The RPASinAir project has the strategic objective of developing the use of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) and innovative sensors connected to airborne, satellite or public archive systems, which are capable of reporting critical events and of helping to prevent and manage emergencies (floods, landslides, earthquakes, industrial accidents).
The project strengthens the mission of supporting the development of the aerospace industry entrusted to Taranto-Grottaglie airport in the National Airport Plan approved by the Italian Ministry of Transport in 2016.
Development of advanced features of traffic control applications (ATC) for the integrated management of air traffic with and without pilot on board. Creation of a center for the collection, management and processing of Earth Observation data in an integrated logic with other data sources (satellites, ...) capable of processing the data acquired by the SAPR in real-time or near real-time and providing services monitoring of the territory, risk prevention and emergency management.
Development of new sensors designed to detect sources of risk for the territory: hydrogeological risk, cryospheric risk and risk related to the presence of dust (volcanic or from fires) in the atmosphere.
Testing and demonstration of the systems developed in the project (SE, ATM, applications, sensors) in laboratory and real environments with the execution of missions with RPAS to demonstrate the achievement of the expected performances.
EnginSoft was involved in developing a methodology to manage the paths of Remote Piloted Aircraft Systems with respect to unforeseen events.

Some of our competences in research and technology transfer
Research project
The ForZDM project developed and demonstrated tools to support the rapid implementation of Zero-Defect Manufacturing solutions in industry, and to design more competitive and robust multi-stage manufacturing systems.
Research project
The initiative is set to transform the European remanufacturing industry by addressing its current limitations and setting new standards for human-centric innovation. It aims to develop and demonstrate a novel remanufacturing paradigm which is inherently safe for humans, target-driven in regeneration and certification, flexible in handling post-use parts variability, and robust for replication in new circular business cases. To achieve these objectives, rEUman partners will develop cutting-edge remanufacturing approaches and integrate them into the value chains.
Research project
Exergy International Srl is exploring innovative sealing systems to enhance ORC turbine efficiency, focusing on a novel brush seal design. This project aims to reduce leakage and improve energy recovery in waste heat applications.
