Living Architecture (LIAR)

Start date: Apr 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2019,

Living Architecture (LIAR) is a modular bioreactor-wall, which is based on the operational principles of microbial fuel cell technology and synthetic ‘consortia’ of microbes. LIAR is conceived as a next-generation selectively-programmable bioreactor and integral component of human dwelling, capable of extracting valuable resources from waste water and air, generation of oxygen and production of p ...

Sintering Regolith with Solar Light (RegoLight)

Start date: Nov 1, 2015, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Future human activity on the lunar surface will use 3D printing to build infrastructure from lunar soil using the Sun as the only source of energy. Today this technology is considered disruptive; tomorrow it will be the standard. The RegoLight project will investigate the sintering process of lunar regolith simulants by means of concentrated sun light in order to prepare for future lunar missions ...

Technologies and Human-Robot Collaboration for Surface EVA Exploration Activities and Training in European Analogue Environments (MOONWALK)

Start date: Aug 29, 2013, End date: Sep 1, 2016,

MOONWALK develops innovative technologies for co-operative human-robot space exploration (robot-assisted EVA). It uses and further develops European Earth analogue infrastructure to validate these technologies under simulated extraterrestrial planetary conditions (low gravity, extreme environmental conditions). Astronauts equipped with an EVA suit and special tools for EVA activities (e.g. exobiol ...

Forward Acquisition of Soil and Terrain for Exploration Rover (FASTER)

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

The goal of the FASTER project is to address three key technology developments for planetary exploration: forward looking surface properties characterisation, innovative locomotion system for a scout type rover, and collaborative operation of a mother/scout pair. 1.) The project will develop methods and instrumentation to characterise the properties of planetary surfaces in which robotic rover veh ...
