On July 3, 2019, the consortium of the openSIROCO project, “Open Innovation Platform for Collaborative Robotic Systems of Production 4.0,” met in Seville with a CDTI technician to pass the technical audit for the project's first milestone. During the meeting, representatives from TTI Norte, AEORUM, Pago del Vicario, and ISFOC explained to the technician both the technical advancements and the expenses associated with the project.

The openSIROCO project involves seeking robotic solutions and configurations to improve Industry 4.0. These solutions will be adapted to open and heterogeneous sectors such as energy, agriculture, livestock, construction, mining, logistics, and transportation. Additionally, specific issues in vineyard cultivation and photovoltaic installations will be analyzed to create an experimental development of a management system for collaborative robotic missions applicable to the photovoltaic and viticulture sectors. Ultimately, the goal is to bring robotic technology and Industry 4.0 to traditional industries to modernize work methodologies that facilitate or even automate decision-making processes, such as in vineyard cultivation and the operation and maintenance of photovoltaic plants. Similarly, the aim is to generalize and standardize operations to address new problems through open innovation and collective intelligence.

The openSIROCO project is funded by grants aimed at promoting regional cooperation in research and development (FEDER INTERCONECTA Programme) within the framework of the 2017-2020 State Plan for Scientific and Technical Research and Innovation. File: EXP-00111433 / ITC-20181090.
