📢 🚀 We are proud to announce K3Y Ltd's participation in the successful TORNADO #project kick-off meeting, held in #Athens 🇬🇷 on January 29-30, 2025. The 2️⃣-day #event was organized by project coordinator ITML. 💼 👥 The meeting marked a significant milestone and an exciting start to our journey toward next-generation adaptive robotics. 🤖☁️🏭🏥📦 TORNADO aims to develop an adaptive cloud robotics platform for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) in complex indoor environments. It will enable precise manipulation of soft and deformable objects (SSDs) and seamless human-robot interaction through gestures and speech. Using deep neural Foundation Models (FMs)🧠, it will handle non-repetitive tasks, adapting dynamically to object variations. Human trust measurement will ensure smooth societal integration. The system will be validated in three industrial use cases: Gears Factory, Hospital Environment, and Plant Distribution Centre. 👨💼 During the meeting, our Head of R&D, Panagiotis Radoglou Grammatikis, PhD, introduced WP7 which focuses on Dissemination and Community Liaising, outlining the plans and next steps for its implementation. Beyond leading WP7, K3Y will play a pivotal role in the TORNADO exploitation plan and related strategies (T7.3), as well as in the integration of cloud and beyond-5G infrastructure (T6.3). Additionally, K3Y will contribute to the development of beyond-5G communications and the robot-to-cloud continuum (T3.5), as well as the XAI-equipped AR-based human-robot interface (T5.4), with a particular focus on adversarial XAI resilience testing and the adaptation of existing XAI frameworks. 🧑💻 We're excited to begin this journey! Keep an eye out for more thrilling updates from the #project! 🔎 https://lnkd.in/dKjNycYC #TORNADO #TORNADOProject #HorizonEurope #EUproject #Robotics #AI #Artificialintelligence #Research #Innovation #Automation #SmartManufacturing #Computervision #SocialRobotics #RoboticHardware #AutonomousRobotics #CloudRobotics #MachineLearning #CloudCommunication #AutonomousMobileRobot #AMR #HumanRobotInteraction #Industry40 #HealthcareRobotics #LogisticsAutomation #RobotNavigation #HumanCentricAI #Beyond5G #RobotToCloudContinuum #XAI #ExplainableAI #K3Y
