"Smart Archaeology and ArcheoRobots"

Smart technologies involve the use of different collaborative and intelligent tools able to automatize several activities performed in the environment and in everyday objects. In archaeology, smart technologies can include sensors, close range sensing systems, robots, rovers, drones, laser scanners and specific software able to process data from multiple sources. The impact of smart technologies in the next decades will be revolutionary also for the social sciences, the humanities and the sciences of the past.
