🚀 RoboXR project completed!

After nine months of collaboration, development, testing, and validation, we are proud to announce the successful completion of RoboXR – Extended Reality Machine Tending for Industrial Learning.

Developed through the MASTER Open Call #2, RoboXR demonstrates how Extended Reality (XR) can bridge the gap between education and industrial automation by creating immersive, realistic learning experiences for future robotics professionals.

During the project, we successfully:

▪️Developed 4 immersive industrial XR learning scenarios
1. AI-assisted layout planning
2. Robotic machine tending
3. Human–robot safety training
4. Advanced industrial software control

▪️ Integrated the XR environment with an industrial automation software platform, enabling realistic robot behaviour and industrial workflows.

▪️Validated the solution with 24 participants from universities, industry, and technical experts in Cyprus and Germany.

▪️ Achieved excellent evaluation results:
- 91% improved familiarisation with industrial environments
- 91% improved familiarisation with XR technologies
- 82% improved understanding of robot handling and programming
- 82% recommendation score

A sincere thank you to everyone who contributed to the project, especially our German partner voraus robotik GmbH, all pilot participants, and the MASTER consortium for their continuous support.

The RoboXR journey may be complete, but its impact on XR-based industrial learning is only beginning.

🚀 Joined the MASTER XR Final Event in Oldenburg!

ECECT.eu and voraus robotik presented the RoboXR – Extended Reality Machine Tending for Industrial Learning, showcasing how XR can support immersive, hands-on robotics training.

The event highlighted the strong results of the Master_XR initiative, bringing together innovative projects that are advancing XR-based education, industrial training, and digital skills across Europe.

It was inspiring to exchange ideas, connect with other teams and project ideas, and be part of a growing XR ecosystem shaping the future of learning and industry.

A big thank you to the MASTER XR consortium for organizing such a great event!

🎯 Exciting milestone for the RoboXR project!

We successfully completed our pilot sessions in Cyprus, where students and educators explored and helped validate our XR-based robotics training application and educational scenarios.

Participants interacted with immersive industrial scenarios, gaining hands-on experience with robotic systems and machine tending processes in a safe virtual environment.

A big thank you to the Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου | University Of Cyprus and the University of Nicosia for hosting us and supporting this initiative!

Great engagement, valuable feedback, and strong interest in the future of XR & robotics education!

IT education should start with real people, real workflows, and real challenges.

We're proud to share two new outputs from the DITEC project:

📘 Methodology Guide for Engaging End-Users in IT Educationhttps://ditec.taltech.ee/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Methodology-Guide-for-Engaging-End-Users-in-IT-Education.pdf
📗 Designing Human-Centered Digital Systems: Case Studies for Modern IT Educationhttps://ditec.taltech.ee/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Designing-Human-Centered-Digital-Systems-Case-Studies-for-Modern-IT-Education.pdf

These resources help bring real-world organisational challenges into IT education, from schools and healthcare to public services, tourism, startups, and industry.

By combining end-user engagement, workflow analysis, case studies, and AI-supported learning, DITEC helps prepare future IT professionals to design digital solutions that are not only functional, but also usable, meaningful, and people-centred.
