ASPIS - Autonomous Surveillance in Public transport Infrastructure Systems (ASPIS)
Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
"The present proposal aims at the development of a prototype surveillance system based on autonomous, smart monitoring devices that capture data only upon the occurrence of an incident, potentially dangerous for the pas-sengers (like an explosion blast or the triggering of the fire detector). When triggered, these devices propagate the triggering to their neighbouring de-vices and send an alarm. S ...
