6. REA Info Day on FP7 Security Research – Brussels - 16 September 2009 Security Project Example #1 SENSE: Smart Embedded Network of Sensing Entities (IST 5, Embedded Systems) Development of Methods, Tools and a Test Platform for the design, implementation and operation of Smart Adaptive Wireless Networks of Embedded Sensing Components. An Ambient Intelligent System which  Adapts to its Environment  Creates Ad-hoc Networks of Heterogeneous Components  Delivers Reliable Information to its Component Sensors and the User. The sensors cooperate to build and maintain a Coherent Global View from local information. The network is Scalable due to local information processing and sharing, and Self-organizes based on the physical placement of nodes. A Civil Security Monitoring Platform (Terminal Surveillance), will be developed (Video & Acoustic Sensing, Detection, Tracking) and installed in Krakow International Airport, to yield Real data and Performance goals from a realistic test environment. Consortium: ARC Seibersdorf (coordinator), ICT (TU-Wien), PARAGON LTD, LFME (Un. Of Patras), AGH-UST, Krakow Airport, Zdania Sp.zo.o., Un. of Galati, ai2 (Un. of Valencia).
