An international consortia coordinated by an Estonian R&D performing SME is looking for additional partners for an Eurostars project aiming to develop a swarm system for Autonomous Unmanned Micro Aerial Vehicles (AUMAV). The sought partner is expected to develop AUMAVs suitable for swarm solutions on mutually beneficial manner.
The objective of the project is to develop a swarm system for Autonomous Unmanned Micro Aerial Vehicles (AUMAV). The swarm solution would allow controlling (visual, thermal, etc.) large areas and add new functionality to AUMAVs. The coordinator has significant competence on the area through development of swarm management software systems for robots (e.g. cleaning robots). Now they want to advance into development of avionic swarms.

The consortium is looking for a partner, who would develop AUMAVs suitable for swarm solutions on mutually beneficial manner. The Estonian SME will develop necessary artificial intelligence, communication and swarm management software. Preferred partner should have advanced AUMAV technology and be located in a Eurostars participating country. Participation in swarm system development would allow AUMAV producer to advance the functionality of their products and move to new markets.

• Type of partner sought: Industry
• Specific area of activity of the partner: Aerospace
• Task to be performed: Development and production of AUMAVs suitable for swarm solutions
