The working table aimed to benchmark participating companies technology portfolio and innovation management practices in the field of Robotics and Industry 4.0. The three main participants (DATALOGIC, PILZ and GAIOTTO) approach the robotics field in a complementary way, whereby PILZ is specialised in engineering services, DATALOGIC in sensors and optics development, and GAIOTTO in robot integration and manufacturing for specific purposes and fields (ceramics, finishing, etc.). UNIMORE facilitated the discussion providing insight on the latest research trends in artificial intelligence.
