Creating a EuropeanEco-System in robotics
• Robotic key-technologies: perception, human-machine-interaction, mechatronics, safety, …
• Software: Major cost-/performance factor in service robotics, 30+% cost share
• Supply industry for robotics key-components, software (computer vision, motion control, mobile navigation etc.) emerges
• Open Source Software systems hugely popular; e.g. >2/3 of all service robot suppliers use Robot Operating System ROS (and other OSS)
• With €700M in funding from EU 2014 – 2020, SPARC is the largest civilian-funded robotics innovation initiative in the world.
