Project Innovation

The Liveline project has a unique involvement of the human sciences sector. A Belgian research institute for family sciences, EHSAL-HIG, will contribute to the establishment of the user requirements collecting opinions from parents and children. The entire process is accompanied by experts from various human sciences disciplines like pedagogy, psychology, sociology and law.

The engineering teams are committed to take on their social responsibility in society and to take into account the social, psychological, legal and ethical aspects related to position information of vulnerable people and people in general. In this way, the particular European sensitivities related to privacy can be taken into account.

Technical innovation is the combination of EGNOS / EDAS for position determination with the latest security features applied to the position communication and storage. Security is included in the conceptual system design. Another technical feature of the service is the wide variety of technical hardware (mobile devices) that can be used. Moreover, the service can be requested from either fixed computers or from mobile devices.
