RELATED PROJECTS
- UPC, the Port of Barcelona and Siport21 will create an innovative operational traffic management system based on artificial intelligence and machine learning. This will be developed within the Compass+ project, which has been recognised as a pre-commercial project in the second call of the innovation fund managed by Ports of the State − Ports 4.0. The aim of the fund is to enhance efficiency and safety in port operations by integrating disruptive technologies that will drive the ports of the future.
- The EU.FFICIENT (European Communities of Facilitators focused on Co-creation training, Networking and Hands-on learning) project, launched in January 2024, aspires to transform and enhance the co-creation landscape across Europe. Funded under the EU framework, the project brings together a consortium of 16 partners from 12 countries, boasting a diverse blend of academic, industrial and public sector partners. The initiative, with CIT UPC standing as a one of key participants, represents an investment in the future of collaborative innovation.
- The Heat and Mass Transfer Technology Center (CTTC) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) participated in the Economic COgeneration by Efficiently COncentrated SUNlight (ECOSUN) project to develop a low-cost, concentrated thermal and photovoltaic cogeneration system that increases the system’s electrical efficiency.
- The Centre for Advanced Technologies in Mechanics (CATMech) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is involved in a project to explore additive manufacturing technology with concrete to provide innovative solutions to the construction market. The project, called ADRIANO, aims to develop a real-time control system for the concrete manufacturing process, to estimate the expected outcome and anticipate decision-making on its various stages.
