Mark your calendar: Final Demonstration of the Urban SAR Scenario of the ICARUS Project, 04/09/2015 at Marche-en-Famenne, Belgium

Fourth of September 2015 will see the final field trials of the robotic tools of the FP7 ICARUS Project, at Marche-en-Famenne, Belgium.

The field trials will showcase the ICARUS robotic tools, which have been developed for the Urban Search and Rescue scenario, demonstrating their capabilities to assist “human” SAR teams in the aftermath of a major disaster such as an earthquake.

Marche-en-Famenne is the training ground of the heavy SAR team of B-FAST, a member of the ICARUS consortium.

The presentations will be delivered in English.

An online registration facility will soon be available on this website, together with the demonstration programme. If you wish to be notified when the registration opens, please send an email to velascorodriguez@spacetecpartners.eu.
