ITS Umbria Academy announces partnership with Rightware and ART SPA for the creation of a Kanzi Learning Lab

Passignano sul Trasimeno, 28 November 2022

 

ITS Umbria Academy has signed an important partnership with Rightware, a Finnish software company, and ART SPA, an Italian automotive infotainment manufacturer, to develop the institute’s training programs.

 

The first implementation stage of this project focuses on creating HMIs with the Kanzi One development environment, specifically for the automotive sector. To support this mission, Rightware granted ITS Umbria software licenses and assistance to create a tailored training program in a new Kanzi Learning Lab at LABOMEC, the mechatronics laboratory of ITS Umbria in Foligno.

 

Thanks to didactic co-design, the lectures and technical assistance provided by ART allowed ITS students to follow a training course delivered according to the typical approach of the application didactics of the Higher Technological Institutes, which envisages close cooperation between schools and the business world.

 

ITS students thus had the opportunity to participate in the realization of advanced research projects, learning basic concepts related to key practices in UI Design/Interaction, which constitute a focal point for collaborative study and research with the automotive industry in the area of user interface design and development.

 

The ITS Umbria class involved in the project showed great appreciation for the project, with positive feedback from the students who recognized and highlighted the added value of this training experience related to the use of the industry-standard Kanzi One HMI tool. These skills will prove to be a very useful resource for their professional development in the working world.

 

Thanks to the success of this first training experience and the advanced stage of implementation of the Kanzi Learning Lab at LABOMEC, ITS Umbria Academy, in agreement with Rightware and ART, intend to continue the program of collaboration, to give continuity and further impetus to the educational models implemented by ITS Umbria Academy, in this case, in the mechatronic and digital fields.

 

ITS Umbria

ITS Umbria is a post-diploma academy in applied sciences and technologies promoted by the Ministry of Education and the Umbria Region, along with the main companies in the area. At the end of the two-year program, through a modern and practical educational system aimed at technological innovation, it offers its students a very high level of employment opportunities.

ART SKILL ACADEMY: A space where corporate culture flourishes.

ART is a fast-growing company, and in the last three years alone it has seen a doubling of its workforce. This has highlighted the need to adopt a new approach towards the continuous development of People.

In this brief interview with Emanuela Bernardini Head of Organization Development and
Andrea Narciso Head of Innovation Department, let’s explore the project ART SKILL ACADEMY.

 

 

1- What is the project ART Skill Academy?

 

Rather than a project, we will call it a journey: a journey that has lead us a long way from its beginnings and that is now beginning to bear fruit. In the last three years our company has seen an exponential increase in personnel, which, combined with the changing environment in which we live, is making it necessary to develop certain best-practices including the need for lifelong learning. Today more than ever, it is not only professional qualifications that are important, but increasingly, the human qualities that make us act as a cohesive and united team.

ART SKILL ACADEMY has as its primary objective to train People to deal with uncertainty and complexity. ART is experiencing a moment of development and transformation, which will also affect the work organization model. In order to make this growth sustainable for everyone, ART is providing its People with a space and a place where they can meet and grow also through the exchange and integration of diversity.

 

 

2- Who is the initiative aimed at?

 

All of us ART employees, the particularity of this initiative is precisely that it seeks to involve as many people as possible. We have always believed in the need to create a space where people can meet and grow, and this initiative is relevant to ART but above all to the people who populate it. We seek to provide those tools that allow the individual to grow

and then make our orga

nization stronger and more adaptive to the changes that are our constant.

 

 

3- What courses are planned?

 

Academy has two souls, the technical soul (Tech ART) and the human soul (Human ART). The technical experience is aimed at sharing not only what we do and how we do it, but also why we do it: the essence of doing in ART. The human experience is aimed at the Person, it is designed to make the culture that binds us as a team flourish. The Human catalogue is already structured, it includes 11 courses, one of which has been chosen by the company for everyone: “Proactive Mindset – Training for uncertainty and complexity”.

 

 

4- What are the benefits a person can gain from participating in the various courses?

 

This, we believe, is the question we feel happiest to answer. We hope and, we firmly believe, that participation in these initiatives is a first step towards the cultural changes that needs to be promoted in ART and that can be fostered by internalizing the concept of shared responsibility and the culture of error. Strengthening the workforce to consolidate the company’s solidity, a path that has people at its heart and, first and foremost, the quality of their lives. A company is neither better nor worse than those who work in it, it is an act of responsibility towards our community.

MATE: GUARANTEED QUALITY WITH ISO/IEC 17025:2017 COMPLIANCE

Last June, MATE was recognised for having achieved compliance with the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for vibration and shock testing.

Mate, a company of ART group, has grown very much in the past four years. Stefano Marchetti, the company’s managing director, knows this well and has made fundamental contributions towards the company affirming itself as a “small but big” rising star born between Umbria and Tuscany; a company and a team which distinguish themselves not only for technical
know how but also for problem solving ability, as well as organisational skills and order, which are all fundamental aspects in the field of testing and technical trials.

As a crowning moment for the growth of the company, Accredia – the Italian entity for accreditation- accredited Mate as an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 compliant laboratory for vibration and shock testing. This enables the company to offer clients an extremely high level of quality both
during the testing process as well as in the accuracy of the values that result from testing, guaranteeing maximum reliability even at the international level. Specifically, compliance with the standard indicates that the measurement of uncertainty specific to a laboratory for a certain test be contained within the values required by the method of testing. In MATE’s case, for instance, 10% on the value of acceleration.

As we all know, however, exams never end in life! In six months Accredia will evaluate MATE again. Meanwhile, the company is assessing how to reinforce the structure dedicated to this kind of activity, while the number of certified tests will be enhanced, as next year accreditation for Climate testing is expected.

MATE therefore becomes a complementary asset towards the verticalization of ART, an accredited testing laboratory at the service of clients from two markets especially: automotive and aerospace, where certifications of this kind are fundamental towards the recognition of high
quality work.

eCockpit innovative solution

ART had the pleasure to participate to Embedded World 2019 as guests in NXP booth, to present an eCockpit solution based on i.MX8 QuadMax System-on-Chip.

We leveraged i.MX8 HW resource partitioning capabilities to run infotainment and instrument cluster functions as separate environments on the same processor, without using any SW supervisor. At the same time, we showed how these functions can be merged together in order to provide a smooth experience for the car occupants.

Many thanks to NXP for hosting us – keep up the great work!n
