Detect and Recognize Mines and IEDs hidden in the environment

ongoing

The DeterMine (Detect and Recognize Mines and IEDs hidden in the environment) project is targeted to generate knowledge and to contribute to the strengthening of the EU knowledgebase and creation of the standardised benchmarks for evaluation of the landmine and IEDs detection systems, to ultimately pave the way for enhanced protection of personnel and infrastructures and freedom of actions for military forces. DeterMine aims to achieve this goal by using the technological challenge to verify the concept for a modular multisensory and multiplatform solution for hidden threats detection and identification, gathering and sharing data from the test fields and working on data improvement by applying AI and data fusion techniques, pursuing as an overall objective the improvement of the major metrics: detection accuracy and hidden threat classification and feature estimation. The project is driven by an incremental approach allowing to test different technologies, sensor combinations and data fusion algorithms.
