WP4 IoT Platform, Wearables and Social Media Sources

Objectives

WP4 will design and implement of solutions for First Responders, based on the use of IoT middleware and devices, for use during search and rescue operations. The focus will be steered towards the use of wearables for humans and animals (K9s), enabling the communication of sensory data between first responders and the fusion of generated data in order to create situational awareness and enhance the operational capabilities on site. As a result, this WP will pursue: a) The design and implementation of a robust and resilient computational and communication framework for the deployed IoT sensors, b) The provision of a compliant IoT middleware and devices, c) The definition and provision of wearables for humans and K9s and d) The means to ensure fusion of sensory data.
