About this Event

This seminar explores how uncrewed aerial systems and advanced sensing technologies can be used to detect buried landmines and unexploded ordnance safely and efficiently. Drawing on real research and field experience, it will examine how drone mounted sensors, data fusion, and intelligent processing can reveal hidden explosive hazards without putting people at risk. The talk will cover the technical challenges of subsurface detection, the limits of current methods, and the potential for drone based approaches to transform humanitarian demining, post conflict recovery, and environmental safety. It is aimed at researchers, engineers, and anyone interested in how emerging technology can be applied to solve critical real world problems.
