MAGICIAN

Consumers increasingly expect manufacturing products to be free of defects which sets high standards in the production process. However, associated working processes are physically and cognitively demanding for workers and executed in a potentially hazardous environment. MAGICIAN addresses these challenges by developing robotic solutions for the autonomous classification and repair of aesthetic defects in semi-finished manufacturing products. The robots will operate by ‘learning’ from human workers and contribute to a safer and healthier working environment by taking over physically demanding tasks. The solutions will be tested in an automotive use case and then extended to additional application fields via Open Calls for SMEs and startups to prove their transferability.
