At the integration sprint of the E-DRZ consortium in march 2023 we improve the information captured by the human spotter (of the fire brigade) by extending him through a 360° drone i.e. the DJI Avata with an Insta360 on top of it. The UAV needs 3 minutes to capture the outdoor scenario and the hall from inside and outside. The hall ist about 70 x 20 meters. When the drone is landed we have all information in 360° degree at 5.7k as you can see it in the video. Furthermore it is a perfect documentation of the deployment scenario. In the next video we will show how to spatial localize the 360° video and how to generate a 3D point cloud from it.

The dataset is used for 3D environment modeling, i.e. for the generation of dense 3D point clouds and 3D models with PatchMatch algorithm and neural networks. Difficult for the modeling algorithm are the reflections of rain, water and snow, as well as windows and vehicle surface. In addition, lighting conditions are constantly changing.
Problem
- How to effectively use aerial robots to support rescue forces?
- How to achieve good flight characteristics and long flight times?
- How to enable simple and intuitive control?
- How to efficiently record image data of the environment?
- How to generate flight and image data for rescue forces?
Implementation:
The flying robot was designed in Autodesk Fusion360. In order to achieve high stability as well as low weight, the frame was milled from carbon. Mounts such as for GPS and 360° camera were 3D printed. A special feature is that the flying robot is not visible in the panoramic view of the 360° camera. The flight controller of the robot was set up using Ardupilot. The communication with the robot is done via MAVLink (UDP).To support different platforms, a software was realized as a web application. The front end was created using HTML, CSS and Javascript.
The back end is based on Flask-Socket-IO (Python). For the intelligent recognition of motor vehicles a micro controller with an integrated camera is used. For the post-processing of flight and video data a pipeline was implemented for automation.
Problem: A group of robots, called a swarm, is placed in an unknown environment and is supposed to explore it independently. The goal of the exploration is the creation of a common map.
Implementation
- Equipping six Kobuki robots with appropriate sensor technology, a large battery, a router and the Jetson board
- Setup of the Jetson-Boards with self-made ROS2 nodes and the set up mesh network
- Writing of launch files for the common start of all functions
- Reinforcement learning is used to train an AI that controls the swarm by selecting points for the robots to approach and navigating to them and navigating them there.
- Setting up a responsive website using Angular and the Bootstrap
Framework.
The disruptive nature of the changing media landscape and technology-driven advances in communication have led to innovative ways of organizing work in the information and communication industry. This reorganization of work is reflected in the concept of New Work, which rethinks working concepts, styles, and employee behavior. Based on a survey among staff in the information and communication industry (n = 380), this study investigates the status quo of the implementation of New Work measures and their effectiveness in helping companies reach organizational goals. The results show that New Work measures are widely adopted although there is still unused potential. Moreover, the study demonstrates that the implementation of New Work measures supports companies in achieving New Work goals as well as overall organizational goals in the contexts of agile management, change management, internal communication, and evaluation.
