The Multi-robot Systems group (MRS) at the Czech Technical University in Prague has been busy testing drone swarms in the deserts of the United Arab Emirates over the past few weeks. The project seeks to explore the possible application of such massed drones in humanitarian search and rescue operations. To find out more, I spoke to the man in charge of the MRS group, Dr. Martin Saska.
“We were doing two projects there. The first one was focused on the swarming of micro-aerial vehicles. The task was to coordinate robots flying fully autonomously over the desert. They were tasked to explore the area and try to find some objects in the desert, which were pre-trained to the neural network that was carried on board of the vehicle.

A Central European project focusing on disinformation research will be based in Prague, led by experts from the Czech Technical University (ČVUT) and Charles University. It will be one of eight EU such centres selected by the European Commission to identify disinformation and study its influence on public opinion.
In part, the aim is to identify fake news using artificial intelligence (AI) and by strengthening digital and media education. The two Czech universities will cooperate with Slovakia’s Kempelen Institute of Intelligent Technologies (KInIT), the French press agency AFP and Polish partners. In its first two years, the Prague project will receive financial support from the EU and the Czech National Recovery Plan.
