A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
Rivers, drainage and irrigation channels maintenance produces high amounts of waste biomass that can be divided into two macro-types: wood residues that are normally recovered and supplied as fuel to biomass plants and herbaceous residues that are...
It has been a long time since it is no longer possible to increase the performance of the calculation systems by increasing their working frequency, and it has also been a long time since the solution to the problem was identified in the use of the...
The JUMP project has developed and tested a sensorized platform based on an intelligent platform of force that, through the support of cameras for tracking, is able to provide information on sports performance through effective, ergonomic and usable...
MetAGEAR was born from the initiative of the InterMech regional laboratories MO.RE. and MechLav in order to develop innovative tools for the design and manufacturing of gears and transmission to be made available for the industrial base. MetAGEAR is...
Availing of new Open Source technologies in the ICT field, the project has experimented innovative hardware and software solutions, that allow an aware use of the water resource at the individual user level and the grey and meteoric water reuse...
Italy is one of the world's largest consumers of pesticides. IRRAOP solves the problem of the management of pesticide residues in sprayer tanks: to date there are no validated and effective systems or services able to avoid the dispersion of these...
The design was made in the Solidworks environment, based on the disclaimers provided by the customer. The overall layout has been designed to ensure the dependent movement of the two syringes, the one that withdraw blood and the one that mix blood...
Motion planning for robotic manipulators is usually considered a problem with well-settled solutions. However, also in this field, new applications, often non-standard, pose new challenges. Among them, the transporation/manipulation of liquid...
Automatic monitors analyzing atmospheric particulate allow to verify air quality in indoor and outdoor environments, to assess the exposure of the population to pollutants in different living environments, to identify the cause-effect relationships...
To contribute to identify the most effective choices towards a sustainable waste management, the MatER Study Center provides technical and scientific consultancy based on a thorough survey of the technologies and policies adopted for recovering...
Industrial robots are seldom capable to provide high precision in a mechanical machining process, thus are limited in their industrial use. The LaPIS laboratory @ INTERMECH-Mo.Re. proposes an integrated method for designing robotic systems, with high...
The technical and economic assessment of plants producing electrical and/or thermal energy from renewable sources (biomass, wind, photovoltaic, hydroelectric) is essential to design the plant itself and monitor its performance. The system's...
The assessment of product quality using objective techniques and the identification of defects or malfunctions during testing play an increasingly dominant role in enterprises. These objectives may often be pursued by studying the vibratory signal...
Especially over the last few years, the aspects connected to vibro-acoustic issues have been playing a key role within the design pathway of industrial products and machinery. In particular, following regulations that limit the emission of vibration...
Micro-valves are basic components of microfluidic systems as they allow fluids to be conveyed, exchanged and controlled. These devices may be either connected on a platform with microfluidic channels or integrated within more complex microfluidic...
FASTER (Fully Automated SysTem for Environmental monitoRing) is an autonomous system for aerial photography, thermography and remote sensing applications, suitable for ultralight aircraft and drones. The system makes it possible to acquire in real...
Tissue engineering is a multidisciplinary sector of biotechnologies which paves the way for new treatment options and better quality of life for patients. Tissue engineering techniques entail the use of biomaterials and scaffolds that must meet...
INTEGRO is a simple warp horizontal wooden structure with plywood sandwich deck and core in GFRP moulded grating (glass-fibre reinforced plastic). The main structural features are the high degree of rigidity of the deck, especially with regards to...
For the first time in history, during the PROUD-Car Test 2013 (held on 12 July 2013 in Parma) a driver-less vehicle navigated town streets open to regular traffic in total safety. Recently, other similar systems have been developed by other...
Application for mobile devices (smartphones or wearable video cameras) that allows the surrounding environment, objects and people and their actions and interactions to be recognised and understood. Processing takes place directly on the device, and...
