RELATED PROJECTS
- The LENA project emerged with the aim of creating continuous learning algorithms in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) that are robust and flexible. This project is led by the Mobile Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Group (RAIG) from the Institute of Robotics and Industrial Informatics (IRI, CSIC-UPC) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC). LENA is focused on developing innovative technologies that overcome the current limitations in AI algorithms that, once trained, tend to show a certain degree of rigidity in the face of new, unexpected situations.
- A team of researchers from the Manufacturing Technologies Research Group (TECNOFAB) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) has participated in BRUVIT. The aim of this project is to develop and validate the ball burnishing process assisted by ultrasonic vibration to improve the hardness and surface integrity of parts on a parallel lathe.
- The research and innovation laboratory at the Barcelona School of Informatics (inLab FIB) of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is taking part, along with the distribution company Assolim, in the design of a test of concept to create optimised routes for each vehicle for transport on demand.
- The inLab FIB of the UPC is participating with the company Kapture Intelligence in a project to improve quality control systems in manufacture processes, based on a model of an artificial intelligence algorithm that detects when a part or product has suffered from a drop in quality level.
