"Ultra thin glass membranes for advanced, adjustable and affordable quadruple glazing windows for zero-energy buildings" (MEM4WIN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

"Windows are critical elements to control the energy performance of buildings especially for zero-energy buildings. It is of paramount importance to develop windows which show reduced U-value, weight and costs and certain features to control and harvest energy. Such a window will have a high impact in the window industry and will reduce green house gas emissions as long as the window is affordable ...

Smart production of Microsystems based on laminated polymer films (SMARTLAM)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2016,

Today´s fabrication methods for micro devices can require expensive tooling and long turnaround times, making empirical, performance-based modifications to the design expensive and time consuming. These methods also are limited in their flexibility, so that complex devices, that incorporate on-board valves, separation media, membranes, and recirculating pumps, cannot be developed and adapted witho ...

Snow generation with reduced energy consumption and noise emission, more consistent quality and extended operating temperature ranges (EcoArtiSnow)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2014,

Mountainous regions are often strongly dependent on tourism, particularly on winter tourism. Technical snow is of vital importance in operating ski resorts that are fighting climate change. Operating costs and environmental aspects considerably gain importance and threaten feasibility of snowmaking.This proposal presents a multi-barrier approach to establish a scientific basis in technical snowmak ...

Toolkit for building low cost robot co-workers in assembly lines (LOCOBOT)

Start date: Aug 1, 2010, End date: Jul 31, 2013,

The European automotive industry and their component manufacturers are facing the biggest shift in their history. The transition from combustion engines to electric drives (e-vehicle) requires pro-duction facilities that can initially deal with low and varying production volumes and can quickly be up-scaled to large numbers at need. LOCOBOT provides a solution to this problem by developing a flexi ...

Efficient 3D Completeness Inspection (3DComplete)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

In Europe there are about 3000 SMEs working in the field of machine vision. These SMEs provide services and products to another 300.000 SMEs in the machine building and automation sector. One important application of machine vision is quality control and in particular checking the completeness (presence/absence of parts, correct type, position, orientation, …) of assemblies. Existing systems usual ...

Model-Driven Embedded System Design Environment\nfor the Industrial Automation Sector (MEDEIA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,

The level of automation and system complexity in factories and plants increases steadily which results in difficult and less-productive system engineering. Therefore, the main target of the MEDEIA project is to radically improve the development productivity of embedded control systems for the European industrial automation sector. The project results will reduce their system design time by 25%, wh ...
