LITecS proudly participated in the European Researchers\u2019 Night on September 26 and 27, 2024, at the University of Beira Interior in Covilh\u00e3, an event dedicated to bringing science closer to the public and inspiring young minds to pursue scientific careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the UBI Science Fair, we showcased an engaging mix of technologies and interactive demonstrations, highlighting the impact of robotics and environmental monitoring in various fields. Visitors had the chance to experience a popcorn-serving robotic arm, demonstrating how robotics can be both practical and entertaining; a soft-gripper prototype from the ROBOTA-SUDOE project, designed to handle delicate objects like fruits and vegetables with precision and adaptability; and a monitoring station and interactive panel from the Montanha Viva project, illustrating how technology supports biodiversity conservation and environmental monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This hands-on experience allowed participants to see how UBI\u2014and particularly LITecS\u2014is driving innovation at the intersection of science, technology, and agriculture. Engaging with the community and sharing our passion for research was a fantastic experience, reinforcing the idea that science can be both impactful and enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are grateful to everyone who visited us and explored our projects\u2014it was a pleasure to showcase the future of technology and sustainability!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
