Safebot: Intelligent AI-based system for continuous risk assessment of mobile robot operations

The Safebot project received European funding to develop an intelligent system for continuous risk assessment of mobile robot operations using artificial intelligence.

The project received funding from the European Funds under the European Funds for Lodzkie 2021-2027 program, financed by the European Regional Development Fund. Priority: FELD.01 European Funds for an innovative Lodzkie, Measure: FELD.01.02 Enterprise investments in research and innovation, Regional Program: European Funds for Lodzkie 2021-2027. Grant agreement no. FELD.01.02-IP.02-0006/25-00.

Project goal

The goal of the project is to develop a modern system supporting the safe operation of mobile robots and to strengthen the company’s research and innovation capabilities through an R&D project in the areas of AI and Industry 4.0.

The subject of the project is the development of Safebot - an intelligent solution for continuous risk assessment of mobile robot operations in the working environment using artificial intelligence mechanisms. The system will support mobile robot risk assessment by analyzing environmental data and robot operating parameters, then predicting hazardous situations and generating recommendations for technical and organizational safety measures.

Tasks carried out within the project

The following activities will be carried out as part of the project:

development of software for the monitoring and integration component together with a sensor set,
creation of the technical design for the hardware monitoring component together with control software for the mobile robot environment,
development of Safebot GUI software,
development of cloud software for risk analysis calculation, prediction and recommendation generation based on artificial intelligence.

Target groups

The project is addressed to companies from the manufacturing and logistics sectors that are implementing or planning to implement mobile robots in their working environments. Employees of these companies will also benefit from the project by gaining a higher level of safety in environments where mobile robots cooperate with people.

Effects and outcomes

The outcome of the project will be the creation of a system enabling real-time monitoring and management of risks related to mobile robot operations. The solution will allow faster response to changing working conditions, reduce the risk of incidents and improve the safety of both personnel and infrastructure.

What this news item means for a live AGV project

A news item is most useful when it helps you understand whether the topic changes timing, technology risk or rollout assumptions for your own automation plan. Not every trend matters equally for every plant.

Use the article to decide whether the subject is strategic, operational or only informative. That makes it easier to separate industry signal from items that do not influence your next project step.

Impact on timing

Check whether the topic affects when you should start a pilot, prepare infrastructure or revise the rollout sequence.

Impact on scope

Compare the message with your carrier type, transport density and system-integration scope before treating it as a direct recommendation.

Impact on decision

After reading, decide whether this is a topic for management, operations or the technical workshop so it feeds the right conversation.

Project takeaway

Translate the topic into the next project question

After reading the update, ask whether it changes your rollout timing, the size of the pilot, the readiness of the site or the way you should frame risk for internal stakeholders. That is where a market signal becomes useful for a live project.

The goal is not only to stay informed, but to decide whether the topic belongs in the management discussion, the technical workshop or the operating model review for the target flow.

In practice, the best use of the article is to convert it into one clear follow-up question for the project team instead of treating it as standalone industry news.

Pilot timing

Use the article to decide whether the pilot should start sooner, wait for more data or stay within the original sequence.

Scope fit

Check whether the message really matches your carrier logic, route density, staffing model and integration depth before acting on it.

Decision owner

Assign the topic to the right conversation so it supports a real decision instead of becoming another isolated industry update.
