Abstract

The manufacturing industry is undergoing profound changes, so much so that it recognizes a new phase, called Industry 4.0 both for the shape and structure of the supply chain, production of goods and energy transition. An example of this epochal change is the auto and boat motive sector; a sector that sees the increasingly marked electrification of its products, characterized in parallel by a percentage modification of materials and production methods (new materials, 3D print). The development of the smart city is closely connected with the phenomenon of Industry 4.0, both in terms of mutual capacity for innovation, integration and digital transition, which makes its effects felt as well as in production lines, supply chains, with tangible effects in the urban spatial distribution of goods and services. The goal of the paper is to investigate the effects of industry 4.0 on slow and ecological mobility and in new environments: protected areas (natural and semi-natural parks) and historical and cultural areas. The case studies are: Natural Park of Molentargius and Archaeological Park ok Nora in the metropolitan city of Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy) that represent a significative case of contamination lab (Luna Rossa team, Atena and Dicaar of University of Cagliari).
