Projects
Research Infrastructures
x-Energy Lab – Smart Grids & Electric Vehicles
At the X-Energy Lab, we aim to test and validate innovative solutions for the decarbonisation of the economy, focusing on their integration into power grids and on smart grids, electric mobility, and active consumption management. At the same time, X-Energy serves as a hub for collaboration and education, welcoming external researchers and promoting knowledge dissemination through publications and the sharing of open data and code. Location: INESC TEC headquarters.
Communications Laboratory
We focus on disseminating large volumes of data, securely and rapidly. At CommsLab, we explore advanced mobile communication technologies across optics, electronics, and radio. We research, prototype, and test 5G, 6G, and Wi-Fi solutions to connect people, machines, and devices in an efficient, reliable, and intelligent way, ensuring that information sharing between these agents keeps up with the digital transformation. Location: INESC TEC headquarters
Laboratory of Robotics and IoT for Smart Precision Agriculture and Forestry
The TRIBE LAB provides Research and Development (R&D) services for the creation of advanced technological solutions in robotics, automation, and IoT, specifically targeting the challenges of precision agriculture and forestry. Through a collaborative and user-centred approach, TRIBE LAB co-develops technologies tailored to real-world operational contexts—from rapid prototyping to validation in real environments—ensuring applicability, efficiency, and direct impact. Location: FEUP Campus.
GRAPHICS
It is combining multidisciplinary areas that we develop solutions to optimize the relationship between people and technologies. This infrastructure comprises two distinct facilities: one in Porto, dedicated especially to Computer Graphics, Human-Computer Interaction and Digital Games; another in Vila Real, focused on creating Multisensory, immersive and authentic experiences based on Virtual and Augmented reality. Dual Location: FEUP and UTAD.
