RELATED PROJECTS
- 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.
- The innovation and research laboratory of the Barcelona Faculty of Computer Science (inLab FIB) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) collaborated with ModpoW, a company specialised in wireless technologies, sensors and general electronics, to create a solution that optimises water and fertilizer usage in agriculture. This solution, which can potentially save over 30% of annual water and fertilizer consumption, monitors underground water data to draw up an irrigation recommendation for farmers, according to the real-time conditions of each plot.
