The agriculture and livestock sector has new data-driven and artificial intelligence-based digital solutions developed as part of the high-impact projects run by the Centre of Innovation for Data tech and Artificial Intelligence (CIDAI) to optimise management in the industry by harnessing tools to spot patterns in the use of antibiotics on livestock farms and [...]
The European HYPIEND project, coordinated by the Eurecat technology centre, is studying the impact of endocrine disruptors on the hormonal system during pregnancy, the first 18 months of a baby’s life and during pre-puberty to gain the understanding needed to devise strategies to minimise exposure to these chemicals and minimize their adverse effects on [...]
This week at LOPEC, the preeminent event in printed electronics held in Munich, the Eurecat technology centre is showcasing innovative solutions for medical care, prevention and health monitoring, overseeing water quality and detecting pollutants, and for the new generation of cars with a prototype which has won the best demonstrator award presented at the [...]
The Mobile World Congress is “once more the international meeting point for the digital industry where artificial intelligence has taken centre stage with applications across all sectors” and with a “key role for 4YFN, which on its tenth anniversary has cemented its position as the preeminent venue for the start-up ecosystem,” says Miquel Rey, [...]
The European VitiGEOSS project has developed an innovative smart platform featuring digital tools for precision viticulture which drive more sustainable vineyard management and the crop’s resilience to climate change which the Eurecat technology centre is showcasing at Mobile World Congress 2024 in Barcelona. “We have developed a single platform which farmers and other service [...]
The Eurecat technology centre is this week showcasing at the Mobile World Congress an assistive robot which helps people at home with a range of daily tasks and can hold a conversation and offer personalised care to users based on monitoring their state of health or mood, furnishing for example instructions for an exercise [...]
The Eurecat technology centre is presenting this week at the Mobile World Congress a headband developed together with Time is Brain to record brain activity in real time during an acute stroke and predict complications early on. The innovation is part of the BraiN20® portable medical device which provides the patient with “quicker access [...]
Cybersecurity-related technologies and virtual reality tied to the user experience, smart cities and digital twins will be prominent at the forthcoming Mobile World Congress, where artificial intelligence will take centre stage with applications in various sectors, especially in health and nutrition, sustainability and industry. Eugenia Fuenmayor, scientific director of Eurecat’s Digital Area, says that [...]
The PHASAL project is fashioning new biodegradable bioplastics from agri-food waste for medical applications such as transdermal patches and suture kits which will minimise their environmental impact. Specifically, it is to develop new grades of biodegradable plastics (PHA) obtained from the recovery of organic waste, thus affording them advanced processability and biocompatibility properties, which [...]
Artificial intelligence and data technologies have huge potential to help transform the educational model and enhance the teaching and learning process while also ensuring that Catalan is more widely used online and in everyday life in society. This is the conclusion of the ‘White Paper on Artificial Intelligence applied to Education and to the [...]
