The Final Workshop of the Eye in the Sky Project in the Media
Final Workshop of the Eye in the Sky Project
On December 15, 2023, the Final Workshop of the Eye in the Sky Project took place at the Forest Fire Research Laboratory in Lousã.
In addition to a presentation of the main achievements, a live demonstration of the Eye in the Sky solution was conducted. This demonstration involved the preparation of the balloon and its payload, consisting of an RGB camera. The balloon was launched, and the captured images were broadcasted live to monitors installed in the laboratory. Approximately 4 km from the launch site, a bonfire was ignited, duly captured in images that were transmitted to the mentioned monitors.
The event garnered significant attendance, and all participants expressed their interest and satisfaction with the project and the workshop itself.
Below, you will find some photographs from the event. A video covering the various activities will be available in due course.
Thanks to all participants.
