The advance of Industry 4.0 technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), Collaborative Robotics, Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR and VR) has brought about a number of interesting opportunities for industry. That said it has also highlighted a digital skills gap in Higher Education. The aim of the ICARUS project was to develop free resources in terms of a digital training toolbox which can be utilised to target and bridge this skills gap.
This Seminar will present the results of the ICARUS project, as well as highlight some excellent examples of Industry 4.0 technologies being developed and implemented in Malta. It will also provide an interesting opportunity for local stakeholders to discuss and address challenges which they may be facing.
