Contrur: cone-shaped geometric structures Description “Contur” is an experimental product developed for a technological and scientific exploration of the shape effect that can affect biological, chemical, electronic and environmental systems. The system consists of cones inserted into each other on 0, 1/3 or 1/2 of their height (the focus position of 0%, 33% or 50%). […]
Assisi|bf: Animal and robot Societies Self-organise and Integrate by Social Interaction Description CORDIS information The aim of ASSISI_bf is to develop (1) a fundamental new class of distributed ICT systems, which are bio-hybrid collective adaptive systems (CASs) that consist of two sub-systems: One is a self-organising society of animals; the other one is a society
Biosensor based on fermentation activity of microorganisms Activity of microorganisms depends on several factors, among them — the quality of water, various emissions, strains of microorganisms, deviations in metabolic processes, etc. Favorable conditions stimulate activities, whereas pathogenic conditions inhibit them. A significant advantage of microorganisms as a biosensor is a high sensitivity, detection of nonspecific

Electrochemical Impedance Spectrometer General Description The CYBRES MU (Measurement Unit) is a compact device for differential electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) with two and four electrodes in the low frequency range. The device is able to perform accurate differential measurements in the time and frequency domain, comparing the properties of two liquid or organic samples. Such
FloraRobotica: Societies of Symbiotic Robot-Plant Bio-Hybrids as Social Architectural Artifacts information from the official web site floraRobotica CONDIS information The project’s objective is to develop and investigate closely linked symbiotic relationships between robots and natural plants and to explore the potentials of a plant-robot society able to produce architectural artifacts and living spaces. flora robotica responds to the work-programme theme ‘Knowing,
WatchPlant: SMART BIOHYBRID PHYTO-ORGANISMS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL IN SITU MONITORING Description Project homepage: https://watchplantproject.eu/ CORDIS description Wireless wearable devices can track our every move and monitor our health. This technology can also be used on plants for the benefit of urban policies, the agri-food industry and forestry. The EU-funded WATCHPLANT project will develop a wireless, wearable,
