KIT - KIT - Media - Press Releases - PI 2021 - ZEISS Innovation Hub @ KIT Celebrates One-Year Anniversary

ZEISS Innovation Hub @ KIT Celebrates One-Year Anniversary The ZEISS Innovation Hub @ KIT was officially opened in a virtual event, one year after it became operational On 12,000 square meters the new building offers space for current and future startups and spin-offs by both partners. (Photo: ZEISS) The ZEISS Innovation Hub @ KIT is a milestone in the longstanding partnership between ZEISS and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). In the new building on KIT’s North Campus ZEISS enables high-tech and digital startups to move into the Hub, and is driving its own innovation and new business activities. The Hub has seen a number of successful collaborations and projects since it opened in early 2020.

Skoltech team developed on-chip printed electronic nose

Credit: Skoltech Skoltech researchers and their colleagues from Russia and Germany have designed an on-chip printed electronic nose that serves as a proof of concept for low-cost and sensitive devices to be used in portable electronics and healthcare. The paper was published in the journal ACS Applied Materials Interfaces. The rapidly growing fields of the Internet of Things (IoT) and advanced medical diagnostics require small, cost-effective, low-powered yet reasonably sensitive, and selective gas-analytical systems like so-called electronic noses. These systems can be used for noninvasive diagnostics of human breath, such as diagnosing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with a compact sensor system also designed at Skoltech. Some of these sensors work a lot like actual noses say, yours by using various sensors to detect the complex signal of a gaseous compound.

Researchers create biodegradable flexible displays for skin

Researchers create biodegradable flexible displays for skin Shane McGlaun - Jan 28, 2021, 8:09am CST Researchers from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have produced displays that have been biodegradability certified and checked by independent auditors. The researchers say for the first time, they have demonstrated it’s possible to create sustainable displays primarily based on natural materials with the help of industrially relevant production methods. After use, the displays produce no electronic scrap and can be composted. Researchers believe that in combination with recycling or reuse, their development could help minimize or completely prevent some environmental impact from electronic waste. The displays are based on what’s known as the electrochromic effect of the initial organic material.
