ASSISTANCE proposes a holistic solution capable of offering different configuration modes for providing the tailored information outcome needed by each FR organization. With this solution, ASSISTANCE will enhance the FRs SA during their mitigation activities through the integration of new paradigms, tools and technologies (e.g. drones/robots equipped with different sensors, robust communications capabilities, etc.) with the main objective of increasing both their protection and their efficiency.

Current achievements

ASSISTANCE is at this stage at the end of its integration phase where all developed modules will be integrated in the whole ASSISTANCE Situation Awareness platform (SAP). The main modules already integrated are:

Sensors mounted on Drones and Robots: Different kind of sensors (e.g. cameras, chemical, meteorological, etc) has been integrated in the SAP.

Wearable sensors: Several wearable sensors (e.g. cameras, vital signs, GPS) have been also integrated in the SAP. In the following figures can be seen the real time video from a drone and vital signs information.

On the other hand, a CBRN module, a safe routing module and an advanced video fusion module have been also developed and integrated in the SAP. In the following figures these three modules can be seen:

As part of the Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme, ASSISTANCE and the related projects CURSOR, FASTER, INTREPID, PathoCERT, RESPOND-A, RESPONDRONE, Search & Rescue, SIXTHSENSE and INGENIOUS have received funding under the same topic SU-DRS02-2018-2019-2020 to develop technologies for first responders.
