Special Feature: Charged up and ready to roll! Electric vehicles take to the road

Summary:

In this issue of Research*EU Magazine we’re having a closer look at innovative EU-funded efforts to increase the appeal, range and functionality of electric vehicles.

This month’s Project of the Month feature focuses on Pepper, a humanoid robot working under the CARESSES project, who made history by being the first robot to give evidence to a parliamentary panel, specifically the UK’s House of Commons Education Select Committee. Pepper provided insights on how artificial intelligence can contribute to the world’s ‘fourth industrial revolution’.

Life After catches up with one of the key researchers of the now-closed SHDS project that has been working towards stronger earthquake defences. You can also find out about some of the most intriguing EU-funded project events and relevant international days in EU Agenda, and, as per usual, catch up with the latest developments in our nine regular thematic sections.
