Satellite monitoring of roads, robots for healthcare, medical imaging with AI and algorithms to guar-
antee the authenticity of food: the 4 projects of the Physical, Chemical and Engineering Sciences
Macrosector (FOMO Line)
Unimore’s FAR 2024 call for proposals has funded four projects in the ERC Macrosector of Physical, Chemi-
cal and Engineering Sciences, with a contribution of around €70,000 each. Three projects are coordinated
by the ‘Enzo Ferrari’ Department of Engineering: SAT-SAFE: Develops satellite monitoring and BIM methods
for the safety assessment of road infrastructure, with a focus on predictive bridge maintenance. ROBIN3:
Introduces the NAO robot into clinical practice for the treatment of patients with autism spectrum disorders,
facilitating diagnosis and treatment through improved interactions. Synthetic Data: Uses synthetic data to
overcome the limitations of medical imaging, creating artificial images to train artificial intelligence models.
The fourth project, GreenTrace, co-ordinated by Prof. Caterina Durante of the Department of Chemical and
Geological Sciences, integrates eco-sustainable analytical methods, machine learning and data manage-
ment to guarantee the authenticity and quality of agri-food products, such as Balsamic Vinegar of Modena
and honey, developing a system of traceability and authenticity for the consumer. The projects aim at
innovation, improved safety, health care and food transparency, with concrete applications in society and
industry.
