This proposal presents an unconventional method for the stimulation of the outer and middle ear that may change the current concept of hearing aids. Photons of the visible light are known to activate the visual sensory cells through photoreceptors. However, when the so-called stress-confinement condition is fulfilled, laser light can induce an acoustic signal through an optoacoustic effect. We ...

SENSIndoor aims at the development of novel nanotechnology based intelligent sensor systems for selective monitoring of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) for demand controlled ventilation in indoor environments. Greatly reduced energy consumption without adverse health effects caused by the Sick Building Syndrome requires optimized ventilation schemes adapted to specific application scenarios like ...
