An Innovative People Localization System for Safe Evacuation of Large Passenger Ships (LYNCEUS2MARKET)

Project Overview

LYNCEUS2MARKET project aims to demonstrate technology on large passenger ships for people localization for safe ship evacuation during emergency, and to create significant impact by saving passenger lives during maritime accidents. The project is based on the promising results developed in the FP7 EU Funded LYNCEUS project where innovative technologies were tested in lab and in small scale pilots. LYNCEUS2MARKET brings together European global players in the field of cruise ship owners, operators, ship builders, maritime equipment manufacturers, a classification society, industry associations and important technology organisations with the aim to implement the first market replication of these technologies and products and to create significant impact by saving passenger lives during maritime accidents.
