Consultation process (2)
European Technology Platforms (ETPs) Sustained
and close interaction over the past two years G.2
has significant involvement with the following
platforms Manufuture, Construction, Sustainable
Chemistry, Textiles, Forest Based Industries,
Sustainable Mineral Resources and Industrial
Safety and is consulting also with the Photonics,
Robotics and Steel platforms Manufuture Has
provided key concepts for the structure of  New
Production  Incorporates a number of
sub-platforms rapid technologies, agricultural
technologies, micro- and nanomanufacturing Provide
s a link to cross-platform activities (e.g. road
and marine transport) and to national Manufuture
Platforms (19 in operation/being started)

NMP Implementation approach

• Overall objective
• improve the competitiveness of EU industry
  (including SMEs) and ensure its transformation
  through
• transition to knowledge-based industry
• generation, applicable, knowledge of radical
  potential
• strengthening EU leadership in nano, materials
  and production technologies
• validated integration of different technologies
  and disciplines that demonstrates industrial
  change.
• Importance of Technology Platforms to help
  establish common research priorities and targets.

12
1. Nanosciences Nanotechnologies

• Objective
• Increase and support the take-up of knowledge
  generated in this revolutionary field for all
  industrial sectors

13
2. Materials
Objective Generate new knowledge to enable
new industrial products and processes to be
achieved, exploiting the potential of
interdisciplinary approaches in materials
research.
14
3. New Production
Objective Create continuously innovating
production capabilities to achieve leadership in
industrial products processes in the global
marketplace
15
Strategy of New Production
Knowledge Based Factories... Made in Europe
continuously innovating production
capabilities for achieving leadership in
industrial products processes in the global
market place...
16
Holistic approach to Knowledge Based Factories
17
Integration of technologies for industrial
applications
Some identified Y1 topics .established as a
priority through a thorough consultation with Dir
G, ensuring the contribution towards overall
objectives of the theme .and taking into account
the needs of SMEs in particular Advanced
Wood-Based Composites and their Production
(Forestry ETP) Resource Efficient and Clean
Buildings (Construction ETP) Innovative
added-value construction services (Construction
ETP ) (SME topic) Application of New Materials
Including Bio-Based Fibres in High-Added Value
Textiles Products (Textiles ETP) (SME topic)

Challenge 2 A world leadership in ROBOTICS
Today
5 15 years

• Robots operating in  structured ,
   constrained  environnments
• Industrial robots
•  Programmed  service robots
• Basic, but not full, understanding of
  computational representations of human cognitive
  processes
• First applications in cognitive vision
• Human-machine interactions that are rather static
  or passive
• unable to adapt to human behaviours and unable to
  empower humans in their interactions

• Robots exhibiting advanced behaviour
• Adapting to context learning from observation
• Machines and systems that understand their users
  and/or their environment
• Systems that analyse and understand multimedia
  and multimodal digital information
• operating in dynamic and open-ended environments

• Call 1 / Call 3
