Pi tech has received approval for three new European projects aimed at addressing complex societal challenges.. These initiatives aim to drive impactful advancements in disaster management, digital transformation in education and the integration of circular economy principles into learning environments.
MR@REAM (2024-2025)
Program: 6G-SANDBOX OC2, Horizon Europe
Focus: Remote Earthquake Area Management through Real-Time Immersive Mixed Reality Streaming
Overview: The MR@REAM project leverages Mixed Reality (MR) technology to develop an advanced platform for managing disaster scenarios, particularly in earthquake-prone areas. The platform will enable real-time immersive MR streaming, providing critical support to first responders by offering remote monitoring and guidance during field operations. This innovative approach will enhance situational awareness, improve decision-making capabilities and optimize the allocation of resources, ultimately contributing to more effective disaster management strategies.
Creative In Green (2024-2026)
Program: Erasmus+ Higher Education (KA220-HED)
Focus: Supporting the Dual Digital and Green Transition of the European Audio-Visual and Multimedia Sector Using XR
Overview: Creative In Green aims to integrate Extended Reality (XR) technologies into the educational framework to support the green and digital transformation of the European audio-visual and multimedia industries. By providing digital educational tools and resources, the project will facilitate the adoption of sustainable practices and enhance digital literacy among students and professionals. Creative In Green seeks to prepare the next generation of professionals for the challenges and opportunities presented by the evolving demands of these sectors.
EduCIRCULAR (2024-2026)
Program: Erasmus+ School Education (KA220-SCH)
Focus: Empowering Secondary Education Students for a Green Future Through XR-Based Circularity Thinking Strategies
Overview: EduCIRCULAR introduces an XR-based educational approach to promote the principles of a circular economy within school curriculums across Europe. The project will develop digital tools and learning content that allow students to explore concepts such as recycling, resource management, and sustainable consumption. EduCIRCULAR aims to equip young learners with the knowledge and skills required to contribute to a sustainable and resilient future, fostering a new generation of environmentally conscious citizens.
These projects align with Pi tech’s vision of integrating technology with education to address critical global challenges. By utilizing advanced technologies such as Mixed Reality and Extended Reality, Pi tech aims to enhance educational outcomes and contribute to the development of sustainable and resilient communities. Each initiative reflects a commitment to advancing the state of the art and its application in real-world contexts, promoting both digital transformation and environmental sustainability.
