Zero emission ship carrot and stick

As discussed in the IDTechEx report Electric Boats and Ships, there are several ways a boat or ship can be zero emission. It can be a fuel cell hybrid if the fuel is available where needed or pure electric where suitable charging is deployed. It can be an energy independent electric vehicle never needing fuel or charging stations.

Asian Nanotechnology Breakthrough

CERADROP, a MGI Group company, has supplied the Institute for Nanotechnology (INT), Vietnam National University - Ho Chi Minh City (VNUHCM) with one of its TurnKey Materials Deposition Inkjet Platform - CeraPrinter X-Serie.

The biocomposite market cannot grow fast enough

Fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) are predominantly made of synthetic fibres, such as glass or carbon, and a petrochemically sourced thermosetting resin or thermoplastic matrix. However, natural fibres and resins are on the rise because of their beneficial properties, competitive cost, legislative drivers, and consumer preferences.

AI for coming mirrorless cars

The industry's highest performing automotive camera technology that detects various object types at distances of up to about 100 meters, which will enable drivers to receive advanced warning for enhanced driving safety in coming mirrorless cars.

Robots aid better understanding of phytoplankton blooms

Phytoplankton blooms are one of the most important factors contributing to the efficiency of the carbon pump in the North Atlantic Ocean. To better understand this phenomenon, the ERC remOcean project has developed a new class of robots: biogeochemical profiling floats, the first robots able to collect data in the ocean throughout the year.
