AI.ROBOTECH
An Atelier04 European partnership
THE PROJECT
A European alliance. A new generation of robotics skills.
AI.ROBOTECH addresses the high cost of physical laboratories, outdated middleware, and gaps in safety and cybersecurity education. Over 36 months, seven partners will develop accessible learning environments, modular ROS2 training, and stackable micro-credentials for higher education and professional upskilling.

SIMULATION FIRST. SAFETY ALWAYS.
Four pillars. One connected learning experience.
These are planned project outcomes.
01
Simulation-first learning
Immersive XR and digital twin testbeds make risk-free failure testing possible.
02
ROS2 & AI integration
Modular learning connects sensors, navigation and modern industrial systems.
03
Safety-by-design
ISO 3691-4, IEC 62443 and EU Machinery Regulation principles from the start.
04
EQF micro-credentials
Stackable 5-ECTS certification supports cross-border recognition.
THE EXCLUSIVE INDUSTRIAL ANCHOR
Atelier04. Where academic ambition meets applied expertise.
As the consortium’s sole corporate partner, Atelier04 ESKE GesmbH brings immersive XR engineering, AI prototyping, and digital platform design to the project. Ö-Cert and wien-cert quality standards underpin its approach to inclusive adult education.
A3.2
Immersive XR scenarios
Realistic AMR testbeds, hazard testing, and virtual sandboxes.
A4.7
UI/UX refinement
Accessible learner interfaces shaped by pilot feedback.
A5.2
Digital web portal
An open-access hub with a three-year post-project hosting commitment.
TRANSNATIONAL PARTNERSHIP
Academic rigor meets industry agility.
Seven partners across six countries.
