Marine Robotic InfraStructures Network :: Lessons Learned and Future Developments

2nd june, 16:00-16:30, UTC (Azores Time)

imagem

The H2020 EU Marine Robots project is organizing a side event to the All Atlantic meeting, June 2nd.

This is about the lessons learned and the future of marine robotics research infrastructures.  Please check the agenda

Registration is needed, but participation is more than welcome.


Summary

Our oceans are the least-explored region of planet Earth. Protection and sustainable development of ocean resources presents formidable challenges. Robots will play an increasingly key role in the near future and this role will expand and become more challenging as we extend into deeper, remote and hostile marine environments. Europe leads in many aspects of maritime, but lacks well integrated and coordinated oceanic robotic infrastructure or presence.

The marine-robotics industry is growing rapidly. It is a crucial high-value/high-cost sector with considerable entry barriers to R&D. The full growth potential of this industry will be greatly enhanced with access to shared robotic research infrastructure.

EUMarineRobots (EUMR) proposes an access-infrastructure for the deployment of a full-range of aerial, surface and sub-surface marine robotic assets, the combined value of which is far greater than the sum of their parts. EUMR will open transnational access to significant national marine robotics R&D assets across Europe.

Objectives

The main objective of the EUMR project is to open up key national and regional marine robotics research infrastructures (RIs) to all European researchers, from both academia and industry, ensuring their optimal use and joint development to establish a world-­class marine robotics integrated infrastructure. 

O1. The provision of access for researchers from academia and industry to state-of-the-art infrastructures
O2. The provision of access for researchers from academia and industry to large-scale sea experiments
O3. The provision of opportunities for researchers from academia and industry to develop and evaluate operating concepts for high added-value applications
O4. The provision of access for researchers from academia and industry to data
O5. Provide uniform access to RIs to facilitate distributed experimentation and testing and to contribute to standardisation
O6. Provide uniform training for users of the infrastructures
O7. Enhance the utilization of marine robotic infrastructures
O8. Contribute to address current and future societal marine challenges
O9. Develop business plans with the goal of ensuring sustainability of the proposed infrastructures
O10. Contribute to the extension of the “robotics revolution” to marine robotics
O11. Contribute to the cross-fertilization of ideas, tools, technologies, and methods
O12. Contribute to the efficient and effective utilization of infrastructures in Europe.
