The goal of DIGIMATER-CM is to create a research platform to accelerate the development of materials through digital strategies. This includes robotic automation of repetitive tasks and the use of artificial intelligence to optimize experiments and exploit composition-processing-property relationships. The comprehensive approach will allow for an autonomous approach in optimizing properties and processing parameters. An autonomous laboratory will be developed with collaborative robots, generating knowledge through artificial intelligence techniques.
Funded by

The DIGIMATER-CM project “Digital strategies for autonomous discovery of materials for engineering applications” ( TEC-2024/TEC-102) is funded through the call for R&D project grants carried out in collaboration between research groups from universities and research organizations in the Community of Madrid under the R&D activity programs in technologies.
