The AI-MATTERS project is building a network of physical and digital facilities across Europe where innovators can validate their solutions under real-life conditions. AI-MATTERS contributes to increasing the resilience and the flexibility of the European manufacturing sector through the deployment of the latest developments in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and smart and autonomous systems. The project provides an extensive catalogue of services to innovators in the following key topics: factory-level optimisation, human-robot interaction, circular economy and adoption of emerging AI enabling technologies.
AI-MATTERS is a flagship initiative under the Digital Europe Programme for the setting up of a unique and worldclass AI Testing and Experimentation Facility (TEF) for manufacturing industry to make the EU the place where AI excellence thrives from the lab to the market. The TEF offers a combination of physical and virtual facilities, in which technology providers can get support to test their latest AI-based soft-/hardware technologies in real-world environments.
