EPIIC Innovation Call (Enhanced Pilot Interfaces & Interactions for fighter Cockpit) - Registration deadline = 2nd of February!

Published on | 1 year ago

Programmes Digital, Industry & Space Defence EDF

EPIIC project aims at tackling the huge challenges of the future air warfare and the collaborative combat by identifying, breeding and assessing highly innovative technologies and disruptive interactive modalities to be integrated to future fighter cockpits. Tomorrow, the presence of the man on board will be justified by his creativity, his ability to decide in uncertainty, under strong time constraints, with or without assistance, but also to recover from an unexpected technical failure.

The cockpit is where the pilot interacts with the system. It must be designed to get the job done quickly, efficiently and intuitively. The cockpit must also be capable of understanding the pilot's physiological, cognitive and emotional state, for example to anticipate phenomena impacting mission performance or flight safety (tunnelling, decision-making capacity).

Two thematic have been emphasised that will host subject to be proposed to the community through open-innovation calls: the crew monitoring and the innovative interaction modalities.

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE: This open call for innovation is open to a wide range of participants, including: Laboratories, Research Institutes, Startups, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), Large Companies.

The applicants for a possible participation shall be established in the European Union or associated countries, as per the European Defence Fund eligibility rules.

Registration deadline: 2nd of February 2024!

ROOT - Rolling Out OSNMA for the secure synchronization of Telecom networks

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022,  aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.

The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
