Fluently leverages the latest advancements in AI-driven decision-making process to achieve true social collaboration between humans and machines while matching extremely dynamic manufacturing contexts. The project results will be: 1) Fluently Smart Interface unit and 2) the Robo-Gym. The Fluently Smart Interface unit features: 1) interpretation of speech content, speech tone and gestures, automatically translated into robot instructions, making industrial robots accessible to any skill profile; 2) assessment of the operator’s state through a dedicated sensors’ infrastructure that complements a persistent context awareness to enrich an AI-based behavioural framework in charge of triggering the generation of specific robot strategies; 3) modelling products and production changes in a way they could be recognized, interpreted and matched by robots in cooperation with humans. Robots equipped with Fluently will constantly embrace humans’ physical and cognitive loads, but will also learn and build experience with their human teammates to establish a manufacturing practise relying upon quality and well-being. The bond between human and robot is personalized, and it is established during a preliminary training at the Robo-Gym, the first European hub for human-robot interactive training, where human and robot learn from each other a common work practice. Fluently will be validated by demonstration on three full scale pilots characterized by various level of automation, production dynamism and complexity of the manufacturing decision making process. The total project value required to commercialize the Fluently device and Robo-Gym concept is 18.8 M EUR. Forecast for EBITDA in 2028 is 16.3 M EUR, payback in 2028, with 13% gross profit and ROI 91% in line with sectorial performances. The new turnover generated requires at least 325 workers employed along the Fluently supply chain. Fluently will bring together 21 key industrial and academic stakeholders from 13 countries.

流畅地利用人工智能驱动的决策过程的最新进展，实现人与机器之间的真正社交协作，同时匹配极其动态的制造环境。该项目的成果将是：1）流畅的智能界面单元和2）机器人健身房。Fluently Smart Interface单元的特点是：1）解释语音内容、语音语调和手势，自动翻译成机器人指令，使工业机器人能够访问任何技能配置文件; 2）通过专用传感器基础设施评估操作员的状态，补充持久的上下文感知，丰富基于AI的行为框架，负责触发特定机器人策略的生成; 3）对产品和生产变化进行建模，使机器人能够与人类合作识别、解释和匹配。配备Fluently的机器人将不断接受人类的身体和认知负荷，但也将与人类队友一起学习和积累经验，以建立依赖于质量和福祉的制造实践。人与机器人之间的联系是个性化的，它是在Robo-Gym的初步培训中建立的，Robo-Gym是欧洲第一个人机互动培训中心，在那里，人和机器人相互学习共同的工作实践。流利将通过三个全尺寸试点的演示进行验证，这些试点的特点是不同的自动化水平，生产动态和制造决策过程的复杂性。Fluently设备和Robo-Gym概念商业化所需的总项目价值为1880万欧元。预计2028年的EBITDA为1630万欧元，2028年收回投资，毛利润为13%，ROI为91%，与行业表现一致。产生的新营业额需要至少325名工人沿着Fluently供应链工作。Fluently将汇集来自13个国家的21个主要工业和学术利益相关者。
