El consorcio formado por Fundación Elhuyar, Vicomtech, Tecnalia y los grupos de investigación IXA y Aholab de UPV/EHU ha presentado los resultados del proyecto Ber2Tek, una investigación enfocada a desarrollar tecnologías innovadoras para la industria de las lenguas, formada por los sectores de traducción, creación de contenidos y enseñanza.
For the third year in a row, a life sciences startup took home the top prize at the Wisconsin Governor’s Business Plan Contest.
On Wednesday, Madison-based BluDiagnostics was named the competition’s overall winner and top life sciences company, beating 12 other finalists. All 13 teams presented Tuesday at the Wisconsin Entrepreneurs’ Conference held at Madison’s Alliant Energy Center, an annual two-day business conference hosted by the Wisconsin Technology Council.
Europe's electricity sector needs to open up to the Internet of Things, where objects are connected to each other via the World Wide Web, policymakers told a Berlin industry event on Tuesday (2 June).
“We know the development of electricity production and distribution schemes and our electricity grid, including smart meters and smart grids, will closely correspond to the further development of the Internet," said Peter Altmaier, the chief of staff of German Chancellor Angela Merkel and a former environment minister.
El próximo día 15 de junio se llevará a cabo en el campus de EPS – MU en Mondragón una disertación sobre la temática “Industria 4.0: Más allá del Lean manufacturing. Casos de éxito de empresas de USA.”
La disertación será impartida por Michel Baudin, Ingeniero de Minas por la Universidad de Paris y la Escuela de Minas de Paris, que estudió posteriormente en la Universidad de Tokyo y vivió en Japón como agregado de la embajada francesa para facilitar la introducción de empresas francesas en aquel país.
Talde bat frantziarra da, eta birziklatutako materialarekin, tetrapackarekin, hiri altzariak egiten dituzte. Eta bigarren proiektuaren atzean, berriz, herriko ekintzaile talde bat dago, refabrikazioan (birziklatutako piezak berriro fabrikatzen) aritzen direnak. Bi proiektuen artean 60-65 bat langile beharko lituzkete.
Alors que les traitements actuels contre l'hypertension requièrent une prise de médicaments quotidienne - faute de quoi le patient s'expose à des risques de crise cardiaque ou d'AVC -, un vaccin développé par une équipe de chercheurs de l'université d'Osaka pourrait alléger considérablement les contraintes du traitement en ne requérant qu'une ou deux injections annuelles.
En la pasada edición del 21 de mayo del Wall Street Tech, Keith Blanchard recogió la historia de la barbacoa americana en 12 grandes momentos. El artículo describe cómo ha evolucionado este producto, tan genuinamente americano, de la clásica parrilla de carbón a sofisticados aparatos con control de voz a través de WI-FI.
Hoy en día, cuatro de cada cinco hogares estadounidenses poseen una barbacoa en su jardín. El último hito alcanzado ha sido la barbacoa parlante desarrollada por Lynx de la mano de Copreci.
One of the most significant barriers to deploying sensors, cameras, and communicators is the question of power. The task of fitting a security camera on an external wall or a temperature sensor in an attic immediately runs into the question of how to run a power cable to the device or to arrange for batteries to be replaced on a regular basis.
Then there is the Internet of things, the idea that almost every object could be fitted with a chip that broadcasts data such as its location, whether it is full or empty or whether some other parameter such as temperature or pressure is dangerously high or low.
Great things are expected of the Internet of things but only if engineers can solve one potential show-stopper of a question: how to power these numerous tiny machines.
The share values of Europe’s biggest utilities have plummeted after the energy companies backed outdated business models that rely on coal, a report published today (5 June) has claimed.
The five largest publicly-listed utilities in the EU collectively lost 100 billion euros or more than a third (37%) of their stock market value from 2008 to 2013, the Carbon Tracker Initiative said.
Germany’s E.ON and RWE, France’s GDF Suez, Électricité de France, and Italy’s Enel are named in the analysis, which found heavily coal-reliant utilities fared worse.
This is an incredibly exciting week for the robotics world! On June 5, the DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC) finals kick off in Pomona, California, where some of the world’s best in robotics will come together to compete. This contest marks the conclusion of a three-year competition to create a new class of first responder robots. I’ll be there with a few members of the GE robotics team to present at the DRC Expo.
