Osallistu EDA:n innovaatiokilpailuun 2021!

Euroopan puolustusvirasto EDA on julkaissut tämän vuoden innovaatiokilpailunsa teemalla "Innovative solutions & technologies on Human-Machine Interfaces enabling Human-Machine-Teaming for Defence".

Kilpailu on tarkoitettu yrityksille ja tutkimuslaitoksille. Tässä lyhyesti:

The EDA contest is rewarding companies and research entities who come up with innovative and ground-breaking technologies, products, processes or services applicable in the defence domain.Applicants are called to come up with stimulating innovative solutions & technologies on Human Machine Interfaces to enable Human Machine Teaming for Defence Applications in Air, Land and Maritime platforms. 

Examples of these technologies are

  • Gesture commands
  • Head and tracking; eye gesture and wide area eye tracking
  • Voice commands and 3-D audio
  • Immersive technologies such as virtual and augmented reality
  • Wearable human-machine-interfaces
  • Human multi-asset interaction
  • Haptic control and feedback
  • Virtual Assistants
  • Crew Monitoring System such as brain computing interface and pilot sensing and monitoring
  • Stress and health monitoring
  • Autonomous decision-making functions such as human-AI interaction.

Medical and casualties evacuation, supply chain and precision air drop or intelligence, surveillance & reconnaissance (ISR) are only some examples of domains where the innovation on these technologies could enable Human Machine Teaming for Defence operations.

The deadline for submitting applications is 31 August 2021. 

Voittaja saa 30 000 euroa. Viime vuoden voittajissa oli mukana mm. Tampereen yliopisto yhteistyössä virolaisen yrityksen kanssa.
