Modular educational wave kit: Plug and play 3D printable sine wavesThe plug and play 3D printable sine waves are a simple but effective teaching aid which helps the students to understand wave properties better. They get to try for themselves how wave properties like constructive and destructive interference work. Further they get to explore the interdependence of the wavelengths and diffraction angles, the distances between the slits and the distances from the slits to the observation screen. This way, the famous single and double slit experiments, as well as the diffraction grating and its equation can be understood in an handsome manner that does not require any animations, as it is interactive by its playful nature. Further use of the same kit or a slightly modified version could include but would not be limited to: the modelling of water, pressure and all kinds of electromagnetic waves, all kinds of waves in general.University of Alberta, Technology Transfer Services posted this:

Monitoring of Esca viticulture disease symptomsUAV-based remote sensing data in the visible and near infrared range as well as thermal infrared data provide information on the vitality of a plant. Within the MonESCA project we could show that it is possible to take advantage of remote sensing observations to differentiate between symptomatic and non-symptomatic plants with respect to Esca. To do so, a sequence of methods was developed and applied. In detail, the analysis is represented by different classification methods, data reduction, pigment modelling and data combinations in order to classify the intensity of symptoms. The setup and optimization of an end-to-end processing chain for the detection and monitoring of Esca-related symptoms is currently in development. Moreover, the exploratory use of simple multi-spectral cameras is currently explored in the framework of the second phase of the MonESCA project. University of Vigo posted this:

Multi-functional medical suction deviceTracheostomy involves opening the area beneath the larynx, inserting into the tiny opening a properly shaped device, usually bent at right angles, and securing it to the neck in some form (often with a lumbar spine). Because the air bypasses the constriction, it provides continuous breathing and oxygenation. In the absence of appropriate environmental factors, only the most demanding medical device can provide the best treatment effect. The efficiency of treatment can only be achieved by satisfying all medical needs. It is essential for clinicians to use a reliable, accurate and safe medical aspirator. Accurate medical aspirators provide controllable suction levels and improve safety requirements in hospital wards, surgical sites, pathology laboratories, dental wards, mortality and postmortem rooms. The device is used to remove infectious material from wounds or any fluid from the patient's airway or respiratory system. The device can be used during surgery in the operating room or near patients' beds. The impact of using a mobile device (battery operated device) on patients and their carers is invaluable. Allows safe transportation for examinations, treatments. A portable machine with the right parameters can mobilize the patient and his / her nurse and family. It provides an opportunity to break free between the four walls, to experience familiar and new places and experiences, and to maintain a healthy mental state.USP Innovation Agency posted this:

Multimodel Transcranial Optical Vascular AssessmentSubdural hematoma (SDH) is a collection of blood between the inner layer of the dura and the brain that occurs mostly as a result of trauma. It is one of the most common neurosurgical conditions in the United States today. SDH monitoring for hematoma expansion would be beneficial to enable expeditious surgical intervention. Existing imaging technologies such as MRI and CT Scans, provide excellent brain imaging information, yet fail to provide continuous monitoring for real-time hemorrhage expansion. Novel imaging technology developed at the Weizmann Institute of Science, incorporates a combination of hybrid radio frequency and optical (RFO) modalities into a wearable device, for continuous subdural hematoma monitoring. This device is a safe, non-invasive and easy-to-use tool, that provides precise and continuous SDH surveillance. In addition to continuous monitoring, it has the capability to alert the patient and provide real-time information to the healthcare team.- Fabian BelinLuxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST)Fabian Belin

Muscle Strength Measuring DeviceBackground Manual muscle-testing and the use of a dynamometer are the most common methods to measure muscle strength. Currently used methods of semi- and quantitative measurement of maximal muscle strength require subject cooperation and thus depends on engagement of tested subject. Measuring muscle strength may be an important component of physical training or nutrition evaluation and assessment. Descricption of the Invention The lack of quantitative data of muscle strength resulted in the development of our device. Our solution is objective dynamometry. The device works on the principle of electrical stimulation of the musculus tibialis at the motor point by a series of stimulation with increasing intensity. The maximum muscle strength and muscle fatigue are determined from the measured values using torque sensor based on tensometric measurement. This noninvasive approach enables appropriately investigating the characteristics of muscles and assess distribution of fast and slow muscle fibers. Our device is intended not only for sports medicine (effect of training and nutrition on athletes’ performance) and for athletes themselves, but also for intensive medicine (sarcopenia, coma, long-term diseases). We have developed a prototype of second generation according to regulations that are required to follow for devices of such type. Advantages Currently, the devices on the market are based on dynamometric principle engaging human will. Our device operates objectively independently of human will. Our device is mobile, simple and easy-to-use. Our device is a suitable tool to screen for sarcopenia and identify effective ways for preventive and therapeutic interventions and thus prevent the disastrous consequences of sarcopenia. Moreover, our solution offers technique that teaches athletes how to improve their health and physical performance.- Fabian BelinLuxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST)Fabian Belin

MUST - Managing Urban Spaces TogetherMUST is an application aiming at fostering citizen engagement in urban planning design process. It relies on advanced interaction functionalities that enable to bridge the gap between the computational/optimization techniques handled by the urban experts on the one hand and the citizen participation in the design process on the other hand. Thanks to a flexible, dynamic, and iterative system, it accompanies urban experts in involving citizens in the early stages of an urban design project. More precisely, MUST covers and supports the dialogue and collaborative decision making during three interactions in the urban design process: -1st interaction - Capture of the citizens’ requirements in terms of needs and preferences (such as mobility, view, sunlight, noise, services…). MUST enables to classify the requirements in a participatory manner. After this prioritization, the system transforms them into quantified parameters and, through artificial intelligence, it processes them to transform them into exploitable inputs, in particular when dealing with correlated inputs. In this step of the early design process, MUST covers a direct participation process of the citizens. -2nd interaction - Diagnosis of the site and generation of an organization chart. After a first analysis of the selected site by the urban experts, a first diagnosis is provided to the citizens, as well as a continuous information exchange helping them to understand the decisions made. Thanks to the tangible interfaces provided by MUST, the citizens can collaboratively explore this diagnosis and then allocate the urban spaces in the selected site for the zone. Instant recommendations are being displayed on the tabletop whenever the allocated space does not meet with the requirements. This step of the design corresponds to the organization chart generation, a sketch-based task in traditional design process. -3rd interaction - Generation of the 3D building typology. In this design interaction, the experts are the main users of the system. Based on the requirements and on the organization chart set in earlier stages, the experts propose different scenarios. Each scenario is evaluated according to different indicators, including the indicators set by the citizens in early stage. This interaction enables a transparent design process where the end-users can evaluate and verify that their requirements are being considered. When relevant to meet citizens’ requirements, MUST also suggests solutions to improve the organization chart by proposing environmental features (such as wind, radiation, CO2 emission…) that are defined through optimization algorithms and machine learning. This application gives the possibility to designers and experts to focus on other creative aspects in the design while ensuring that the outcomes answer citizens’ requirements.
