Enabling Autonomous Aerial Systems Through Operational Methods and Technological Enhancements
Project in brief
The EUSOME Excellence Hub is a 4-year European project that aims to revolutionize the air mobility ecosystem in the Southeast Mediterranean region by addressing specific regional challenges, such as transporting goods, surveilling complex landscapes, tackling fire risks, and monitoring traffic congestion.
A key novelty of the project is the establishment of the EUSOME Thematic Innovation Hub (TIH) which will explore open-access policies and market possibilities for project outputs. The EUSOME TIH will also develop a portfolio of consultancy services derived from soft skills cultivated in the project, offering valuable insights to entities entering the AAM market. Lastly, the EUSOME Hub will initiate an outreach program to promote public engagement and ensure widespread acceptance of the AAM technology.
The project’s results are expected to have significant scientific, economic, and societal impacts. From a scientific perspective, the project’s activities will boost human capacity by increasing the availability and quality of different workforce groups and raise excellence and multidisciplinary collaboration in science and technology. From an economic perspective, the project will create employment opportunities and will contribute to the growth of regional economies. Finally, from a societal perspective, the project will facilitate the advancement and adoption of AAM in the region, focusing on targeted use cases relevant to local realities.
