Periodic Reporting for period 1 - VORTEX (Autonomous Infrastructure Inspection via Vortex Robot Climbers)
Periodo di rendicontazione: 2021-06-01 al 2022-11-30
VORTEX will use as the base the identified aerospace maintenance market and the end-users/customers from within the aerospace industry, to expand on potential stakeholders and customers in wider inspection and maintenance areas. Through the implementation of a commercialization plan, analysis of potential markets, technology assessment and consolidation of intellectual property rights, the envisioned activities will lead to the development of the VORTEX business case.
The planned dissemination and exploitation activities will stimulate the formation of an open and proactive mindset towards exploiting innovative tools in infrastructure inspection and maintenance, which are beyond the technical capabilities of existing companies, for addressing the demands for higher human safety and reduced downtime costs.
The objectives of VORTEX have been carefully selected to focus on boosting the innovation potential of the robotic technology developed in CompInnova, which will assist in strengthening the dissemination and innovation capacity, while giving the ability to have resources specifically in accessing potential markets and realising a genuine innovation through proper commercialization planning and technology market entry for addressing a real need.
