Successful Kick-off meeting of the Europe-wide research project UrbanSmartPark
UrbanSmartPark is one of the first projects within the KIC Urban Mobility, an European initiative supported by the European Institute of Innovation & Technology. The aim of the network is to create more liveable urban space and to integrate user-centred mobility services and products. The official start of the project UrbanSmartPark took place on January 20 and 21, 2020 in Braunschweig at the Automotive Research Center Niedersachsen (NFF). More information can be found here.
Projects strengthening the semi-conductor supply chain in Europe
The four ECSEL projects, PANACHE, THINGS2DO, WAYTOGO FAST, and WAKeMeUP, have targeted technology development and application demonstration in two main technology fields: FDSOI technology for high end low power application and Embedded Non-Volatile Memory enabling microcontrollers. Our group was participating in PANACHE and THINGS2DO and we are partner in running WAKeMeUP project now. See the video presenting these projects that are "tasked" with leveraging Europe's leadership in nano-electronics manufacturing.
Successful participation at CPS Summer School 2019
CPS Summer School 2019 took place in Alghero, Sardinia, from 23 to 27 September 2019. In its frame the Creative Lab was held to promote the exchange of ideas between PhD students and young researchers. The teams participating in the Creative Lab had to develop innovative ideas and projects and present them as an end-product to the audience. The team with our PhD student Raissa Likhonina won the first prize and got the certificate for the best business idea. See the winning Orange team.
Tutorial at CPS & IOT Summer School 2019
The Summer School on Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet-of-Things was held in Budva, Montenegro, from 10 to 14 June 1019. We presented implementation of HW accelerated video processing on industrial Zynq modules during the two-hours tutorial. See tutorial presentation slides in Proceedings.
UTIA Presentation at Embedded World 2019
We have presented our recent results at the EW 2019 exhibition held in Nuremberg from 26 to 28 February 2019. At the TRENZ Electronics company booth, we have demonstrated work related to ECSEL projects: Productive 4.0 Arrow Head Framework Demo on Trenz Electronic TE0820 and TE0726 boards, FitOptiVis Dynamic HW Reconfiguration on Xilinx ZynqMP TE0820-03-3EG-1EA module, SILENSE SciLab 5.5.2 Interpreter on Xilinx Zynq Ultrascale+ XCZU4EV and WAKeMeUP Field Oriented Control (FOC) of BL-DC motor on Trenz Electronic TE0720-03-2IF module with TEC0053-04 power PCB. See some photos from the booth.
SILENSE newsletter
SILENSE newsletter presents an actual information about the project progress. The first project newsletter from May 2018 focused on application of ultrasound for underwater communication and localization in wearables domain. The recently published October 2018 issue gives an insight into the applications of ultrasound technology in automotive domain, especially in personal cars. You can also subscribe to the newsletter on the SILENSE project website.
