Summation - (Sustainable Autonomous Systems and Solutions)

Programme 2021 - 2027 Interreg VI-A Sweden-Finland-Norway (AURORA)

Date of latest update: 2025-10-17

Description

Description (EN):

The Finnish Meteorological Institute, Centria University of Applied Sciences, University of Tromsø and Luleå University of Technology collaborate with the objective to increase SMEs' innovation capacity and the use of advanced technologies for their operations. UAV and UGV uses and technology development are central in a number of application areas e.g., tourism, reindeer husbandry and traffic. Complementary advanced technologies are also being investigated in relation to this. The chosen areas are still in early use of such solutions. The project is based on industrial needs and challenges where companies and organizations participate. The goal is therefore to also stimulate new services, increase SMEs' entrepreneurial abilities and inspire innovation processes based on advanced technology. Expected effects are that the target group increases their insights into how sustainable autonomous systems and solutions create benefits and safety in the businesses.

Expected Achievements (EN):

The project objective is to progress the innovation capacities and the uptake of advanced technologies among the target groups. Inspiration to new services will be provided by demonstrating practical use cases. The activities aim to promote entrepreneurial approaches, learning in practice and to spur reflections on innovative processes and methods based on the use of advanced technologies. The project proposal will thereby contribute to the Interreg Aurora programme priority area 1.1. by connecting technology development (UAV and UGV) and service development. Addressing specific problems related to accessibility and low carbon transport technologies. Further, since this project proposal cross-fertilize expertise in UAV/UGV technologies, weather-related applications in intelligent traffic, design and innovation processes and methods it contributes to the programme objective to drive sustainable growth and enable green and digital transition.
