A new transnational Project Meeting (midterm plenary meeting) took place on July 12-13 at the University of Minho, Guimaraes, Portugal. All the partners were represented, great to meet with in-person colleagues. The following topics were discussed during the meeting:

Revision of Intellectual Outputs
Multiplier Events
Transnational Meetings
Project management

During the meeting, the low-cost wearable haptic devices were distributed to the partners.

I take the opportunity to express my gratitude to the local organizer from the University of Minho.

A new paper has been published in the journal of Robotics. The selected article is:
