COMPACT BIOPHOTONIC PLATFORM FOR DRUG ALLERGY DIAGNOSIS (COBIOPHAD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

Drug hypersensitivity to antibiotics, mainly Beta-lactams (BLCs) affects more than 2.5 million European citizens. Moreover, preventable adverse drug reactions are estimated in additional hospitalization costs of 1750-4500 €/patient. Currently, the allergy diagnosis is mainly based on the information given by invasive, single, and risky in vivo assays. In daily practice, few in vitro diagnostic met ...

Reclamation of Gallium, Indium and Rare-Earth Elements from Photovoltaics, Solid-State Lighting and Electronics Waste (RECLAIM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

Prospective global supply and demand for gallium, indium and other key metals show an increasing discrepancy, amongst others due to the explosive growth of green technologies such as photovoltaics (PV) and solid-state lighting (SSL). While their primary production is highly controlled by a few countries, recycling systems to reclaim these materials from discarded products are not yet in place. Thi ...

Development of corneal biomechanical model. Dynamic topographical characterization based on 3D plenoptic imaging (POPCORN)

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

Uncorrected refractive errors are the second leading cause of blindness. Procedures detecting and correcting those errors, such as regular eye exams, glasses or contact lenses or refractive laser based surgery, could thereby transform the lives of millions of people. It is known that successful laser based refractive eye surgery can reduce or even cure common vision refractive errors, as well as, ...

"Multiple Application UV Camera for highly reliable, cost effective, long range and early detection and accurate localisation of fire" (UV-MULTICAM)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

"The UV-MULTICAM (Multiple Application UV Camera) for highly reliable, cost effective early detection and accurate localisation of fire project will enable considerable reduction in the damage caused by forest fires and industrial fires. With an excellent consortium including experts in the field of VUV sensors, opto-electronics, integration and industrialisation, we will demonstrate our advanced ...

Architecting Manufacturing Industries and systems for Adaptability (AMISA)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

Systems provide value through their ability to fulfill stakeholders’ needs. Inevitably, these needs evolve over time and diverge from an original system’s capabilities. Thus, the system must be disposed of or periodically upgraded at substantial cost.The objective of the AMISA project is to develop a generic, quantitative methodology for architecting manufacturing lines, product systems and custom ...

"System for highly reliable, cost effective, early detection and accurate localization of incipient forest fires" (FORFIRE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2011,

"Europe has suffered in the last years a large number of forest fires that has caused enormous losses in terms of human life and environmental damage. During 2007, more than 3376 square kilometres of forest and agricultural fields disappeared in smoke, causing the loss of more than 64 lives and more than 1.6bn Euros [1].These figures meant an increase of a 50% in southern European countries such a ...

Development of a Haptic Display and Vision System for the Blind (BRAVIS)

Start date: Sep 16, 2009, End date: Sep 15, 2011,

"We are proposing to develop a powerful technology that will give the sight-impaired a detailed view of their environment through a sophisticated imaging system displaying on a tactile interface. The system will require no special environmental adaptations and will be totally non-obtrusive. The user should be able to participate in a similar way to sighted persons in normal activities without any ...

Portable Particulate Detection Device (PORPARDET)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,

"Asbestos fibres are a major cause of disability and death in the construction, decommissioning and related industries. The ‘Porpardet’ project will address this through developing two innovative complementary portable automatic detection systems, based on novel concentrating and analysis methods for asbestos particles and certain other harmful materials of widespread concern, eg mineral quartz/si ...
