remote system for real-time alarm and monitoring of natural hazards (SENTINEL)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Techcom Srl durchgeführt. Techcom Srl was founded in Italy in 2017 with the aim to design and develop environmental monitoring solutions, providing installation and maintenance service for landslides, debris flows, sudden floods, avalanches, glaciers, etc. Over the past 10 years, our team of engineers and expert physicists have developed products and solutions based on the latest sensing technologies and integrated with our in-house software to serve customers with a high level of customization. We have evolved throughout the years performing greater than 100 land monitoring projects with national and international scope reaching greater than 50 active sites in 5 countries.
With the ambition to continuously provide solution to monitor territories with new disruptive technologies that will result in more accurate detection for the natural hazards, we seek to bring to the European market a new revolutionising monitoring system. Our innovation, SENTINEL, consists of a single device that integrates: (1) 3 complementary sensing technologies that allow optimum performance and coverage under any light and weather condition; (2) Artificial Intelligence software that delivers real-time decision support and action response adapted to the risk severity; and (3) data portal that is accessible on all devices with 24/7 live stream transmission to customers and interaction with local authorities and decision makers.
SENTINEL reduces by 75% equipment costs and 25% maintenance costs, gives greater than or equal to 90% accuracy and fastness, and provides recommendations based on AI to allow customers (e.g. local and regional municipals, civil protection, railways, ski resorts) to rapidly detect and give an alert response within seconds, thus guaranteeing security and safety at all time.
SENTINEL will bring our company international expansion and growth, reaching + Euro 11.07 M in revenues by 2026 while creating 22 jobs 5 years after market launch.
