It will establish a unified pan-European platform for research and development. For the first time, a large number of distinguished research labs across Europe are jointly researching AI-Based Robotics. As the lead beneficiary of the work package "Know", the Institute of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Bremen will provide, consolidate, combine, and advance the knowledge representation and reasoning (KR&R) capabilities of the euROBIN network. ^ ^  {{:team:logo_eurobin193x54px.png?nolink&200|}}  ^ **[[https://www.eurobin-project.eu//|euROBIN]]**: euROBIN is the Network of Excellence that brings together European expertise on Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

-^  {{:tmp:ai4hri_logo.png?nolink&200|}}  ^ **AI4HRI** (Artificial Intelligence for Human-Robot Interaction): Europe and Japan both face problems of shrinking and aging population, and using social robots is seen as a possible way of alleviating demographic issues. Robots need to be able to interact with people and this is studied in the field of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). But dealing with humans is difficult, and HRI is still not making enough use of AI technologies. The goal of the AI4HRI project is to both develop and integrate several AI methods which will allow social robots to appropriately deal with humans around them. This includes 3 abilities that are currently missing in HRI: knowledge management and reasoning, learning of social skills, and planning and executing joint human-robot actions. AI4HRI brings together three teams who have very complementary approaches to solving the issues addressed by the project. IAI has extensive expertise on knowledge management and reasoning, Kyoto University, Japan has large know-how in learning for social interactions, and LAAS-CNRS, France adds to that strong expertise in human-aware design and in joint action planning and execution. The project will benefit from their synergy. Importantly, the above abilities will be combined into a single open-source architecture and shared with other researchers. ^ +^  {{:tmp:ai4hri_logo.png?nolink&200|}}  ^**[[https://sites.laas.fr/projects/ai4hri/|AI4HRI]]** (Artificial Intelligence for Human-Robot Interaction): Europe and Japan both face problems of shrinking and aging population, and using social robots is seen as a possible way of alleviating demographic issues.

-^  {{:team:tracebot_logo_2021_rgb.png?nolink&200|}}  ^ **TraceBot** (Traceable Robotic Handling of Sterile Medical Products): The TraceBot project, supported by the European Union's H2020-EU.2.1.1 program, is an initiative aimed at enhancing robotic capabilities in healthcare and laboratory environments through technological innovation. The project's primary objective is to develop robotic systems capable of executing verifiable actions within a traceability framework, supported by knowledge-based digital-twin technology. This approach allows for tracking and validation of robotic actions, crucial in processes such as the production and sterility testing of medical products. By incorporating these advanced robotic solutions, TraceBot contributes to increasing precision, safety, and operational efficiency in medical and laboratory settings. ^+^  {{:team:tracebot_logo_2021_rgb.png?nolink&200|}}  ^**[[https://www.biolago.org/en/projects/details/tracebot.html|TraceBot]]** (Traceable Robotic Handling of Sterile Medical Products): The TraceBot project, supported by the European Union's H2020-EU.2.1.1 program, is an initiative aimed at enhancing robotic capabilities in healthcare and laboratory environments through technological innovation.
