Project
EU DigiForest
Bringing Innovation to Forestry: Digiforest is a 3.5-year Horizon Europe project developing innovative robotics and analytics technology to enable sustainable forestry. It brings together partners working on aerial robots, walking robots, autonomous (lightweight) harvesters, as well as forestry decision makers and commercial companies to create a full data pipeline to digitize the state of forests (at scale) and to collect maps and inventories which can be used by foresters in more precise, sustainable, and modern ways.

euROBIN
Cognition-enabled transferable embodied AI is the main goal of the euROBIN research agenda and the network of excellence that emerges from it. Scientifically, euROBIN will take a new and integrated perspective in designing the future ecosystem of heterogeneous intelligent machines interacting with humans. Therefore, euROBIN will substantially advance four core scientific topics:
- InterAct
- Learning transfer
- Transferable knowledge
- Human-centered transfer
