Implementing microsensors for a safer urban environment (SYSTEM)

SYSTEM: SYnergy of integrated Sensors and Technologies for urban sEcured environMent

The SYSTEM project designed and demonstrated a data fusion system for the continuous monitoring of threats associated to the manufacturing of explosives and to the production and handling of synthetic drugs. Data fusion from different sensor networks provided Law Enforcement Agencies with enriched information to assess the potential occurrence of a criminal activity in an identified area such as home-made explosives and synthetic drugs manufacturing by detecting intermediates and impurities of the production process and precursors used for their synthesis, identifying abnormal use of chemicals transported/provided within the covered urban areas. Sensichips contributed with its Water and Air learning microsensors for real-time continuous monitoring of those substances, with classification and quantification estimates of the detected compound.
