"Key project contributions:
1 Advancement of state of the art in safety engineering, wireless communication and runtime monitoring – inspiring further research and disseminated in 68 scientific publications.
http://www.safecop.eu/?page_id=86(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)2 Demonstration of groundbreaking technologies in key industrial domains.
3 Identification of gaps between state of the art for safety analysis and what is required for development of cooperative systems.
4 Development of adequate wireless technologies to support the SafeCOP use cases.
5 Development of a reference architecture for future cooperative systems targeting how to support “safety-related cooperative functions”.
Main implications:
1 Cost reduction for development, deployment and runtime usage with specific support for certification.
2 Novel technology that has future market potential; IP products and prototypes including increased knowledge on protecting IP; and new Methods and Tools.
3 Experiences being integrated in both academic and industrial training. SafeCOP will affect the academic education with new fundamental knowledge for future technology.
The SafeCOP dissemination has included using alternative communication; YouTube, Social media, Poster Sessions & Conferences, OpenSource community, contacts with representatives of the innovation landscape in Europe, interacting with technical communities and the general public. For everyday life the project provides concrete impact by supporting and enabling deployment of smarter trustable systems. SafeCOP provides infrastructure to simplify the development. Smart Technology has a positive impact on the environment, by being a driver for lower use of resources to ensure sustainability and low emission. Environmental aspects may also be considered for the system as such. A traditional system will grow in size and thereby be oversized to be able to handle complex tasks. A SafeCOP-based system is typically smaller and optimized for its task. Instead of being oversized it collaborates with other systems to handle more complex tasks. This will further prolong the product's lifetime. SafeCOP reduces product complexity while at the same time allowing handling of increased system complexity. This will save environmental resources.
The future impact has potential importance for the EU industry and community. Here are some concrete examples:
• The “Wireless Safety & Security Layer” will be exploited in farming robotics systems together with an external partner. AgroIntelli (a Danish SME).

Louhi is a geospatial data services providing solutions to municipalities for infrastructure property and project management. Exploited by Sitowise.https://www.sitowise.com/en/services/smart-city/
• Software component for safe and robust collaborative and synchronized navigation of two robot platforms, improving potential of deploying a small USV (the Otter), which can extend the scope and reach more elusive survey location. Maritime Robotics exploit the technology with collaborating Unmanned Surface Vehicles and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Bathymetry.
