Inside the Italian Pavilion, designed by architect Mario Cucinella – who studied at the University of Genoa – RAISE is featured in several ways and at various moments.
Throughout the week, during which Liguria takes center stage in the space dedicated to Italian regions, the four themes of the RAISE ecosystem will be presented to the public through a video titled EXPOsing RAISE, Present and future of Italian Robotics and AI.
The video is a multimedia summary that showcases the best innovations produced so far by RAISE, presented as a dialogue between two robots – one Italian-made, R1, and one Japanese, Pepper – symbolizing the encounter and exchange between Italian and Japanese culture and design.
These two humanoid robots are involved in several RAISE projects. In Osaka, they guide visitors through the Italian Pavilion on a journey through the activities and current results of the four scientific Spokes.
The theme of the inclusive smart city, developed by Spoke 1, is illustrated not only with 3D models of the Brignole and San Martino neighborhoods (CNR-IMATI), but also with video clips from the RAISE Village at the 2024 Science Festival, particularly showing visitors—children and seniors—interacting with technology (interactive tables, robots, etc.) as well as with RAISE researchers (UniGe).
The video also includes interfaces of innovative digital services and data management platforms for a smart, inclusive city, developed by ETT and UniGe, both for citizens and decision-makers.
Spoke 2 is represented with 3D models of organs, particularly the brain and kidney, which are already being used to enhance surgical procedures in hospitals that are part of the ecosystem. It also features advanced heart diagnostics (Esaote) and 3D-printed reproductions of the spine. Smart environments are also showcased, including FISM‘s smart kitchen, as well as the AIMOKA project’s sensorized glasses and insoles.
An iconic hug between Pepper and a UniGe researcher who programs the robot symbolizes the theme of robotics applied to personalized care—both at home and in hospital settings. R1 also features as a guide throughout the experience, and appears at the end, displaying a heart on its face.
Marine eco-robotics from Spoke 3 is illustrated through 4D and 5D models from the NEPTUNE™ project, including footage from the February “mission” in the Portofino Marine Protected Area, using ROVs and MYWAI’s platform. Other video segments show not only the beauty of the Ligurian sea and coastline, but also the famous Christ of the Abyss.
Eco-robotics applied to soil and the protection of cultural heritage is featured through 3D models of churches and video footage of field experiments with a tracked robot and drone in Aggio (Genoa), developed by UniGe in collaboration with IIT, ETT, and Info Solution. The latter also showcases another robot in a vineyard, performing pruning tasks with a robotic arm developed by the IIT team.
Environmental monitoring is represented with interfaces from ETT’s data management platform, used for marine and coastal data. Finally, 3D models of the Port of Genoa are used as elements in a serious game.
Spoke 4 contributes content focused on smart logistics at the port, safety (including the use of quadruped robots), and tourist engagement through social robots—Pepper and Alter Ego—deployed both at the port and in other locations such as the Genoa Aquarium, thanks to researchers from CNR, IIT, and UniGe. One futuristic image of a robot “camallo”(dockworker) was co-created with AI during the RAISE The Future project, in collaboration between ITD and IAS.
The video was made possible thanks to the collective effort of over 100 people from the RAISE ecosystem, and features underwater robots, quadrupeds, humanoids, and drones.

A new strategic agreement between AMT Genova (Azienda Mobilità e Trasporti) and RAISE (Robotics and AI for Socio-economic Empowerment) paves the way for a collaboration aimed at testing innovative technologies in the areas of urban mobility, accessibility to services, and environmental monitoring.
The recently signed memorandum of understanding lays the groundwork for joint activities that promote the integration of public transportation and technological innovation, with a direct impact on citizens’ quality of life.
AMT’s fleet plays a central role in the project, becoming a mobile platform for real-world testing of technologies developed within the Ligurian innovation ecosystem.
The initiative focuses on two main operational areas, developed in synergy with the “E. Magenes” Institute for Applied Mathematics and Information Technologies (IMATI) and the Institute for Anthropic Impacts and Sustainability in the Marine Environment (IAS), both part of the National Research Council (CNR).
