In this sense, the jury values, especially, the innovation in the design and the conception of the machine, the use of new materials, the innovative applications of automatisms, the technicians of artificial vision and the robotics as well as the adoption of criteria of concurrent engineering and of innovative solutions, allocated to give fulfillment to the valid regulation on measures of security of the machines. The Prize to the Technological Innovation, the Prize to the Security in the Design of Agricultural Machines and the Contest of Innovations in the Sector Frutícola have been summoned by Fira of Lleida and sponsored by the Demarcation of Lleida of the Official School of Industrial Engineers of Catalonia, the Official School of Industrial Technical Engineers of Lleida and the Consortium of Economic Promotion of the City council of Lleida, respectively./p>
