ΣYN-LASER

The present project aims at the development of new processes for the assembly and the wire bonding of electronic circuits with digital laser printing and sintering technology, in order to integrate them into industrial processes of packaging and production of electronic circuits. In particular, the first application we describe is the assembly of electronic components with contact pad sizes smaller than the minimum dimension (0.2 mm) that the state of the art surface mount technology (SMT) can achieve. The proposed digital laser technology has a resolution of 10 micrometers, and allows accuracy in controlling the amount of conductive paste at the level of 10 nL. In addition, laser printing technology will be applied for the innovative manufacturing of electrical connections for integrated circuits in BGA packaging with a resolution of 10 micrometers. For the second application, printable materials with silver and copper nanoparticles will be designed, manufactured and characterized by two project partners, until their properties are optimized for high-conductivity and high mechanical strength interconnections.

ODOS 2020

The ODOS 2020 project, through the collaboration of 3 Companies and 3 Research Bodies, aims to introduce an innovative technological solution, which through the use of the Network of Things ("Internet of Things" - IoT) and infrastructure-vehicle communication technologies, implements collaborative applications in the field of Intelligent Transport Systems without substantial and costly interventions on the road, contributing significantly to the increase of road safety and the safe maintenance of the infrastructure. The complete technological solution is addressed to all types of vehicles (passenger cars, trucks, motorcycles,…) and requires minimal to zero equipment on the part of the vehicles. The proposed solution is based on the integration of a network of micro and nano sensors in special infrastructure components placed on the road, which collect real-time information presented on the terminals (smart phones, tablets integrated or not, etc.) in the form of drivers smart mobile applications that give the relevant announcements / information, warnings and recommendations to drivers and infrastructure operators while promoting road safety, transport efficiency, and timely troubleshooting of infrastructure.

ΕνΑυΣυ

Harvesting the untapped energy provided by ambient sources can provide power to sensors and micro devices, such as micro-antennas for wireless communications, without the need of changing batteries. Such a harvesting system can both enable monitoring of a structure and reduce downtime cost, especially in structural components being difficult or dangerous to access. Among energy harvesting material sources, piezoelectric materials are proved to be more efficient in terms of power density. The current project aims to the development of an autonomous system with respect to electric energy for monitoring and wireless transfer of sensory signals from wind turbine blades. The project’s partner scheme includes two top research labs for mechatronics and piezoelectrics and two industrial partners highly specialized in microelectronics and in the management of wind energy parks. The outcome is expected to provide extremely high added value to all partners, since the proposed system is novel and can be extended easily to a vast variety of structural applications.

ANASA

ConsentMe

ConsentMe is a research project, with code T2EDK-02902 and title “Development of Consent Management System (ConsentMe)”. The project is part of the National Action “Research, Create, Innovate” and is funded by the Operational Program “COMPETITIVENESS, ENTREPRENEURSHIP & INNOVATION” (EPANEK) 2014-2020.

In 2016, the European Union passed the General Data Protection Regulation 679/2016, also known as the GDPR, and entered into force in May 2018. Its purpose is to ensure control by natural person of the processing of their personal data by organizations-companies.

One of the basic principles of the Regulation is the Principle of Legality of processing, such as the satisfaction of the need for proof by those who process personal data regarding the legal act of processing. It can be based, among other things (legal interest, the conclusion of a contract, legal obligation, performance of a public duty), and on the consent of a natural person.

ICE

This project aims to develop an innovative product named Innovative Cultural Experience (ICE), which combines the following cutting-edge technologies:

1. Transparent Window - touch screen, interactive technology, 2. Augmented Reality, monuments-exhibits, 3D immersive video, intangible heritage narration. The product will provide a unique atomic or mass-touring experience, utilizing information based on material and intangible cultural heritage, through narrative scenarios.

ICE will be a Transparent Window’s advanced state of the art, in which any exhibit that will enter it will be able to display visually enhanced and augmented Reality information to the user / visitor (admin enabled). In addition, visitors can, using the built-in 3D Camera, upload their own Video with their views or impressions from the exhibit.
