IMEC |
Battery-less wearable wireless EEG system powered by body
heat |
This is the first realization of a complex biomedical system fully
powered by the patient’s body heat. |
|
| IMEC | Wearable wireless EEG system self-powered by a hybrid power supply |
A battery-free 2-channel wireless encephalography (EEG) system
developed in 2008 powered by a hybrid power supply consisting of a
thermoelectric converter of human body heat and silicon photovoltaic
cells. |
|
IMEC |
Body-powered battery-less wireless SpO2 sensor |
A wireless pulse oximeter for non-invasive measurement of pulse and
blood oxygen saturation. |
|
| SINTEF |

heterogeneous devices comprising MEMS structures. |
|
| SINTEF | Sensors for wireless networks |
A sample of the several sensors for wireless networks developed by
SINTEF. |
|
| EADS Innovation Works | Multi-Criteria fire detector | The demonstrator detects two independent fire criteria (smoke and fire gases). A hundred-fold lower false alarm rate could be achieved. | |
| EADS Innovation Works | High performance photoacoustic gas monitoring system | It is a high performance method of gas detection that is based on infrared molecular absorption. | |
| EADS Innovation Works | Onboard Hydraulic Fluid Monitoring System |
It is a prototype of a sensor system that will allow phosphate-ester hydraulic fluids to be analyzed online for water content and total acid number using non-dispersive infrared absorption. | |
| EADS Innovation Works | Health and usage monitoring system | The system allows to avoid unnecessary deposit of flight computers and to limit the number of “No Fault Found”. | |
| EADS Innovation Works | Wireless Torque Limit Detectors for Aircraft Maintenance | Direct inspection of the wing parts looking for released switches is complex and costly. Therefore a wireless readout is desired for maintenance reasons. | |
| EADS Innovation Works | RF-Tags with Sensing Capability for Logistics | RFID tags consist of a small microprocessor surrounded by an antenna for data and power transmission. | |
| Philips | Stretchable electronics for large area applications for use in healthcare, wellness and functional clothes | Small wireless sensor assembly with accelerometer and stretchable substrate with embedded conductors.. |
