R.O.B.

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: OrbitusRobotics

Home: California, United States

ROB is the first droid with all Mac hardware. Using only Apple sdk's and api's I am able to create magic between components. Thanks to the new networking.framework, I am able to auto connect with bonjour services between my droid, the controllers, and even other bots. I wanted to make the simplest and most affordable Droid, I wanted to bring all of our imaginations to life and I wanted to push the boundaries of technology just a bit further and beyond reach. ROB is a Droid with toddler level neural network intelligence. His chat server was built with a python CakeChat neural emotion engine which gives him lots of interesting things to say! R.O.B. runs on OSX and has LiFePO4 80 Ah batteries for hours mobility with the finest BLDC motors that Shenzhen, China has to offer.

TRACE – EU Project

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia - UNIMORE

 

UNIMORE – Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia parteciperà al Make it Fair di Roma per presentare le attività di ricerca e innovazione condotte nell'ambito del progetto europeo TRACE, focalizzandosi sul caso d'uso italiano dedicato alla logistica urbana sostenibile. Nel progetto TRACE, UNIMORE coordina lo sviluppo di un sistema di platooning semi-autonomo per cargo bike elettriche, dove un operatore guida una bicicletta leader mentre le altre seguono in modalità autonoma. Questo sistema è supportato da un software avanzato sviluppato internamente, che consente la gestione delle consegne dell'ultimo miglio in modo efficiente e a basse emissioni. Per monitorare e visualizzare in tempo reale i dati provenienti dalle cargo bike, UNIMORE ha sviluppato il Digital Twin 3D USCV (Unreal Smart City Visualizer), una piattaforma basata su Unreal Engine 5 che permette di osservare il comportamento dei veicoli all'interno di un ambiente urbano virtuale. Inoltre, è stata realizzata una web-app che consente il controllo della formazione del platoon e il tracciamento delle consegne. I partner coinvolti nel caso d'uso italiano includono: SPINITALIA: responsabile della trasformazione delle cargo bike in veicoli automatizzabili. Comune di Modena: fornisce supporto logistico e infrastrutturale attraverso i server MASA (Modena Automotive Smart Area). URBICO: stakeholder logistico di Pesaro che ha avviato una campagna di raccolta dati sulle consegne dell'ultimo miglio a Modena, utilizzando cargo bike elettriche per ridurre le emissioni di CO₂. CSEM: sviluppa un sistema di visione e un dispositivo di comunicazione V2V per migliorare la sicurezza e l'efficienza del sistema di platooning. DIFLY: produttore di droni impegnato nella consegna di materiali critici tra hub ospedalieri. Durante l'evento, UNIMORE presenterà queste innovazioni, evidenziando il contributo del progetto TRACE alla mobilità urbana sostenibile e intelligente.
