Compact High pErformance QUantum cascadE laseR Sensors (CHEQUERS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

In this proposal we describe a timely and disruptive solution to the long-standing and vexing problem of the rapid stand-off detection of explosive, toxic or otherwise hazardous materials which are present within potential- or post-terrorist attack or industrial accident sites. We will achieve this by realising highly sensitive, state-of-the-art handheld and tripod-mounted instruments based upon a ...

SEWAGE MONITORING SYSTEM FOR TRACKING SYNTHETIC DRUG LABORATORIES (microMole)

Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

The threat of synthetic drugs is one of the most significant current drug problems worldwide. Amphetamine-Type Stimulants (ATS) are the second most widely used drugs. Since 1990, ATS manufacturing has been reported from more than 70 countries worldwide and the figure keeps rising. In 2008, 80 % of the amphetamine production facilities dismantled worldwide were located in Europe (UNODC, 2010) (EMCC ...

Speaker Identification Integrated Project (SIIP)

Start date: May 1, 2014, End date: Apr 30, 2018,

SIIP is a break-through Suspect Identification solution based on a novel Speaker-Identification (SID) engine fusing multiple speech analytic algorithms (e.g. voiceprints recognition, Gender/Age/Language/Accent ID, Keyword/ Taxonomy spotting and Voice cloning detection). This Fused Speaker Identification will result in significantly higher true-positive speaker identification, reduced False-Positiv ...

EXplosives PrEcursor Defeat by Inhibitor Additives (EXPEDIA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

"The objectives of the EXPEDIA project are both to inhibit some frequently used explosive precursors and to increase the knowledge about “garage chemistry”. With this we mean, increasing the understanding of how terrorist’s create homemade explosives (HME), what chemicals they start from and where they find them in the open market. But also, to increase the understanding of how easily a HME can be ...

Fast and trustworthy Identity Delivery and check with ePassports leveraging Traveler privacy (FIDELITY)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2016,

Significant efforts have been invested to strengthen border ID checks with biometrics Travel Documents embedding electronic chips (ePassport). However, problems appeared regarding fraud in the ePassport issuing process, citizen losing control on their personal data, difficulties in certificates management, and shortcomings in convenience, speed, and efficiency of ID checks, including the access to ...

Hyperspectral imaging IED and explosives reconnaissance system (HYPERION)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

The objective with the HYPERION project is to develop and test a system concept for the on-site forensic analysis of an explosion. The forensic tools and procedures used will in majority be at safe stand-off detection distances. This will also include tools for identification of unexploded IEDs. The on-site data provided by the HYPERION system will be the type and amount of explosive used in the a ...

Rapid deployable, gas generator assisted inflatable mobile security kits for ballistic protection of European civilians against crime and terrorist attacks (RAPTOR)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

The objective of the proposal is the development of innovative and integrated, mobile and rapid deployable, gas generator assisted inflatable structures for ballistic protection of European civilians against security scenarios, such as crime and terrorist attacks. Depending on the scope, (e.g. the prevention of, or the response to, security scenarios by European security forces, such as protection ...

The Development and Validation of a Rapid Millifluidic DNA analysis system for forensic casework samples (MiDAS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2013,

MiDAS will deliver a self-contained, portable instrument to produce DNA database compatible results from crime samples in 2 hours. Automated processes for DNA analysis of large numbers of samples are now used in many of the EU member states; however the most efficient of these high throughput systems can take 3-5 days to produce DNA database-compliant profiles. In high profile crime and terrorism ...

FAST and efficient international disaster victim IDentification (FASTID)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

"An information management and decision support system for improved disaster victim identification (DVI) will be developed for crisis management. The system will speed up the correct identification of the injured and dead following disasters with multi-national victims Training methods for optimal DVI with the system will also be developed. The computer supported methodology will consist of a syst ...
