Hydro-Guard
Protected natural areas face growing pressure from illegal exploitation such as poaching and illegal fishing. In many parks these activities are carried out by boat. For operators, boats are an important means of transport: faster than travel by land, independent of infrastructure, and capable of reaching remote areas. There are over 34,000 restricted-access protected areas worldwide. Out of our survey 90% struggles with boat-based exploitation, 87% of the parks are searching to improve boat monitoring. To date, there is no tool that maps boat traffic, even though it plays a dominant role in exploitation.

SkyRescue
Emergency situations such as fires, earthquakes, floods, and collapsed buildings often leave victims trapped in hard-to-reach or hazardous environments. Current response methods rely heavily on human teams and ground-based equipment, which are slow, risky, and sometimes unable to deliver life-saving aid quickly. Delays in locating victims and providing critical supplies reduce survival chances and increase danger for both victims and responders. There is a clear need for a rapid, adaptive, and airborne system that can reach inaccessible areas, assess the situation, and provide immediate support to save lives.

RijLens
Driving students often repeat the same mistakes during lessons because feedback is mostly verbal and moment-based. After a lesson, students struggle to remember exactly what went wrong, when it happened, and why. Instructors also lack structured tools to document mistakes, track progress over time, and identify recurring patterns. This leads to inefficient learning, longer training periods, higher lesson costs, and increased stress for both students and instructors.

Colombia has thousands of poorly connected, remote, and isolated small towns and settlements. Many of these not even accesible by land, making supply runs and deliveries of life-saving medicine an arduous and unreliable endeavor. The status quo forces a choice between inefficient stockpiling leading to significant medical waste or the use of helicopters, which are cost-prohibitive and often unavailable. By using the power of UAVs, these communities can receive supplies on-demand instead of incurring the inefficiencies of stockpiling or not receiving them at all. Ensuring that geography is no longer a barrier to the outside world.

The problem with the future of cycling is threefold. Development of bicycle safety is neglected compared to other modes of transportation. Cars have seen the development of LiDAR mapping but there has been little effort to translate these for cyclists. Cyclists are increasingly sharing lanes with motorised vehicles creating an unsafe cycling environment. Despite safety policy efforts, annual casualties increased by ~50% 2021-2023. AVs endanger cyclists more than human drivers. AVs increase accident risk in poor visibility. AVs cause 525% more accidents during dawn/dusk, 11% more in rain and hit cyclists from behind, in 96% of conflicts.
