The open source for water safety and sea rescue innovation
The worlds first international maritime SAR database and knowledgebase.
This project aims to develop concepts for, and implementations of, a database of maritime search and rescue (SAR) knowledge. It seeks to preserve and share documented and undocumented helpful best-practices, know-how, lessons learned, recommendations, and general knowledge. Help make our seas safer through sharing knowledge.
The worlds first listing of water rescue literature from across the globe.
This project is producing a listing of maritime search & rescue (SAR) knowledge sources from different SAR groups and organizations around the world.
Studying how learning in Virtual and Augmented Reality generalises to skills needed to perform in real life.
This is a project for a master thesis or two. It is a part of a research project funded by Office of Naval Research Global, US. There is thus some funds to support travel and absorb expenses. Despite the description starting with the Background and below, there is a...
Finding a good construction and design for a coastal environment
For a good implementation of the use of drones in sea-rescue operations, there is a need to develop autonomous launching boxes for fixed-wing drones.
The open source for projects and innovations for safer waters and better sea rescue.
A work in progress from the Swedish Sea Rescue Society. A place for any and all projects related to sea rescue. A place to share, a place to find, a place for cooperations to form, a place to call for project work that needs to be done.
A Boat Driven and Powered Totally by Solar Energy
For a humanitarian and emergency aid outpost/ boat, hundreds of horsepower are not required for a 12,000 pound, forty foot boat such as the MOG Solar Electric Boat to move through the water safely. All electricity for drive and appliances comes from the solar array atop the boat, currently over...
Keeping our future unmanned planes on high allert.
To develop a system of remotely operated UAV:s – as described in the “Providence†project – we would have to design a remotely controlled launching mechanism housed in a protective box.
Experiences gained from a life raft exercise
A unique 30 hour exercise in collaboration between Chalmers and the Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS). 11 participants got to experience, as realistically as possible, an emergency situation at sea and to see which elements of risk that exists.
