Developing the Croatian Underwater RoboticsDeveloping the Croatian Underwater RoboticsResearch PotentialResearch Potential -- AbstractAbstract (1of 2)(1of 2)

CURE

Aim: reinforcing the Croatian S&T potential in underwater robotics througha coherent set of measures.

Measures: support and mobilization of human and material resources; develop strategic partnerships with well known research centers in EU; dissemination of scientific information and research results;

facilitate communication between UNIZG-FER-LABUST and researchentities having similar scientific interests in EU and also otherstakeholders in the region;

improve LABUST responses to socio-economic needs of the country andregion especially related to Adriatic Sea.

Goal: Preparing the ground for R&D integration of the LABUST into FP7program.

Integration through: R&D proposals, scientific cooperation or business contacts based on technological innovation.

AbstractAbstract (2 of 2)(2 of 2)

CURE

CURE will enable additional visibility impact for running projects in creating and supporting relevant public

relations (PR) so as to facilitate dissemination, transfer and exploitation of project results, the participation of regional organizations in the EU R&D program.

Expected impacts are in upgrading the RTD capacity and capability i.e. the human potential, employment of new researchers and training of research staff, improvement of research management, strengthening the research infrastructure and the quality of research, enabling better integration in the ERA.

Partnership with research groups in EU should contribute toregional capacity building and will improve LABUST underwaterrobotics research potential.

Breaking the surface 2011 (Breaking the surface 2011 (http://bst.fer.hrhttp://bst.fer.hr ))MurterMurter--Kornati, September 19Kornati, September 19thth till 25till 25thth September, 2011.September, 2011.

A week long field training with four disciplines joined togetherin-field for the benefit of all involved (underwater robotics,marine biology/ecology, underwater archaeology, maritimesecurity).

Underwater robotics experts interest is to detect needs of

various users of UST to be able to improve them for their use

Marine biology/ecology; maritime archaeology and maritimesecurity experts should be informed about new developmentsand possibilities of UST for their advantage in their work

All could benefit from echange of information from variousfields of interest

New ideas and possible new cooperation among variousplayers in the region and broader, could open some newopportunities and benefits for all involved.

Laboratory for Underwater Systems and Technologies

- LABUST (Head of laboratory Prof. Z. Vuki)

Established in 2005 with the goals of: R & D of underwater systems and technologies

Education in the domain of navigation, guidance and control of unmannedmarine vessels (surface and underwater),

Interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary cooperation for the purpose of

underwater systems and technologies,

Promotion of high technology in sustainable development and exploitation ofthe sea, sub-sea, rivers, lakes, technical waters, water reservoirs as well as inmaritime security.

Involving students, experts, researchers and scientists into interdsciplinarydomain of high technology sustainable development in underwater areas.

Environmental protection, protection of cultural heritage (archaeology, etc.),preservation of fish and biological variety, protection and security of portsand waterways using high technology

Development of UUVs for specific applications
