RFSAT Statement on Brexit

We are disappointed and frustrated about the unrealistic strategy of the current conservative government with respect to breaking links with the European Union and the choices of the Prime Ministers, who have shown narcissistic behaviors, both in the past with Mrs Theresa May having started her work in office with posing as a model for Vogue, as well as by currently appointed one, Mr Boris Johnson, who has given a populist speech on the election day that had little relation with averting the grim economic realities for UK businesses after the Brexit. Both demonstrate clear lack of ability and vision to secure a stability of the British economy without its membership in the European Union.

Therefore RFSAT Ltd has made a difficult decision to cease the operations of the company within the borders of the United Kingdom as of the 31st of October 2019, that is on the day of the final Brexit deadline, should the UK government and its Prime Minister once again fail to deliver a safe exit from the EC, i.e. in case of failing to reach the agreement with the European Commission.

Our company has already taken precautionary measures and established "Research for Science, Art and Technology (RFSAT) Limited" in the Republic of Ireland, to become the center of its operations on and after the Brexit. This company will take over the European funded research activities from its UK based company, thus continuing its participation to European research with an aim to benefit all European citizens as well as global population with openly accessible research results produced in close collaboration both with its European partners and well as those worldwide.

The UK-based offices of RFSAT Ltd will stop operating after the final Brexit deadline, expecting to finalize the move to Ireland by dissolving its UK branch within the following later.

 UgCS from SPH Engineering

SPH Engineering offers unmanned systems integration services: building, acquiring and consulting on selection of air-frames, autopilots, payloads for particular application and performing proof of concept projects and software development. UgCS is a software for central management of all types and manufacturers of unmanned vehicles, enabling to control one or a fleet of drones on a single mission in multi operator mode and multi-platform environments. Ease of integration and adding support for new vehicles or payloads is achieved by modular architecture of UgCS. UgCS Educational Program supports both - drone operator training and research activities by providing ground station software for different UAV applications. UgCS is used in applications such as – search and rescue missions, environmental projects, terrain mapping, research of sensor applications and more!

 

As of 2017, the RFSAT has joined the UgCS Educational program in order to jointly develop solutions for autonomous multi-UAV (swarm) operations and targeting crisis situations, but applicable also to a wide range of mission critical operations. Initial developments will be demonstrated withing the ongoing FP7-SEC-AF3 and H2020-SEC-Reaching-Out projects.

EC has announced the funding of the new project titled "Reaching-Out: Demonstration of EU effective large scale threat and crisis management outside the EU", coordinated by Airbus Defence and Space SAS (France). This project is funded under Horizon'2020 Framework Secure Societies topic DRS-03-2015 "Crisis management topic 3: Demonstration activity on large scale disasters and crisis management and resilience of EU external assets against major identified threats or causes of crisis". Project duration is 39 months, starting in 2016.


RFSAT will participate as a member of the "Supplier Platform" to demonstrate its micro-UAS based aerial day-night surveillance, environmental monitoring and 3D modelling of large areas resulting from its ongoing activities in the security domain bringing in also multi-modal user interfaces and mixed-reality technologies from its earlier FP7-ICT-StrokeBack project.
