Innovative underwater robotics for monitoring and protection of Danube river pollution - ROBORIVER




 

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: ROBORIVER addresses the following common territorial challenges:

(1) The Danube environment is facing major impacts from pollution;

2) Need for enhancing the implementation of activities addressing research, investments and competitiveness of stakeholders taking innovative technologies of underwater robotics and gaining new skills; 

(3) Competitiveness and innovative approaches with deployment and uptake of respective technologies for detecting and sampling microplastics in various Danube riparian environments;

 (4) Insufficient related human skills development, weak involvement of stakeholders and interrelation of business and the public sector in innovative underwater robotics technologies.

EXPECTED RESULTS: The expected results of the main project are to create and deploy innovative underwater robotics and a newly developed training programme for specific innovative skills.

Output 1: Report on the state of play of innovative pollution monitoring and protection of the Danube River, including a state of play on the current innovative technologies deployment for monitoring of Danube River pollution and gap analysis and mapping the target groups of the main projects. 

Output 2: Main project work plan with its main and specific objectives, work breakdown, deliverables, outputs, roles of Project Partners, communication objectives, plan for meetings, as well as the potential project partnership and indicative budget plan.

Output 3: Report on funding possibilities including as analysis of funding sources for the main project and a road map of steps to be taken after finalisation of the seed money project.
