The technological development in the last decade supported the detailed research on meteors and meteorites, using sky monitoring camera systems, automatized meteor detection, track identification and spectral recording during flight, sudden ionospheric disturbance monitoring (SID) or radar observation. The large sky coverage and information of high altitude winds together with computer modelling gave the possibility to recover recently fallen meteorites. Having these fresh, poorly weathered finds, available instruments in laboratories support the understanding of meteorites and parent bodies. In case of desintegrated meteoroids, chemical composition can be also recorded using dense network of meteor specteographs. Novel state of art laboratory simulations using high power terawatt-class lasers and other sophisticated experimental and theoretical approaches will allow precize and routine estimation of chemical composition and classification of even desintegrated meteoroids. The information from the new camera systems, spectrographs, SIDs and radars together with employement of laboratory facilities in the Czech Republic and Hungary could be linked to some already ongoing activities in the neighbouring countries. Drafting this idea during the presentation, the authors would like to call the community to discuss the possibility to extend such joint activity.
