Grants

Grants play an important role in promoting our cooperation and knowledge exchange with companies, knowledge institutions and government. Grant projects help to control the costs and risks associated with innovation.

From collaboration, we gain access to external expertise and research facilities. By joining forces, we can develop innovative solutions to complex challenges that positively impact the markets in which our customers operate.

The Innovation Agency

With a passion for innovation and technology, Leap's team is committed to identifying and exploiting relevant grant opportunities for us at regional, national and European levels. They speak our language and have knowledge of the subsidy landscape and related laws and regulations. 

Grants RAAK

Autonomous Agricultural Navigation

Developing control software to enable agricultural ground robots to operate fully autonomously.

These must be able to navigate indoors and outdoors, based on (RTK)GNSS, vision, odometry, suitable for open standards and to be used in a universal simulation environment (based on URDF).

Grants PPP

The Next Fruit 4.0

Conducting case studies for sensing, management information, robotization, preconditions, implementation, economic validation & innovation adoption for tomorrow's fruit growing using multifunctional robots. The project focuses on sensor innovations, orchard design and the development of prototype end-effectors for picking pears and pruning fruit trees.

Nextgen Grants (1)

NxtGen High-tech Apple Picking Robot

To develop a robot suitable for automatic apple picking in European orchards (later worldwide) and also suitable for automatic pruning.

Grants TFF

ROBoticBINpicking

The goal of this project is to get ROS2 and Artificial Intelligence for object recognition and pose estimation closer to industry by conducting applied research and a feasibility study by building a relevant demonstrator to showcase the technique.

Grants ERDF

Advanced detection and robotic sorting system for a circular economy

Developing an advanced, modular detection and robotic sorting system to quickly, flawlessly and autonomously sort all different metals and waste types from a (ferrous) waste stream.

Grants RAAK

Magnetic-Simulataneous-Localization-And-Mapping

An investigation into the extent to which a magnetic field can be used as an information provider to simplify the localization issue for AGVs. The main research question is:

How can we reprocess and incorporate MagSLAM technology into an AGV system?

MDIEU Sustainable employability
