VRSciT - VR Science Tour
| Project name: | VRSciT - VR Science Tour |
| Description: | The VRSciT project consists of conducting a virtual educational visit to locations of cultural, social and natural interest of each partner involved, from Portugal, Spain, Italy, and Lithuania, by using Virtual Reality (VR) immersion and interaction techniques to provide users a unique learning experience. VR technology adoption removes the barriers of remote visualization of environments making possible for everyone to experience a high educational value through digitalization. The VRSciT project specifically aims to explore new approaches in educational tourism, such as 3D modeling together with 360º immersive VR environments to build innovative virtual educational scenes, from four different countries.. |

Cybersecurity in Robotics
| Project name: | Detección y caracterización automática de problemas de ciberseguridad en plataformas robóticas |
| Description: | The main goal of this project is to develop automated and adaptable systems for detecting cyber attacks to robotic systems.
Advanced methodologies and tools will be developed for modeling, simulating and analyzing the cybersecurity of autonomous platforms. This would let us replicate robot attack scenarios and will be used to validate countermeasures systems, providing a general frame and a operational methods guide that could be used as formal recommendations to guarantee citizens’ cybersecurity in public spaces. |
