Cluster 1

On September 23rd-26th, 2025, LTU participated in the 13th IEEE International Conference on Cloud Engineering (IC2E) conference in Rennes, France. LTU presented a paper on ColonyOS, an open-source meta-OS that coordinates distributed workloads across diverse computing environments, including practical experiences from two industrial deployments: real-time seismic monitoring at RockSigma AB and integration with EuroHPC supercomputers. This contribution concerns COP- PILOT Cluster 1 and the need for flexible use of cloud resources for analytics, e.g., to analyse seismic activities in use case 1.1.

ThingWave at IMARC 2025 – Showcasing Digital Innovation in Mining From 21 to 23 October 2025, ThingWave AB, a key COP-PILOT partner, will participate in the International Mining and Resources Conference + Expo (IMARC) in Australia, a leading global event for mining industry professionals. IMARC brings together industry leaders, C-suite executives, and solution providers from over 120 countries to discuss trends in operational excellence, ESG, mine digitisation, and business resilience. With six concurrent conferences, strategic keynotes, and over 500 exhibitors, the event serves as a hub for innovation and collaboration across the mining value chain. At IMARC, ThingWave will showcase work

Automationsdagarna (Automation Days), organised by Instrumenttekniska Föreningen, brought together industry experts to discuss the future of industrial automation and to award Sweden’s annual Automation Award. At the event, Predge AB was represented by Wolfgang Birk, who delivered an invited talk on “Predictive Maintenance and the industrialization perspective.” In his presentation, Wolfgang Birk examined why predictive maintenance, despite its promise to improve efficiency and reduce costs, still faces challenges in large-scale industrial deployment. He highlighted the role of digitalisation and integrated condition-monitoring data as key prerequisites and discussed how technological and human factors often limit broader adoption. As part of the talk,

Cluster 1 Represented COP-PILOT at the Swedish SME Pitch Session during PDAC 2026 Cluster 1 partners represented COP-PILOT Horizon at the Swedish SME Pitch Session, a high-profile networking and presentation event held as part of the PDAC 2026 Convention in Toronto, Canada. The event was designed to showcase innovative Swedish mining and exploration technologies to an international audience of industry stakeholders, investors, and potential partners. Organised in collaboration with the Embassy of Sweden in Canada and the Embassy of Canada and supported by Swedish Metals & Minerals and LTU Business, the session formed part of the broader Swedish delegation activities taking

On 11 March, ThingWave AB participated in the NorthStar Community Meeting at Luleå University of Technology in Sweden, where it presented an early prototype developed within the COP-PILOT Horizon Europe project. The demonstration showcased how COP-PILOT technologies are being applied to improve safety in underground mining environments.  The prototype implemented a geofencing concept, where data from a ThingWave RBM-XR bolt sensor triggered physical visual alerts to enhance hazard awareness. During the live demonstration, CEO Jens Eliasson simulated load and elongation on the instrumented rock bolt. The sensor data was used in real time to control an LED strip, visually indicating risk

HOSCH Group, partner in Cluster 1 – Industry (Mining), will attend Euro Mine Expo 2026. On this occasion, HOSCH Group will represent COP-PILOT through the following activities: Communicating COP-PILOT’s objectives and the progress of Cluster 1 use cases to mining industry professionals and technology stakeholders • Engaging with industry representatives to gather market insights and technological feedback • Distributing promotional and informational materials about the project and its collaborative open platform • Identifying potential adopters, follow-on collaboration opportunities, and relevant stakeholders for ongoing dissemination activities Euro Mine Expo is a highly relevant venue for Cluster 1, given its strong focus on
