Project Description
The Project ECHORD++, which follows the FP7 Project ECHORD, wants to promote innovation by facilitating the cooperation between public bodies, academia and industry of robot manufacturers. This goal will be achieved by implementing different instruments – experiments, pre-commercial procurement (PCP) and robotic and innovation facilities (RIFs) - that are tailor-made to meet the needs of the society and public bodies in different areas.
The PDTI instrument -Public end-users Driven Technological Innovation- is financing two RTD consortia (ARSI and SIAR) including academia and industrial staff, that have already developed the Phases I - Solution Design - and II - Prototyping - and are now developing the Phase III - Small scale tests series of this procedure of Innovative Public Procurement. At the end of 2018 the cities will have two new robotic pre commercial products for inspection and maintenance of the Sewer Netwok.
