Professor Domagoj Tolić attended Breaking The Surface 2017
from October 3 until October 5, 2017 in Biograd na Moru. Breaking the Surface
is international and interdisciplinary field workshop of maritime robotics and
applications. Besides renewing existing contacts and collaborations as well as
establishing new ones, his visit was also a part of the MORUS consortium
meeting. Namely, Domagoj is a researcher on the project named Unmanned System
for Maritime Security and Environmental Monitoring (MORUS), which is a project
sponsored by NATO's Emerging Security Challenges Division in the framework of
the Science for Peace and Security Programme as Multi Year Project under G. A.
number 984807 (https://www.fer.unizg.hr/morus). This consortium meeting was related to the upcoming experimental trials that
will be held this November in the army facilities in Udbina, Croatia. The
principal benefit of the BTS workshops is their relatively small size and
rather informal atmosphere, which allows one to meet any workshop participant
regardless of their status and importance in the robotics. Consequently, a
number of new unforeseen and exciting collaborations are established every
year.
