The Isdefe Chair with the University of Jaén (UJA) is developing a series of projects linked to CETEDEX:
“Object identification and anomaly detection systems using satellite and zenithal images” (SIMIDAT research group).
Design and development of new advanced Deep Learning models for object identification and anomaly detection in terrain through satellite and zenithal images. The intelligent system will incorporate concepts related to Smart Data and Big Data to process large amounts of multimedia content to obtain accurate results in recognitions and identifications.
“Drone threat identification and classification systems in imaging” (GRAV research group).
Development of a drone that equipped with the appropriate hardware and programmed in a convenient way can be integrated into a network of mirror drones that in a coordinated way perform flights following programmed trajectories and that through computer vision hardware (GPU + CNNs) send alerts to a ground team when any threat is detected.
“Development of photovoltaic systems for remote power transmission using high power lasers” (AdPVTech research group).
High power remote photovoltaic optical transmission (HPOT). It involves the use of a collimated monochromatic light source to transfer power to a remote system through a photovoltaic optical converter (PCO). HPOT’s ability to deliver kilowatts of power to small apertures over distances of kilometers makes it a key technology for the development of entirely new paradigms for wireless power transmission.
“Obtaining definitions of relevant terms found in unstructured documents” (SINAI research group).
Extraction of definitions of relevant terms or technical terms in order to maintain a glossary of term definition pairs. The project aims to develop a system with the ability to identify relevant terms and their associated definition in pdf documents in order to maintain an updated glossary of research terms. For this purpose, the latest advances in single and multi-document information extraction will be developed in order to always obtain the most accurate definition of the relevant terms identified.
“Generation of robot traversable routes from 3D models in unstructured scenarios” (GGGJ research group).
To build a vector layer of a terrain area with high detail to be used by a rover in the planning of the near route in unstructured environments (cross country). Starting from the three-dimensional modeling of the environment (e.g. by processing the signal from on-board sensors on drones), algorithms will be designed and implemented to determine suitable transit areas for a Rover with given characteristics.
“Development of a last mile positioning or guidance system in denied GNSS environments” (GiiC research group).
The project aims to achieve that, without the help of GNSS systems, but knowing the area where the vehicle can be found, its position can be determined. The environment is GNSS denied and neither ground beacons nor radio frequency systems can be used. The use of various sensors and the use of available mapping of the area is proposed to address the solution. The system must be able to establish position for both stationary and moving vehicles.
