• Development and implementation of intelligent handling procedures with improved perception, cognition and manipulation capabilities for a wide set of workpiece handling, thus augmenting the flexibility of production lines.
  • Development of smart tools (HW & SW) for planning and monitoring, based on workpiece features, handling agents’ capabilities and real time data, with the aim to decrease the reconfiguration costs.
  • Introduce enhanced robotics and multi-level process planning, based on Artificial Intelligence, for better productivity and resilience of production lines, to overcome recurrent changes.
  • Implementation of advanced methodologies for human centric design of interfaces, to improve working conditions and operator inclusion in teaching and operating of intelligent reconfigurable systems.
