ARISE 2nd Open Call: Human Robot Interaction (HRI) solution funded
The ARISE Middleware Open Call is a call for funded proposals aimed at promoting innovative solutions in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) for industrial, healthcare, and logistics applications. The goal is to support projects that develop or expand technologies that enable more efficient, safe, and productive collaboration between people and robots in real-world environments.
who can apply?
This second call for proposals is aimed at consortia formed by companies and entities that develop technology and apply it in a real-world environment. In other words, both those who create the solution and those who will use and validate it must participate.
Minimum structure of the consortium:
- Primary technology provider (mandatory):
SME, startup, or mid-cap company leading the development of the HRI solution. - Secondary technology provider (optional):
Entity with a complementary technical profile. - End user (mandatory):
- Organization that defines and tests the actual use case of the solution (may be the same leading SME if it acts as the end user in certain cases).
- If the main provider is not an SME or there is no second SME provider, the end user must be an SME.
What types of projects are you looking for?
The Open Call focuses on solutions applied to specific human-robot interaction challenges. Areas of interest include:
- Disassembly and assembly of high-value products.
- Complex pick & place in industrial warehouses.
- Flexible collaborative robots.
- Smart programming.
- Advanced HRI functionalities with multimodal interactions.
- Fetch & carry tasks in healthcare environments.
- HRI to improve efficiency in high-precision tasks.
- HRI to improve operator ergonomics.
Cascade Funding
Selected projects can receive up to €200,000 per proposal under a lump sum grant scheme covering 100% of eligible costs.
