Weak Signals in Border Management and Surveillance Technologies
Technology Foresight (TF) is increasingly part of contemporary policy-making and capacity building strategies, and Frontex recognizes the importance of forward planning. Having a systematic understanding of evolving technological trends and their impact on future European Border and Coast Guard (EBCG) capabilities is of great significance for the successful implementation of Frontex activities as outlined in the EBCG Regulation. Technology watch and technology detection are important components of the foresight activities to be undertaken.
Frontex Research and Innovation Unit has therefore expressed its interest in using the JRC’s TIM Analytics capacity for identifying and monitoring existing and emerging technological solutions relevant for the support of European Integrated Border Management. The main objective would be to assess challenges and opportunities in emerging technology and science that may address operational needs of the EBCG and enhance the management of the EU external borders.
Combining their respective expertise on border security and on technology detection and monitoring, Frontex and JRC are working together in analysing emerging technologies and issues in science in the field of border security.
