The company Autegra d.o.o. launched on June 16th, 2025 the implementation of the project “Development of an innovative system for non-contact verification of proper seating of a metal cap on a glass bottle using infrared technology – INFRACAP”.
The project will be carried out under the Call for Proposals Proof of Innovative Concept – Third Call, financed through the Recovery and Resilience Mechanism.

The project, which focuses on the development of a non-contact system for verifying the proper seating of a metal cap on a glass bottle using infrared technology – INFRACAP, aims to prove the innovative concept developed by Autegra d.o.o. This concept addresses a critical challenge in the food industry related to final product quality control. INFRACAP, whose commercialization is expected after project completion, will enable fast and precise verification of correct cap placement on bottles, significantly improving product quality, production efficiency, and reducing the risk of contamination.
Implementation of the project will strengthen the applicant’s research, development, and innovation capacities, with project target groups including the company’s employees and management.

The project consists of the following activities:

A1: Experimental proof of the innovative concept for non-contact verification of proper seating of a metal cap on a glass bottle using infrared technology
A2: Laboratory validation of the technological concept for non-contact verification of proper seating of a metal cap on a glass bottle using infrared technology
A3: Innovation cycle management
A4: Administrative project management
A5: Information and visibility

By achieving the project purpose and results, the project will meet its specific objective – the development of an innovative product that will strengthen the applicant’s research, development, and innovation capacities, thereby enhancing the company’s readiness for developing new products, processes, and services. Achieving the specific objective also directly contributes to the general goal – improving final product quality control processes in the food and beverage industry. The project intervention is structured from the perspective of the target groups – the applicant’s employees and management.

The expected project results are:

R1: Proven innovative concept of a system for non-contact verification of proper seating of a metal cap on a glass bottle using infrared technology.
R2: Validated prototype for non-contact verification of proper seating of a metal cap on a glass bottle using infrared technology in a laboratory environment.
R3: Increased company capacity for research, development, and innovation.

The project is financed by the European Union.

Ana Šelek and Josip Spudić participated in the ICARA 2025 conference, which took place in Zagreb from 12-14. February. They presented their research in the field of robotics and autonomous systems and showed how new technologies can improve the precision and efficiency of robotic platforms.

✅ Ana Šelek presented her work “Reactive Navigation of the Ackermann Steering Robot in Unknown Environments”. She focused on the development of algorithms that enable a robot with Ackermann control to move safely through unknown environments. Its approach is based on reactive navigation, which allows the robot to quickly adapt to obstacles and changing conditions, which is crucial for applications in industry, agriculture, and autonomous vehicles.

✅ Josip Spudić researched “Reachability Optimization for an Autonomous Soil Sampling Platform with the Central Opening”. In his work, he investigated the optimization of a mobile platform for robotic soil sampling, using different methods to optimize arm accessibility. The optimal ranges of dimensions of the central opening are identified, which allows a reliable reference for the design of the mobile platform.

The work on display revealed new ways to make better robots, and at the conference, they discussed and agreed to collaborate with other experts in the field of robotics. This research helps to create robots that can do difficult jobs better, faster, and safer.
