A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
AGRARIAN aims to develop a prototype of an integrated system composed of a mobile ground unit and one or more UAV (Unmanned aerial vehicles) units. These units will coordinate to acquire data relating to soil conditions, environmental parameters, and...
Each year, the global occurrence of over a million seismic events poses a severe threat, resulting in significant fatalities and infrastructure damage. To counteract this challenge, advancing building technologies and implementing early warning...
Instrumented test rig for fine-tuning and optimization of servomechanisms and/or single functional components, in particular precision reducers, servomotors and compensation joints.
The servomechanisms can be validated on specific load laws with...
Spiral Bevel Gears (SBGs) play a significant role in transferring power between non-parallel shafts. Thanks to the high contact ratio, SBGs are smooth, quiet, and have the ability to bear high levels of torque and power; although, their complex...
Despite a vast and heterogeneous tangible cultural heritage such as the Italian one, cultural operators still denounce the lack of innovative tools able to facilitate the management of huge amounts of data and to integrate the various heterogeneous...
Rivers, drainage and irrigation channels maintenance produces high amounts of waste biomass that can be divided into two macro-types: wood residues that are normally recovered and supplied as fuel to biomass plants and herbaceous residues that are...
MetAGEAR was born from the initiative of the InterMech regional laboratories MO.RE. and MechLav in order to develop innovative tools for the design and manufacturing of gears and transmission to be made available for the industrial base. MetAGEAR is...
VIP Lab offers a human-centered design service based on an immersive 3D experience for viewing complex products and systems and simulating its behavior within an interactive virtual environment. The 3D models of the product can be displayed in 1:1...
This new technology permits to remotely control an automatic machine or a robot through a visual analysis of the operator’s postures. The system has been tested on two different use-cases: - in a first case, the system recognizes some postures of...
Mechanical parts are affected by geometric and dimensional variations. This variability affects the products’ final quality in terms of performance, process costs, reliability, and customer satisfaction. Geometric Product Specification (GPS) research...
The growing need for energy and raw material savings and the desire to increase the lifetime of mechanical systems stimulate tribology applied research, aimed to the development of anti-friction and anti-wear technological solutions. Mainly, in some...
Industrial robots are seldom capable to provide high precision in a mechanical machining process, thus are limited in their industrial use. The LaPIS laboratory @ INTERMECH-Mo.Re. proposes an integrated method for designing robotic systems, with high...
The implemented Social Business Intelligence system makes it possible to interpret and analyse unstructured texts generated and collected from the web, to extract qualitative and quantitative assessments. Specifically, the system exceeds the...
CIRI ICT laboratories have developed an innovative distributed Private Cloud Computing platform based on open-source software, as a valid alternative to expensive industrial solutions available on the market typically targeted to large size...
Implementation of a low cost embedded vision system with the use of smart cameras based on low-cost embedded hardware, where optics, acquisition sensor, processing and communication hardware are integrated in a single device. This aspect, on one hand...
The need has recently arisen in the industrial sector to provide systems and products with operative autonomy. For instance, in the field of logistics, automatic forklifts (AGV, Automatic Guided Vehicle) handle goods in total autonomy. The DIRO’...
