Portuguese researchers develop robot capable of collecting materials in automotive industry (TVI 24)
The goal is to develop smart robots (with advanced sensing, planning, part handling, autonomous navigation and integration in the factory’s execution system) to conduct picking operations in the assembly line.
Porto develops robot to collect materials in the automotive industry (Notícias ao Minuto)
Researchers from the Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering, Technology and Science (INESC TEC), Porto, are participating in a European project to create the first mobile robot manipulator, which collects components in the automotive industry.
60 million euros to create technology for the sea (Observador)
INESC TEC wants to create a cluster of technological competences for the sea in Portugal. The Institute is involved in 18 projects to develop the sector, which represent 60 million euros.
Portuguese researchers create prototype for monitoring oceans (Diário de Aveiro)
Portuguese researchers are developing an autonomous system to monitor different ocean parameters and to detect changes in biodiversity, the impact on climate and environmental anomalies, which will make it possible to manage these resources more sustainably.

MarinEyE will monitor the oceans to save resources (Porto 24)
The MarinEye, a multitrophic prototype for ocean monitoring, is being developed by the Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research (CIIMAR), in partnership with three other institutions – INESC TEC, the Portuguese Sea and Atmosphere Institute (IPMA), and the Marine and Environmental Sciences Centre (MARE – IP Leiria).
Monitoring oceans (Jornal Economia do Mar)
Researchers create prototype that monitors the oceans in an integrated way, and guarantees a sustainable management of marine resources, and makes it possible to reduce the impact of environmental risks.
INESC TEC develops first deep sea robotic platform made in Portugal
INESC TEC has developed the first underwater robotic platform for the deep sea which has been completely developed in Portugal, in partnership with Portuguese companies. Project TURTLE - Technologies for long-term presence in the deep sea kicked off in 2014.
#eurathlon2015 tests robotic air/land/sea systems in realistic emergency response scenarios
On March 11, 2011, a tsunami and earthquake struck Fukushima Dai-ichi energy plant causing a major disaster. Since then emergency services have deployed robots to inspect the area and collect data. Some robot surveys were successful while others failed, underlining the pressing need to advance the state-of-the-art in autonomous robots for disaster response.
Will Robots Aid Maritime Search and Rescue? (Marine Technology News)
New ICARUS system ready for use from 2016
“20 years ago, people thought we were lunatics”
The second edition of the “Soltar Amarras” conference cycle, promoted in partnership by the Casino Figueira, PwC and the Port Authority of (APFF), took place this Thursday at Casino Figueira.
At the forefront of aquatic robotics
Portugal is one of the world powers in aquatic robotics, according to Matos, researcher in underwater robotics at the Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering of Porto and professor at the University of Porto.
Portuguese researchers develop maritime search and rescue technology
According to the news website Ciência 2.0, a team from the Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering – Technology and Science (INESC TEC) is leading the development of maritime search and rescue technology. This technology is being developed as part of project ICARUS – Integrated Components for Assisted Rescue and Unmanned Search operations, and will be demonstrated in Portugal in the summer of next year.
Portuguese researchers develop maritime search and rescue technology
A team from the Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering of Porto – Science and Technology (INESC TEC) is leading the development of technologies to support search and rescue operations at sea in the context of the European project ICARUS – Integrated Components for Assisted Rescue and Unmanned Search operations. The maritime component will be demonstrated in Portugal in the summer of 2015.
Dual use research has military and civilian benefits
Following the conclusions of the European council in December 2013, which underlined the importance of stimulating dual use research and support to SMEs, the European defence agency (EDA) has been busy working with various civilian and military stakeholders to access European structural funds (ESF) for research projects.
EU wants to use drones to monitor maritime borders
Project SUNNY gathers 18 companies and research labs from different member states. For 42 months, the partners will be testing networks and sensors that will be used by unmanned aerial vehicles to monitor maritime borders.
A chair that thinks
Researchers from the University of Porto have developed a wheelchair that adapts to each user. It can be controlled by a joystick, by voice controls or with the blink on an eye.
Intelligent wheelchair with controls tailored to each user
This project, coordinated by INESC TEC (Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering of Porto), resulted in an intelligent wheelchair that is a solution to individuals who are severely handicapped, as it makes it possible to “personalise” the operation controls.
Portuguese Project Aims To Deliver Underwater Energy Efficient Demonstrator in 2015
A Portuguese civil-military research project supported by the European Defence Agency (EDA) is testing reduced-energy technologies for underwater robotics, said an EDA official.
Project by ISEP and INESC TEC receives European support
The European Defence Agency (EDA) is now supporting Turtle, a project developed by ISEP and INESC TEC. 60% of the funding comes from European structural funds.
