CITIZEN CONSULTATION FOR THE VALIDATION OF ROBOTICS BUSINESS IDEAS
11 ROBOTICS BUSINESS IDEAS. 1.045 ANSWERS. 35 COUNTRIES.
Robotics solutions and technologies are rapidly changing society and transforming the way we live and work – with both positive improvements and unforeseen consequences.
In Robotics4EU, we believe it's crucial for citizens to have a voice in the development and impact of new technologies that with time can affect their daily lives. That's why we've brought together a collection of robots that are currently in development or have recently hit the market, and created a survey-style consultation for people to provide their input.
Several people from different countries answered these surveys and got the chance to have a say on these robotics solutions. The feedback was shared directly with the companies behind the robots to use as inspiration in their future development. You can now find the main results of these surveys here.
The main results per each company are available below - SCROLL DOWN

Capra Robotics has created a mobile robot for collecting cigarette butts, since municipalities are looking for solutions that are neither too time-consuming, expensive nor environmentally damaging.
The main goal of this solution is to minimize the number of microplastics and toxins in urban areas.
This robot is equipped with a camera to find the cigarettes and a vacuum cleaner to remove them. The robot is controlled by an operator, who gives it commands from a provided app.

Construction Buddy by Robstruct
Construction Buddy can be connected to a trailer that can help move large and small objects on construction sites such as bricks, tools, waste etc. The solution is built on the idea that it is possible to create mobile robots that are intuitive to use and adaptable to their environment and the tasks they are set to perform.
By eliminating non-value-creating and time-consuming tasks via autonomous executing, RobStruct solutions enable construction staff to focus on actively building.
Their solution aims to increase productivity and improve the mental health of workers.

DARKO is a European research project that is developing new methods for robots to work more efficiently with humans, particularly in logistics and production.
An example for the use of the robot would be to have the robot collect parts from boxes on shelves in a warehouse and place them in a tray for delivery to a customer, like a coworker among human staff.

Drone-in-a-box by NAUST Robotics
NAUST Robotics is developing an autonomous drone equipped with speakers to protect agricultural fields from birds and wild animal attacks. The drone will fly over the fields playing deterring noises to move the animals back to natural areas and keep the crops safe.
The solution aims to increase the agricultural yield while avoiding the use of more harmful techniques for scaring the fauna and reducing the human time used to check the status of the fields. It decreases food loss while bringing increased revenue for the farmer, and it will result in a lower CO2 footprint.

EVE is a human sized robot platform that can be used in areas such as security, retail, logistics and healthcare, performing tasks that would usually be done by humans.
As EVE is not limited to a predefined space, but is able to move freely, it can assist healthcare professionals in everyday tasks, for example.
For Halodi Robotics, the goal is to improve patient care and outcomes with the help of a humanoid robotic assistant. The aim is to create a solution that reduces costs, improves service, and assists healthcare providers.

Lifeline swab robot will enable the world to be better prepared for the spread of future pathogens.
The purpose of the Lifeline swab robot is to conduct safe throat swabs with high-quality samples collected. The solution works by combining artificial intelligence, machine vision and sensitive robotics into a medical device. It’s a fully automatic solution, meaning that no human personnel is required when a sample is collected.
It frees personnel to do more valuable work while shielding them from the danger of infection. Ultimately, it will improve health while securing the economy and minimising the worry.

Tactile Gripper by Graspian
Nowadays, robots are using cameras to navigate their surroundings, and locate and identify objects while avoiding bumping into walls and other obstacles. Therefore, cameras are a great help to robots. However, they sometimes struggle because of poor lighting conditions or because the camera view is blocked.
Graspian is adding a sense of touch to robots. By combining input from a camera and touch sensors, it gives the robot much-improved capability for navigating its surroundings using both visual and tactile sensing, and enables the robot to avoid dropping, damaging, or bruising objects.

"The Pollinator" by STING Project
“The Robot who wants to be a pollinator” is part of the European Initiative on Pollinators, within the STING project (Science and Technology for Pollinating Insects) by the European Commission.
This prototype robot aims to monitor biodiversity by observing insects and flowers in the field via cameras and sensors. Currently, the robot gets assigned a farmer as its host. The farmer then places the robot in the field where they want biodiversity *to be monitored. In the future, the robot is supposed to navigate by itself in the field.

The Rovid UVC Robot is a modular mobile robot with multiple storage spaces and a robotic arm for small objects manipulation.
The mobile robot will be implemented in a hospital environment to perform several tasks and on-demand deliveries. It has multiple features related to interaction tools, communication of intention, aesthetics, and feedback to be integrated in a natural way in people's daily routines.
This robot will perform physically demanding and repetitive tasks for humans, and thereby it will free them to perform other tasks. Additionally, it will optimise processes, collaborate with the staff when needed and interact socially.
