Role of AWARD
The AWARD (All Weather Autonomous Real logistics operations and Demonstrations) project was recently invited to participate in the RESEARCH #INDUSTRIENAH conference, which focused on sustainable success in production and logistics. The conference was held on September 19, 2022, at the FH OÖ Campus Steyr @SKF in Austria and brought together experts from the logistics and production industries, as well as academia and research institutions.
During the conference, Matthias Neubauer on behalf of FH OO , a member of the AWARD project, presented on the topic of “Connected and Automated Vehicles on the Rise in Commercial Applications.” The presentation focused on the ways in which connected and automated vehicles can improve logistics operations, particularly in terms of safety, efficiency, and environmental sustainability. Neubauer discussed the AWARD project’s goals and objectives, which include developing and demonstrating innovative autonomous solutions for logistics operations in all weather conditions. The project aims to create a comprehensive range of technologies and tools to enable the safe and efficient transport of goods across different modes of transportation.
Highlights
The AWARD project is a consortium of partners from academia, industry, and research institutions, and it focuses on developing solutions that can operate in all weather conditions, including rain, fog, and snow. The project’s key achievements in developing an integrated sensor suite, data fusion, and localization algorithms were also presented.
The AWARD project’s participation in the RESEARCH #INDUSTRIENAH conference provided an opportunity to showcase its innovative solutions and engage with stakeholders and experts in the logistics and production industries. The conference also allowed the project to network with other researchers and industry experts, fostering potential collaborations and partnerships.
In addition to the AWARD project’s presentation, the conference featured presentations and discussions on topics such as sustainable logistics, circular economy, and Industry 4.0. The conference provided a valuable platform for industry experts, researchers, and stakeholders to exchange ideas and knowledge on the latest trends and innovations in production and logistics.
In conclusion, the AWARD project’s participation in the RESEARCH #INDUSTRIENAH conference was a success, as it allowed the project to showcase its innovative solutions and engage with stakeholders and experts in the logistics and production industries. The conference provided a valuable opportunity for the project to network, collaborate, and contribute to the growth and development of these industries.
