Smart Applications
Intelligent Applications have become essential for optimizing processes and enabling informed decision-making. Their integration with Robotics, Multimedia, and the Internet of Things (IoT) drives significant innovation across multiple domains.
In Robotics, intelligent applications enhance machine autonomy and interaction, enabling solutions that range from personal assistant robots to advanced surgical systems. A special focus is placed on educational robotics, which combines state-of-the-art technology with playful, interactive approaches to develop intelligent embedded systems and perception algorithms. These solutions are often tested in technology competitions to refine their performance before being applied in educational contexts.
Multimedia has transformed the way information is consumed by integrating video, audio, images, and text with intelligent algorithms. This enables personalized user experiences, speech and image recognition, and immersive virtual reality environments, resulting in more intuitive and multisensory interactions.
In IoT, Artificial Intelligence allows everyday objects to collect and analyze data to create more efficient and secure environments. The convergence of IoT and AI gives rise to AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things), which incorporates advanced learning and decision-making capabilities into connected devices.
This research project explores how these technologies can transform teaching and learning, synchronize multisensory effects, and support environmental monitoring, enabling the development of more autonomous and efficient systems.
