ESMERA participates with presentation and Q&A session at robot fair R-18

Members of the consortium will use the stage at Odense Congress Center to talk about ESMERA´s goals, funding opportunities, the challenge areas, application possibilities and the selection process. Subsequent to the presentation on stage, the ESMERA booth (number2644) offers a Q&A-session for interested SMEs.

The EU funded project ESMERA (European SMEs Robotics Applications) presents itself on the EXPO Stage at robot fair R-18 in Odense, Denmark. On Wednesday, September 12th between 12 -12:30 p.m., members of the consortium will use the stage at Odense Congress Center to talk about ESMERA's goals, funding opportunities, the challenge areas, application possibilities and the selection process. Subsequent to the presentation on stage, the ESMERA booth (number2644) offers a Q&A-session for interested SMEs.


In January 2018, the European Commission launched the ESMERA project to unlock the innovation potential of SMEs in robotics. ESMERA promotes applied robotics technology developed for industrial challenges set by key European companies. Thereby the SMEs get a chance to implement, apply and prove new technologies that address real-life problems and thus already have a market.

Within ESMERA's first open call, started in August 2018, European SMEs have a chance to apply for delivering a robotic solution to a pre-defined challenge and thus, gain funding from the European Commission. Applications are possible until October 31st, 2018 via http://opencalls.esmera-project.eu. The testing and evaluation for each phase will last nine months. In addition a second open call with new challenges from Energy, Manufacturing, Construction and Agri-Food will open in Fall 2019.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
