Deliverables
This deliverable will show the assessment of the multi-level system before using it in the demonstration prototypes.First trials for human-robot interaction will be performed to verify the hardware and software dependability in order to ensure an adequate deployment in the demonstration scenarios. This validation phase will be done using representative laboratory setups for the proposed demonstration scenarios and the verification process will contain multiple scenario runs.
The activities included in the Dissemination and Communication Plan will define the goals, the targeted audience and the desired activities. A dissemination and communication toolkit will include the website, flyers, videos, interviews, project leaflet (providing key information about the project in a concise and engaging message). While the Dissemination is focussed on the disclosure of project results to specific target groups, Communication is aimed to promote the project and its impacts to defined audiences. MERGING will deploy a 360 degrees Dissemination and Communication Strategy, combining online and offline channels, content marketing strategies & tools, media relations, top events and work with stakeholders.The plan will be assessed and updated two times during the project, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the actions.This deliverable is the final version of the D and C Plan.
MERGING WorkshopA final seminar, “MERGING Workshop”, will be organized (and webcast) by the end of the project aiming to: gather all stakeholders from several sectors (industry, education, standardization bodies, etc.), present the main results and expected gains of its deployment for the targeted markets and to provide a faster acceptance and integration of the project results in industrial value chain.Specifications of broader use of applications will be provided in order to verify if results could be relevant to a larger field of textiles and films applications or to other domains (new market potential), a pathway will be defined for the commercialization of the low-cost solution.
Dissemination and Communication Plan (revised)The activities included in the Dissemination and Communication Plan will define the goals the targeted audience and the desired activities A dissemination and communication toolkit will include the website flyers videos interviews project leaflet providing key information about the project in a concise and engaging message While the Dissemination is focussed on the disclosure of project results to specific target groups Communication is aimed to promote the project and its impacts to defined audiences MERGING will deploy a 360 degrees Dissemination and Communication Strategy combining online and offline channels content marketing strategies tools media relations top events and work with stakeholdersThe plan will be assessed and updated two times during the project in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the actionsThis deliverable is the updated version of the D and C Plan
Gripper and skin demonstrator"This deliverable will be constituted by the enhanced gripper prototypes made of the new low-cost gripper designs integrated with the new electro-adhesive skins.It will illustrate the integration of the separate developments described in deliverable ""Report on gripping technologies"". Considering necessary adjustments (mechanical, electronic, sensing and control integration, considering also the skin behavior impact onthe other characteristics of the hardware design), the final enhanced prototype grippers will be manufactured. This deliverable will be used in the following work packages (WP7 and WP8)."
Robot control functionalities demonstrationThis deliverable will show the functionalities of the robot arm control technologies described in deliverable 'Report on robot arm control technologies', through experimental demonstration of elementary use from user's side :- a set of assistance tools/schemes, among which the control algorithm will be able to propose automatically to the operator the best fitted one during the execution of each step inside the global task.- an on-line robot control law for the control of robot arm under human-machine interaction, servoing the shape of the flexible part that will be modified by the co-manipulation operation.- a 'supervised learning algorithm' allowing the robot to adapt in real time to the environment and flexible object during execution phases in the production line.
Dissemination and Communication Plan (initial)The activities included in the Dissemination and Communication Plan will define the goals, the targeted audience and the desired activities. A dissemination and communication toolkit will include the website, flyers, videos, interviews, project leaflet (providing key information about the project in a concise and engaging message). While the Dissemination is focussed on the disclosure of project results to specific target groups, Communication is aimed to promote the project and its impacts to defined audiences. MERGING will deploy a 360 degrees Dissemination and Communication Strategy, combining online and offline channels, content marketing strategies & tools, media relations, top events and work with stakeholders. The plan will be assessed and updated two times during the project, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the actions. This deliverable is the initial version of the D and C Plan.
The website will be designed in accordance with the visual project identity. All the public project materials documents, data, reports as well as dissemination and communication materials (print and digital) will be accessible from the website. The website will be regularly updated (every 2 months) and maintained throughout the project.
On-line training materialA version of the training material (detailed in the Training Plan) -excluding confidential information-, will be made available on-line to ensure training opportunities are widely available for EU workforce.
