Happy New Year from the SYNERGISE project! 🎉 As we step into #2025, we reflect on the successes of the past year and look forward to the exciting challenges ahead. In November 2024, we completed our first Component Field Test in #Athens, where our innovative #SYNERGISE #tools were tested by our #firstresponder partners in real-world scenarios. Now, we’re gearing up for the next phase of testing. 🌍 From Athens to Poland this Spring This year, the second Component Field Test will take place in Poland in the Spring, hosted by our partners at CNBOP-PIB. We’re excited to continue testing our technologies in collaboration with our #firstresponders. 🔥 Sweden in the Summer Following Poland, the next test will be held in Sweden, hosted by Södertörns brandförsvarsförbund during the summer. 🇨🇭 Culminating in Switzerland Finally, towards the end of the year, all SYNERGISE tools will be tested together during the last Component Field Test in Switzerland, hosted by our partners at ETH Zürich. More details on each of these tests will be shared as the dates approach, so stay tuned for exciting updates! ✨ But That’s Not All In addition to these vital tests, the SYNERGISE project will be participating in numerous events and meetings throughout 2025, engaging with #stakeholders, sharing our #data, and continuing to drive #innovation in #disaster #response. Stay with us on this journey in 2025! 🚀 #DisasterResponse #Innovation #FirstResponders #Safety #Technology #crisismanagement #searchandrescue #disaster #emergencyresponse #robotics #horizoneurope 👨🚒 German Federal Agency for Technical Relief (THW) Tiina Ristmäe Södertörns brandförsvarsförbund Gezamenlijke Brandweer CNBOP-PIB Hellenic Rescue Team of Attica - Ελληνική Ομάδα Διάσωσης Αττικής ASTRIAL GmbH Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) Tohoku University SYSNAV TNO Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) ETRI VIRNECT ARTTIC Innovation ETH Zürich Wearin'Conextivity European Research Executive Agency (REA) AGILE NIGHTINGALE Project MED1stMR TeamAware Intrepid Project DIREKTION project (Horizon Europe) iProcureSecurity PCP Project CARMA EC Project POWERBASE project

🚨 New Video Alert on the SYNERGISE YouTube Channel! 🚨 Discover the impressive capabilities of #ANYmal, the advanced four-legged robot platform further refined by ETH Zürich's Robotic Systems Lab for the SYNERGISE project. ANYmal can navigate challenging terrains, overcome obstacles, travers water, and create real-time maps of its environment. Equipped with a six-axis robotic arm, GPS antenna, gas probe, and thermal camera, ANYmal is a game-changer for #disaster response scenarios. As part of the SYNERGISE project, ANYmal is also being adapted to deploy other robotic systems like the #OWL drone (Norges teknisk-naturvitenskapelige universitet (NTNU)) and the #SNAKE robot (Tohoku University), further enhancing its ability to assist in victim searches and hazard identification. 📽️ In this demonstration, you’ll see #ANYmal in action — grasping objects like a backpack. ETH Zürich also highlights their innovative control systems for seamless operation via controllers and teleoperation arms. 🎥 Watch the full video on our SYNERGISE YouTube channel here: https://bit.ly/3ZK17c5 #DisasterResponse #Innovation #FirstResponders #Safety #Technology #crisismanagement #searchandrescue #disaster #emergencyresponse #robotics #horizoneurope 👨🚒 German Federal Agency for Technical Relief (THW) Tiina Ristmäe Södertörns brandförsvarsförbund Gezamenlijke Brandweer CNBOP-PIB Hellenic Rescue Team of Attica - Ελληνική Ομάδα Διάσωσης Αττικής ASTRIAL GmbH Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) Tohoku University SYSNAV TNO Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) ETRI VIRNECT ARTTIC Innovation ETH Zürich Wearin'Conextivity European Research Executive Agency (REA)
