The project involves 18 partners from Europe, Japan, South Korea and the USA, and kicked off on September 5, 2023, in Essen, Germany. To boost the efficiency and safety of first responders during life-saving missions, the SYNERGISE team will develop a Novel Integrated Toolkit for Collaborative Response and Enhanced Situational Awareness (NIT-CRES). The toolkit shall improve the management of natural and man-made disasters whilst boosting collaboration between first responders to increase mission effectiveness and victim detection at highly challenging and complex incident sites.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>18 partners from Europe, Japan, South Korea and the US will design, develop, integrate, deploy, test, validate and demonstrate the Novel Integrated Toolkit.

Through this unique collaboration between technical partners, industry, academics and first responders of various agencies, innovative technology will be developed to locate the victims more swiftly and with less risk for the people conducting the rescue operation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Evangelos Sdongos, Technical Coordinator of the project says \u201cSaving lives and ensuring safety of those responding has always been the main goal in disaster response. With SYNERGISE, we aim to offer a unique combination of technological capabilities that effectively contribute to that. The technologies to be delivered in the project will provide unmatched capabilities to address the operational needs and procedures of first responders\u2019 teams.
