Indicative Projects
Valasia
Nowadays, abrupt climatic and edaphic alterations have dramatically disrupted the normal function of the “environmental cycles”, as that of the water and nitrogen cycle etc. Phenomena like the “greenhouse effect” and the “eutrophication” induce the need for continuous monitoring and recording of abiotic factors (such as air and soil temperature, moisture etc.) that are the main contributors for the climatic and edaphic alterations.
Based on those abrupt alterations, ecosystems unable to acclimatize and adapt in time, resulting in difficulties in surviving. The most fragile ecosystems in maintaining their ecological balance are the forest ecosystems, due to their complexity by the increased levels of biodiversity. More about Valasia at www.balasia.gr
The project was co-funded by national and Community resources and resulted from the proclamation of Action COOPERATION 2009, funded by the Operational Programme 'Competitiveness and Entrepreneurship' (OPCII).

EDUSAFE
EDUSAFE is a 4-year Marie Curie ITN project that focuses on research into the use of Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality during planned and emergency maintenance in extreme environments (nuclear installations, space, deep sea etc).
In this project Prisma Electronics had a mission to develop a monitoring system using its corporate technology PrismaSense which relies on wireless smart sensor networks to monitor physical quantities (radiation, temperature, humidity, CO2, oxygen, air pressure, smoke, heart frequency, blood pressure, movement) and manages audio and video signals, so that supervisors get the full picture in real time, interact and intervene immediately.
Sending-receiving data is carried out by a portable transmitter unit (PTU) which is adjusted on the belt of each technician and is manufactured by Prisma Electronics.

MEPS
MEPS (Micro‐satellite Electric Propulsion System) is a three year programme aimed at the qualification of a propulsion subsystem based on a low power Hall Effect Thruster.
Prisma Electronics, as a subcontractor for lead partner Alta (Italy), will supervise the design and delivery of prototypes of the MEPS Power Processing Unit (PPU), in conjunction with 2 more Greek companies, Sitael Hellas and Inasco, in a program which is expected to last 33 months.
"For the first time in Greece we have created a standardized environment, which can produce certified electronic systems for use in space," Thanasis Potsis (President of the Greek Union of Industries of Space Technology and Applications 'EVIDITE').
