Imagine a high-tech security system for the ocean that doesn't just watch, but identifies every fish and microbe. It combines underwater cameras, DNA sampling, and crowdsourced data to create a real-time map of sea life. This allows us to see how the ocean is changing almost instantly instead of waiting months for lab results.
Current marine monitoring is slow and fragmented, relying on manual sampling and delayed lab analysis. This prevents governments and companies from making real-time decisions about ocean health and resource management.
A system for Operational Marine Biology combining genomics, imaging-biooptics, and edge-to-cloud IT infrastructure. It includes a training program for research infrastructure staff.
If you are a sensor manufacturer dealing with outdated biological detection tools — this project developed new imaging-biooptics and genomics sensing methods that improve commercial instruments for better market competitiveness.
If you are a consultancy dealing with slow data collection for government reports — this project developed an Operational Marine Biology system that enables rapid interpretation and dissemination of biodiversity data.
If you are an IT provider dealing with massive remote data loads from the ocean — this project developed an edge-to-cloud integration that processes biological data at the source before sending it to the cloud.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost structures for the sensors are not provided.
The project uses a network of 25 partners and world-class research infrastructures to validate the technology, suggesting a path toward large-scale operational use.
Based on available project data, the specific licensing terms are not mentioned, though the project involves 6 industry partners and 7 SMEs for exploitation.
The project runs from 2023-01-01 to 2026-12-31, with current work focusing on theoretical design and co-development.
The system is designed for edge-to-cloud integration and connects with the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
The consortium is heavily weighted toward research (12 partners) and universities (4), but maintains a strong commercial bridge with 6 industry partners and 7 SMEs. This 24% industry ratio indicates a clear intent to move research from the lab into commercial products across 13 different countries.
