AN AI ON-DEMAND PLATFORM TO SUPPORT RESEARCH EXCELLENCE IN EUROPE
The rapid advancement of AI technologies has led the EU to decide on hosting a research environment focused on scientific and ethical excellence, which grows with the cooperation of members from within the EU and the assistance of academia and industry. The EU-funded AI4EUROPE project, in collaboration with AI4EU and other related projects, aims to develop this space by introducing an unbiased, open and cooperative platform from and for the European research community for excellent studies of AI. This platform will provide services ranging from data access, services and tools to cooperation with other researchers. The project will also enable a business model for guaranteeing its continued operation.
Cooperative robot teams for deformable goods transport and monitoring of rural environments

Real-Time Mapping from Endoscopic Video
Mapping of regions of importance is fundamental to interact with the environment, from satellite maps of glaciers to functional maps for GPS navigators. Autonomous vehicles also work by matching visual data to an existing map which needs to be constantly updated and extended. Now,
EndoMapper is developing a similar mapping system to support endoscopic procedures like colonoscopy, tumour biopsy, or even targeted drug delivery. To accomplish their world-first, the team must tackle the challenge of modelling non-rigidity. Unlike roads and byways, the body's
tissues and organs are prone to change as the endoscope moves. Taking advantage of new non-rigid mathematical models and machine learning, endoscopy may soon enter the realm of augmented virtual reality and autonomous navigation.

Robotic remanufacturing of deformable industrial products
This project will seek to introduce the process of REMANUFACTURING as part of the business model associated with industries, highlighting the importance of design for the development of products that are more easily repaired and/or recycled.
A "measure - analyse - decide - act" ecosystem to design and rehabilitate intelligent buildings (digital twins) which, as a first step, allows real-time monitoring of information on environmental quality, energy efficiency, occupation, etc. of the main spaces of the various campuses of the University of Zaragoza.
Physical Cognition for Intelligent Control and Safe Human-Robot Interaction
La digitalización de la industria depende del éxito de la integración de los trabajadores con los robots. También resulta importante utilizar robots capaces de ejecutar operaciones seguras con tiempos y costes mínimos de preparación de los robots y aumentar la flexibilidad de la configuración de los talleres. En el proyecto Sestosenso, financiado con fondos europeos, se desarrollará una nueva tecnología de detección, desde el soporte físico hasta los niveles de percepción cognitiva y control, para las próximas generaciones de robots colaborativos. La tecnología se basa en sensores táctiles y de proximidad integrados en el cuerpo del robot a fin de proporcionar una percepción táctil unificada del entorno, controlando así las acciones e interacciones del robot de forma segura y autónoma. El equipo de Sestosenso realizará tres demostraciones industriales en los ámbitos de la automovilística, la logística y la agricultura.
