TYPES (Towards transparency and privacy in the online advertising business) promotes solutions to protect users privacy through technologies and tools that will guarantee transparency, preserve privacy and define privacy solutions. The project also focuses on the incentive of users to control how service providers for advertising purposes use their data. The project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme. It was launched in May 2015 and is scheduled to run for 30 months. Its main mission is to define, implement and validate in pre-market status a holistic framework of technologies [...]

The objective of the ENCODER INNOVATION project is the development of a new generation of intelligent, flexible, customisable, robust, water-tight encoders for food production environments, primarily based on a new, increased-precision photonic nucleus embedded in plastic, an innovative, embedded, wireless monitoring and communication solution, and an optimised cover, which is guaranteed to be water-tight. Consortium formed by: HOHNER and Eurecat. General data Project ENCODER INNOVATION: New generation of encoders, technological innovation and change in the business model.

Robots are being highly used nowadays for goods transportation in warehouses and logistic scenarios. In some of them, such as in the aeronautic industry, the weight of the components require powerful AGVs to accomplish the task. Moreover the dimension of some components require more than one robot to carry out the task, such as, for example, the transportation of an airplane wing. Current commercial solutions accomplish this by mechanically attaching two robots. However, this somehow limits the size of the object that can be transported. In GEOMOVE project, we have gone beyond the state of the art to develop a wireless cooperative transportation [...]

MAIC project has developed a collaborative industrial mobile manipulator capable of adapting itself, in a multi-functional way, to an industrial production environment with the mission of assisting the operators in manipulating items of various weights and shapes. The objectives of the project give response to SEAT COMPONENTS’ need to introduce ergonomic improvements to various jobs (especially those which require repetitive, manual manipulation of items of considerable weight). MAIC improves plant productivity, as it facilitates an increase in the flow of materials between different processing and production stations. The flexibility of the robot poses a major advantage as it [...]

The general objective of the Robotrack project is the development of a new, economically and environmentally sustainable continuous track concept, designed especially to establish an innovative set-up process, completely automated through a new robotic system. This general objective responds to a strategic need of the current Spanish railway productive model, which greatly depends on the foreign market, by creating a new production chain, increasing competitiveness and improving industry exportation. Consortium formed by: VIAS, Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya, CEMOSA, Polytechnic University of Valencia and Eurecat. General data Project ROBOTRACK – Robotisation of set-up systems for a [...]

ChefMySelf project main goal is to develop a customizable and extensible (ICT) service ecosystem built around an automatic cooking solution to support older people in preparing meals and maintaining healthy eating habits. A food processor with an accessible interface, specially tailored for the elderly, will encourage them to self-care, accordingly to their particular nutrition requirements, and a social network focused on the topic of healthy aging and eating, will become a tool to motivate them to be active and maintaining existing social relationships and creating new ones. ChefMySelf will support elderly in developing culturally appropriate guidelines [...]

PREMIA will develop a system that allows for the combination of next generation sensory devices and platforms, focusing on the need to keep the cost of these devices down in order to have widespread market penetration. The user becomes the focus of the solution: while the artificial intelligence provides advanced data analysis to achieve greater energy-saving impacts, it also attempts to promote the active role of the user in achieving a lasting change in consumption habits through the completion of challenges and incentives. It is a collaborative project financed by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness [...]

The main objective of UNIKO is an innovative social research assistance platform that allows for increased research efficiency, providing the researchers with a tool that facilitates the search for and processing of entry data, covering all possible sources: from other research projects to direct feedback from the people that make up society in general or the research community. One of the most important aspects of the project is the development of a new, more extensive, information search system that will allow for the identification of not only bibliographic sources, but also other data sources that analyse relationships [...]

The objective of the OTBio Identity project is to develop an online biometric authentication system for critical security level applications as in the case of online voting. Within this project, the consortium, made up of Eurecat and SCYTL SECURE ELECTRONIC VOTING S.A., will create a user-authentication solution based on biometric, multi-factoral technology (with a mobile device being an essential element), as well as voter verification and identification in remote, electronic voting, providing citizens with access to the electoral processes and thereby improving the democratisation of public bodies and their communication with citizens. General data Project OTBio Identity. [...]

The main objective of the GERAR project is the development and evaluation of innovative, integrated health services for patients with rare illnesses, supported by intelligent ICT and network solutions. The use case of patients with PAH AND CTEPH will be considered as a starting point and the results will undergo in-depth analysis in order to adapt the proposed solution to another four, rare, pneumological and neurological illnesses: diffuse interstitial pulmonary disease (DIPD), cystic fibrosis (CF), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and multiple sclerosis (MS). The resulting GERAR platform will improve clinical management and quality of life for patients [...]

The BDigital2020 project management office expects to supply resources and boost the capabilities of the Project Management Office and R&D teams specialising in: • Boosting centre participation in the European H2020 programme proposals. • Increasing the returns on public funds obtained in relation to the previous Seventh Framework Programme. • Identifying and involving Spanish companies in European proposals—companies with prior European experience as well as companies that are new to the European programme. • Strengthening the Project Management Office with a new addition to the team and through thematic training that will help to improve proposal/project quality [...]

Kairos, intelligent systems for river basin supply management A decision support web platform (DSS) based on cloud services (SaaS), which, from a holistic perspective, facilitates the improvement of the decision-making process in the daily supply management of water resources. Resource management is carried out starting at production level, moving on to resource regulation and catchment, and finishing with assignment of resources for subsequent entry into the distribution network (the upper level of the water supply and distribution chain). The system recommendations provided are based on the estimated demand. Additionally, the restrictions imposed by the governance policies [...]

The project consists of the development of an integrated telemedicine system to manage patients with OSA syndrome. The system consists of a Web application, artificial intelligence algorithms and data mining as well as a mobile App Web 2.0 (MyOSA). Thanks to the online analysis of the data collected during the sleep, patients can make a continuous and systematic monitoring of their disease and the adherence. Also lung therapists at the hospital will be about the status of the patient and her/his adherence for a better following-up. General details Project MyOsa, Management and Treatment of Patients [...]
