Our partner @CORE_Innov_Cen / @CORE_inno participated as an exhibitor at the Automation & Robotics Expo 2026 in Athens. At the heart of the showcase were MASTERMINE and COREbeat - a predictive maintenance platform powered by @IoT, #EdgeComputing, and #AI. Visitors experienced a live demonstration featuring a motor connected to beatBox, COREbeatโ€™s hardware component. By intentionally introducing a fault into the system, attendees could observe how COREbeatโ€™s user interface detected anomalies in near real time, demonstrating the platformโ€™s practical value in industrial environments. Already deployed in heavy-duty industries across Europe and beyond, COREbeat is also enabling smarter and more autonomous mining operations within the MASTERMINE project in Greece, Spain, Finland, and South Africa. ๐Ÿ“– For more information, read the blog post here: core-innovation.com/news/autโ€ฆ #Automation #Robotics #PredictiveMaintenance #Mining #Industry40 #HorizonEurope

๐Ÿšย Within the MASTERMINE project, partner Democritus University of Thrace has developed an drone system capable of achieving sub-3 m positional accuracy while detecting and mapping key objects along its trajectory. ๐Ÿ“ The system enables reliable #spatial awareness by capturing critical information throughout the droneโ€™s trajectory- supporting smarter monitoring and decision-making in complex environments. ๐Ÿ”ฌ Current developments focus on multi-observation tracking, which will enable smoother, more stable, and data-rich visualizations. This enhancement represents another step forward in precision #robotics and situational awareness for next-generation mining operations. #MineralProcessing #Drones #HorizonEurope
