Bide Onena - Artificial intelligence techniques to reduce energy consumption in mobile robotics
Specific Programme: Euroregional Innovation
Grant Agreement: 2023-64
Project Objective:
The general objective of the project is research into technologies based on artificial intelligence and conceptual development to reduce energy consumption and autonomous mobile robotics to increase precision.
To achieve this general objective, the following specific objectives are defined:
- Optimization of general parameters of Plant Efficiency, reduction of energy consumption and increase of the operating margin and dynamics of the systems, and increase of quality and repeatability.
- Reduce energy consumption by 5%, both of the signal obtained from the digital twin and the robot, without reducing the precision between the mobile
- Perform energy control to optimize operation when necessary. Design a solution and adjust the amount of energy according to needs and conditions.

Project summary: Mobile robots are widely used in logistics in sectors such as automotive, food and health. the design of a robot. It can be the main criterion for making an investment. In fact, the energy consumption of robots (industrial and mobile) in production processes is around 8% of total electrical energy consumption. Therefore, reducing energy consumption in mobile robotics is essential to improve the efficiency of manufacturing systems.
