SEMFIRE

Name/Tagline
Segurança, Exploração e Manutenção de Florestas com Integração de Robótica Ecológica

Description
SEMFIRE (Safety, Exploration and Maintenance of Forests with the Integration of Ecological Robotics) proposes the development of a support robotic system to reduce fuel accumulation (e.g., forest debris), thus assisting in landscaping maintenance tasks. This is an application domain with an unquestionable beneficial impact at the economic, social and environmental level, as the proposed project will contribute by significantly reducing wildfire hazard potential. SEMFIRE addresses several disciplines to succeed in fire prevention by benefiting from disruptive technologies and novel ecological robotic approaches. Focus will be placed in the development of a multi-robot system, combined with pervasive local positioning, multi-robot navigation and coordination in forests, and an innovative artificial perception architecture.
