Green@Hospital project starts officially

ICT solutions for energy efficiency in Hospitals.

The Green@Hospital project (Contract number ICT PSP 297290) started officially on March 1st  2012.

The project, partially funded by the European Commission under the ICT Policy Support Program aims at developing a Web-based Energy Management and Control System that will be used to integrate the most modern ICT technologies to achieve the challenging objective of 20% energy consumption reduction in Hospitals.

Loccioni Group (AEA Srl) coordinates a team of 10 partners who is going to work on this project for the next three years.

Loccioni. I segni di una nuova immagine

New Loccioni website

Welcome to the new Loccioni website, the landing place of a journey through the signs of culture, knowledge and technology.

Our journey starts with a new way of telling the story of what we have been yesterday, are today and imagine to be tomorrow.
It is a tale about knowledge, measure, technology, human being and nature.

NIDays 2012

NIDays

After the American and German events organized by National Instuments in the last months, Mo.Di.Bot, the mobile robot for industrial quality control and diagnosis, has been invited the NI Italian stage, too, held in Rome in February, 29th.

The event claim was “Which future will you invent?” and an entire session was dedicated to robotics.
Mo.Di.Bot presentation aroused the interest of the public, repeating the success received in the previous events.

Watch Mo.Di.Bot video

Mo.Di.Bot is an innovation in the field of industrial quality control, conceiving diagnosis and testing stations as flexible systems based on mobile robots equipped with mechatronic modules and diagnostic sensors.
The robot exchanges data useful for controlling process and products, achieving the full integration of measurement processes with the rest of the production system.
Mo.Di.Bot is able to move even in low structured environment and to reconfigure the measuring task depending on the type of product and its position. Thanks to those capabilities Mo.Di.Bot is an efficient measurement system for life test laboratories, able to replicate the same measuring instruments on the various stations operating in parallel.

CogSys 2012

Cogsys

CogSys 2012 is the 5th International Conference on Cognitive Systems held in Vienna on February 22nd-23rd.

The Conference brings together researchers in cognitive systems and robotics from academia, government and industry, aiming to present the state-of-the-art in cognitive systems and robotics, to spotlight European research activities and to generate a lively discussion and interaction across the participants.

During the poster session, Loccioni Research for Innovation team presented the results achieved during the InterAID experiment, which aims to develop a mobile manipulator for diagnosis and testing in the production line and reliability laboratories (life test labs) of household appliances.

The main results presented demonstrate the robot is able to:
| safely move in the environment, detecting obstacles, avoiding collisions
| recognize the product to test in the environment detecting relevant features for the inspection
| interact with products performing operations like pushing buttons, turning knobs and opening doors
| correctly place measurement sensors on the product to acquire data from it
| analyze the acquired data and autonomously perform further tests if needed
