The 2nd Brazilian Swedish Workshop in Aeronautics and Defence will be held on 28th and 29th May 2015 at Aeronautics Institute of Technology (ITA), in São José dos Campos. The workshop is organized by ITA and the Swedish-Brazilian Research and Innovation Centre (CISB), with participation of Swedish and Brazilian researchers and industry.
Following the success of the first edition, this second edition aims at strengthening the collaboration links initiated in November 2014. The plenary session will bring an overview of what has been done and what is planned concerning a long-term research agenda between Swedish and Brazilian Universities. One of the purposes of this workshop is to make a survey of the Swedish-Brazilian cooperation in the areas covered by the first workshop. This activity will be performed in a set of thematic working groups that have task of mapping the on-going projects, identify how to support them, and define important challenges to be tackle by future projects. Another purpose is to start cooperation in an area that has not been covered in the first workshop: control and autonomous systems. This is an essential area for aircraft and defence industries due to the increasing relevance of unmanned vehicles for a broad range of applications. The workshop brings parallel sessions in sensor fusion & signal processing, control & system identification, and robotics & diagnosis.
