Summary

FOLDOUT aims to enhance border surveillance by developing a system that detects individuals through dense foliage using a combination of sensors. This technology will improve the efficiency of border management and contribute to search and rescue operations in challenging environments.

Objective

In the last years irregular migration has dramatically increased, and is no longer manageable with existing systems.

Improved methods for border surveillance are necessary to ensure an effective and efficient EU border management. FOLDOUT focus is on through foliage detection in the inner and outermost regions of the EU.

Foliage penetration is an unsolved important part of border surveillance.

By solving the problem of unreliable detections in such harsh environments border guards’ workloads a…
