On 20 November 20 2025, National Centre for Industry 4.0 organized a meeting of the AutoSAP Supplier Division at the RICAIP Testbed Prague at the Czech Institute of Informatics, Robotics and Cybernetics (CIIRC) at the Czech Technical University in Prague. The event attracted more than forty representatives of companies, research organizations, and partners of the center. RICAIP Testbed Prague, represented by its director Pavel Burget and head of IPA Team Petr Kolář, presented both the infrastructure available to SMEs and concrete use cases. The meeting supported the objectives of the RICAIP project by bringing together industrial and research partners and enabling them to share their experiences with the digitization and automation of production.

The Digitalisation Roadshow for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises visited the South Bohemian Region for the first time this year. The National Centre for Industry 4.0, in cooperation with the CzechInvest agency, organised another edition of the regional conference, this time hosted at the Faculty of Agriculture and Technology of the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. The main theme was Digital Tools for Efficient Production, which are fundamentally transforming the way Czech companies increase productivity, efficiency, and quality.

The teams of the RICAIP Testbed Prague at CIIRC CTU, together with the Brandýs nad Labem plant of Continental Automotive – transformed in September 2025 into the new global technology company AUMOVIO – have developed a unique system for creating a digital twin of a production line. For the first time, it enables a fully accurate simulation of the production environment and of camera systems functioning in connection with control logic and artificial intelligence. The solution uses the NVIDIA Omniverse platform and delivers a breakthrough in virtual commissioning, shortening the ramp-up phase of new production, increasing its reliability, and paving the way for full digital integration of manufacturing technologies. This innovation builds on RICAIP’s long-term focus on digital twins and advanced simulation tools.
