HORSE Aveiro — Physical AI for industrial buildings

Industrial use case developed through the European SCAIRA programme — Digital Twin study of the CFT building.

2025–2026 · Aveiro, Portugal

  • HORSE Powertrain

Planta Smart Homes developed an industrial Physical AI use case for the HORSE site in Aveiro, centred on the CFT building. The work included a Digital Twin study, environmental and operational analysis, and a full Physical AI proposal for future implementation.

Challenge

Industrial buildings need a shared perception across energy, air, water, comfort, occupancy and operations to improve output and reduce cost.

Flows Studied

  • Energy consumption
  • CO₂ and indoor air quality
  • Temperature and comfort
  • Water and resource flows
  • Occupancy and building use
  • Maintenance intelligence

System Built

  • Digital Twin of the industrial building
  • Environmental and operational analysis
  • Sensor architecture
  • Physical AI proposal for future implementation

App Layer

PlantaOS — operator-facing dashboards, 3D twin, deep-dive analysis, alerts and sensor deployment views.

Results

  • Digital Twin study of the CFT building at HORSE Aveiro
  • Full Physical AI proposal delivered
  • Commercial proposal for future rollout under discussion
