INESC TEC demonstrates Logistic Planner solution in London

INESC TEC demonstrates Logistic Planner solution in London

Rui Dias, researcher at INESC TEC’s Centre for Enterprise Systems Engineering (CESE), has demonstrated the Logistic Planner solution at ICAPS 2016 - The 26th International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling, which took place in London, UK, between 12 and 17 July.

The solution was developed as part of project STAMINA - Sustainable and Reliable Robotics for Part Handling in Manufacturing Automation, an automation project for assembly in the automotive industry. This solution is used to create a model of the space where robot STAMINA moves, using semantic and geometric information. Other than the demonstration, Rui Dias also did a presentation titled “Planning for Sustainable and Reliable Robotic Part Handling in Manufacturing Automation”.

It is important to stress that the goal with project STAMINA is to create a fleet of mobile manipulator robots with different sensors capable of performing essential tasks such as assembling kits or bin-picking.

Besides INESC TEC (represented by CRIIS and CESE), STAMINA’s consortium includes Aalborg University (Denmark), Peugeot Citroën Automobiles S.A. (France), BA Systèmes SAS (France), Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn (Germany) and the University of Edinburgh (United Kingdom). Funded by the EU 7th Framework Programme, the project will be concluded in March 2017.
