The SMARTVISION project

SmartVision is a three year research project funded by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia: FCT). 

This project is managed by IT in collaboration with theUniversidade da Madeira (UMA).

SmartVision intends to exploit the know-how of both academic institutions in order to provide an efficient product for video surveillance over wireless multi-hop networks to support various services like, traffic monitoring, fire detection and real-time events (such as natural disasters) broadcasting for the societies of the smart cities.

Video surveillance is an extremely demanding service in terms of quality of service provisioning, security and delay guarantees, and requires high-performance wireless networks. Towards this goal, SmartVision will employ advanced network coding and security techniques, exploiting the research capacities of its two academic partners.
