SAL: Are you still waiting, or are you already innovating?

Surely you know this: You have the ultimate idea for solving a central problem and want to open up new market opportunities, strengthen your market position and overtake your competitors with an innovation. Yes? Then you probably also know from your own experience that the path to funding consumes an essential resource: time! Time that the market does not give you. Time that you will miss for essential business activities.

SAL Develops New Micromirrors for Dynamic Light Functions

In cooperation with the research partners Silicon Austria Labs, Evatec, EV Group and TDK Electronics, ZKW is working on “micromirror” technology. This microelectromechanical system (MEMS) consists of a chip with integrated, microscopic mirror mechanics. The micromirror can be pivoted along two axes by piezoelectricity, enabling pinpoint guidance of a laser beam.

Wood: Functionalizing Wood with Electrically Conductive Films

Fitting wood and wood-based substrates with smart or intelligent surfaces is a prerequisite for using wood materials in smart homes in future. This requires the integration of electrically conductive layers, structures and sensors in the surface. To this end, the ConWood project has the aim of using magnetron sputtering to deposit a wide variety of metals, metal alloys and metal oxides on wood and wood-based materials to give the substrates the long-lasting electrical conductivity needed for each particular application.

COMET: Three Ground-Breaking Research Projects Launched

Competition in the 2nd call for grant applications for so-called COMET modules was fierce. 17 modules were submitted for funding from a budget sufficient to support six such proposals. Three, that is half, of the approved modules were submitted by research centres in the UAR Innovation Network – a remarkable success! Each module has a project budget of EUR 3.75 million and is scheduled to run for four years.

FFoQSI Uses Algorithms to Make Herbs More Stable

Because herbs grow close to the ground and are not tall they are susceptible to contamination with microorganisms. In addition, they are exposed to numerous environmental influences, leading to great inconsistencies in quality and high processing costs.
