The internet is expected to ultimately interconnect billions of people and trillions of devices. Over recent years, ‘web-of-objects’ and ‘internet-of-things’ initiatives have emerged, primarily aimed at machine-to-machine or device-to-device interactions using standard communications protocols. As yet, their rate of...
This project is developing a new software platform for crisis and disaster management – one that is based on open standards and designed to be fully interoperable with disaster-management systems around the world. As a unified interface for decision support, the platform is likely to generate great interest as an...

The lifewear project intends to improve the quality of life for everyday people by using wearable equipment and applications
Supporting users in creating aware, interactive and flowing experiences in an internet-of-things world. Enabling non-technical people to participate in the creation of applications for networked tangible objects.
The particular challenges of the mobile environment mean device resources, interaction possibilities and user attention are much restricted compared with fixed web-access. The uservice project proposes a new look at mobile information services to solve this problem. The intention is to enable businesses and...
The vicomo project is developing advanced video-interpretation algorithms to enhance images acquired with multiple camera systems. By modelling the context in which such systems are used, vicomo significantly improves the intelligence of visual systems and enables recognition of the behaviour of persons, objects and...
The hdtvnext project has developed all the technologies required for the complete end-to-end broadcasting chain– from professional tv studios and broadcasting equipment to consumer tvs – to handle next-generation ‘full hd’ high-definition tv signals. This technology meets the needs of broadcast and broadband internet...
