HARTU’s results: technologies, tools and demonstrators

The HARTU project has developed a set of concrete, innovative results aimed at enabling safe, flexible and human-centric AI-Robotics solutions for modern manufacturing.

From advanced robotic vision and manipulation technologies to human-centred design approaches and pilot demonstrators in real industrial environments, HARTU’s outcomes bridge research and real-world application.

On this page, you can explore HARTU’s Key Results, discover the technologies behind them, and see how they have been implemented and validated across different industrial use cases.

Grasp Planner and Execution Pipeline

An intelligent software module that automates the identification and execution of optimal grasp points using CAD models or geometric primitives for unknown objects lines.

HARTU Application Management Platform

An open, modular platform enabling
non-experts to design and control
flexible robotic workflows.

AI-Based Perception System

A robust AI-powered vision framework that ensures precise object segmentation and 6D pose estimation to enable autonomous robotic manipulation in variable and cluttered environments.

Innovative Gripping Technologies

Adaptive and smart grippers combining real-time tactile sensing and shape-adaptive actuation to enable precise, safe, and energy-efficient manipulation across diverse industrial environments.

Learning-from-Demonstration Framework for Contact-Rich Assembly

A framework that enables the user to quickly adapt a robotic system through kinesthetic teaching and hand gestures to assembly tasks needed for new product variants.

Human-Centric Design Approach

A framework that supports the design and adoption of AI and robotic solutions in manufacturing, enabling safe and ethical human–robot collaboration through skills mapping, role definition, and training guidance.
