ADACORSA
Drones have a great potential in the civilian section, but this potential is currently limited by the fact that drones cannot yet operate reliably (semi-) autonomously beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) and furthermore it is not allowed. The primary goal of the research project “Airborne Data Collection on Resilient System Architectures” (ADACORSA) was to develop the technical components for drones that enable BVLOS flights. In flying ad-hoc networks (FANETs) it is essential to be able to check whether the information received is trustworthy or not. Imagine, for example, that an autonomously flying drone without contact to the operator receives a notification from another drone to initiate an emergency landing immediately – can this request be trusted? As part of the project, an authentication scheme and a trust management system was developed for the BVLOS use of drones in FANETs. At the end of the project, the experts concluded that this was the world’s first blockchain-based authentication procedure for drones.

AutoDrive
The AutoDrive project brought together an innovative pan-European ecosystem consisting of 61 partners representing leading semiconductor companies, vehicle manufacturers, electronic system integrators, renown research institutes, and SMEs. Key objective was the development of advanced electronic components and systems for autonomous vehicles to provide fail-operational functions using novel architectures with increased reliability to manage and balance complexity, cost, robustness, and flexibility. Safety and security are among biggest challenges of autonomous driving. The AutoDrive partners developed advanced fail-aware, fail-safe, and fail-operational electronic components, systems, and architectures for highly and fully automated driving, providing the implementation of safety in nine demonstrators being evaluated in different cities and countries across Europe. As part of the AutoDrive project, attack scenarios for autonomous vehicles were first identified and analysed. In the spirit of security by design, a blockchain-based authentication procedure was then developed for use in Car-2-X communication.
