ARISE is a project funded under the Horizon Europe framework and stands for agile, human-centric and real-time enabled open source technologies, advancing industrial human-robotic-interaction (HRI) in Europe.
Combining open technologies such as ROS2, FastDDs and FIWARE the consortium works on setting new standards, developing open-source real-time middleware, addressing challenges in industrial contexts.
This middleware acts as an intermediary layer facilitating efficient and agile communication between humans and robots, promoting collaboration in various work environments, such as manufacturing, logistics, and even healthcare.
The main goal is to strengthen European industry through the implementation of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). The advantages of ARISE are many-fold. It will facilitate the rapid and robust creation of robotic applications, promoting efficiency and agility in the industry., while following a ethical and safety-focused approach to ensure safe and respectful working environments.
The project deploys HRI in four Test and Experimentation Facilities (TEFs) across Europe and will further include HRI providers, SME, start-ups and end-user companies through a third-party experiment funding plan (FSTP).
