CBRN Crime Scene Modeler (C2SM) 05-0122TD (2006 - 08)07-0216TA (2009 – 10)

Project Motivation

• Reduce exposure to first responders investigating CBRN crime scenes – Decontamination may destroy vital evidence

– Personal protection almost impossible in RN scenes

• It is essential to develop technologies that– Reduce the need to enter the scene by using

• Remotely controlled equipment• Long stand-off sensors

– Maximize responders’ productivity reducing thus the time in the scene and their exposure

– Provide situational awareness to operators of teleoperated equipment

– Create permanent digital records of the scene

C2SM-FAST (TA) objectives

• Production ready system– Advance technology from TRL-5 to TRL-7– Re-design for manufacturability, maintenance and support

• Revised concept of operations and user interfaces• Interfaces to additional CBRNE detectors

– RN – identification, E – vapour analysis• Improved 3D accuracy• Ruggedised and suitable for decontamination• Adapters for multiple robots• Testing in representative scenarios

– 3 field trials• 5 units will be built• Training simulator

– A “computer game” for training responders in using C2SM
