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.
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’...
The development of customised test benches for R&D laboratories addresses the need by Businesses to reduce the time for new products' development and improvement of existing ones. To this end it is essential to have tools with a user-friendly...
Graphene is currently one of the most extensively studied materials in the world, both at scientific and industrial level. It consists of microscopic sheets of carbon atoms, having the thickness of a single atom and a lateral size which may reach...
The design decisions of many small and medium-sized companies that produce turbomachines in specific sectors are based more on experience than on an analytical approach. In fact, fluid dynamics simulation software often requires very costly licences...
In the industrial realm it is now possible to have large amounts of data in various applications, from process monitoring to adaptive control. This “data rich” environment is mainly supported by two factors: the continuous development of high...
A new way of conceiving assembly instructions for the operator: augmented reality applied to the industrial sector. Parts and assembly stage automatic recognition, interactive instructions, animations superimposed on reality, speech synthesis and...