The scientific and technological partnership also includes the University of Genoa, the CIMA Foundation, and ETT S.p.A., thus strengthening a collaborative network launched within the RAISE program.
The first line of action involves the development of intelligent solutions for increasingly accessible, sustainable, and inclusive mobility. The installation of sensors on vehicles and at stops enables real-time data collection on the use of public services and accessibility conditions. The collected data allows for the creation of digital tools for route planning, travel assistance, and service adaptation to users’ specific needs, with particular attention to people with motor or visual impairments. The technologies being tested provide up-to-date information on vehicle occupancy, crowding levels, and stop accessibility.
The second operational focus is on environmental monitoring. AMT buses are equipped with advanced sensors capable of detecting atmospheric and climatic parameters in real time, such as particulate matter concentration, heatwaves, and other extreme weather events. The collected data complements existing databases and helps improve the ability to predict and respond to critical events, enhancing urban adaptation strategies to climate change.
The agreement is a concrete example of technology transfer from research centers to society, in line with the objectives of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), which supports RAISE through Mission 4, Component 2.
The initiative confirms AMT’s commitment to promoting cutting-edge solutions for urban mobility and fits within a broader vision of social and environmental sustainability.
The collaboration between AMT Genova and RAISE Ecosystem lays the foundation for an increasingly intelligent public mobility system, attentive to people’s needs and capable of actively contributing to environmental protection.
On June 4, during the “Expo of Innovative and Sustainable Solutions” at the Genova Blue District, Spoke 3 and Spoke 4 of RAISE took part in the Blue Festival with three demonstrations focused on marine environmental monitoring.
The initiative is part of the Blue Festival, a city-wide event dedicated to climate, oceans, and biodiversity, held from June 3 to 14. The festival features exhibitions, workshops, talks, performances, screenings, gaming, and a showcase of innovative solutions.
During the event, three prototypes were presented by CNR-IAS and ETT: OpenCTD, @lgawarning, and an ROV equipped with biofouling analysis technology.
OpenCTD is a tool for measuring marine temperature and salinity. Compact and easy to handle, it enables fast and reliable collection of physico-chemical data in water. The process involves a simple manual start, immersion to stabilize the sensors, and subsequent data retrieval via SD card. Ease of use is combined with good precision in environmental data collection.
@lgawarning is an integrated system for monitoring algal blooms, based on a sampling kit and a mobile app with GPS functionality. Users can collect and analyze water samples, take microscopic images using a smartphone, and generate georeferenced reports. The interface also helps visually identify the algae through an educational quiz, encouraging active participation from citizens and professionals. Within the RAISE project, an AI model is being trained on a photo database of toxic algae samples (e.g., Ostreopsis cf. ovata) to enable recognition of such species in environmental samples.
The third device is an ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) equipped with software for assessing biofouling — the accumulation of organisms on surfaces exposed to seawater, such as ship hulls. This system employs deep learning techniques for visual analysis of submerged surfaces and has been developed as part of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan. Neural networks enable image segmentation to distinguish between clean surfaces, hard fouling, and soft fouling. Integration with the remotely operated vehicle allows for real-time analysis, with potential applications for sustainable management of marine infrastructure in accordance with IMO guidelines.
As part of efforts to monitor the health of marine ecosystems, “early warning systems” are being developed, combining environmental research and AI to analyze swimming movements and appendages of marine zooplankton organisms (such as crustaceans and cnidarians).
Spoke 3 contributes to the development of ecorobotics, an emerging field that combines robotics and artificial intelligence for environmental protection. Its contribution to the Blue Festival highlighted the strategic role of innovation in building a sustainable future.
Spoke 4 focuses on the development of smart and sustainable ports through the integration of robotics and AI systems. Its main goal is to make port operations safer, more efficient, and environmentally sustainable, including the implementation of tools to reduce environmental impact.
All events are free of charge. The full program is available on the official website.
