I-SENSE/ICCS coordinates the project and contributes six innovative technologies for enhanced CBRN-E response
TeamUP has successfully completed its second and final Full-Scale Trial (FST2), held from 19 to 23 October 2026 at the Hellenic Air Force Academy in Athens, Greece. The five-day exercise brought together first responders and project partners to test the project’s integrated technological solutions in a realistic simulated chemical and biological incident.
As Project Coordinator, the Institute of Communication and Computer Systems (ICCS), through its I-Sense Group, plays a central role in coordinating the consortium and contributing to the development of innovative technologies that support first responders throughout CBRN-E emergencies.
During FST2, participants tested the TeamUP toolkit across different stages of emergency response, from initial detection and assessment to triage, casualty care, decontamination and site clearance. Particular emphasis was placed on supporting first responders who may not have specialist CBRN-E training.
ICCS/I-Sense technological contributions
Within TeamUP, ICCS/I-Sense has developed key technological solutions:
- DOVER-UAV Chemical Detection System: UAV-based detection and monitoring of chemical threats.
- UAV-based Search and Rescue Platform: Aerial victim detection and situational awareness.
- First Responder Wearables and Environmental Sensors: Monitoring responder health, activity and environmental conditions.
- Digital Triage Toolkit: Digital victim identification, triage, tracking and monitoring.
- AR Glasses for First Responders: Hands-free access to operational information and digital triage support.
- DIM and Decontamination Tracker: Digital monitoring and tracking of decontamination operations.
The trial provided valuable insights into the performance and usability of these solutions, as well as their potential to improve situational awareness, information sharing and operational coordination. Feedback from participants will contribute to the project’s final evaluation.
Next stop: TeamUP’s final event in Munich
Following the successful completion of FST2, TeamUP is preparing for its final event during the European Commission’s CERIS Disaster Resilience Days, taking place in Munich from 24 to 26 November 2026.
The event will showcase the project’s technologies, results and key lessons learned to the wider disaster-resilience community. An online final event will also take place with presentations and videos of TeamUp’s solutions. More information about TeamUP’s participation and activities will be announced soon.
As project coordinator, ICCS/I-Sense Group is proud to have led this collaborative European effort and contributed to the development of innovative technologies that strengthen preparedness and response to CBRN-E threats.
