Description

This edition of the Inside R&D Technology Opportunity Engine (TOE) features information on the use of electronic gloves that convert sign language into speech and the selection of highly selective membranes for the removal of carbon dioxide from industrial processes. The TOE also features the use of brain-computer interface for evaluating spinal cord injuries. The TOE focuses on innovations associated with the use of invasive devices for killing mucus producing cells and also provides intelligence on the use of titanium-based cathode material for the production of potassium-ion batteries, use of artificial intelligence in healthcare, and the use of phase engineered hetero-structures for enhancing superconductivity. The TOE additionally provides insights on the latest developments in the use of nano-catalysts for degradation of dyes, the use of machine learning for private data sharing, and the latest trends in cost-effective solar thermal distillation for enhancing storage integrated concentrated solar power.

Inside R&D Technology Opportunity Engine covers global innovations that are in research and development in virtually all technology areas. We provide intelligence and insights on innovations spanning a wide variety of industry areas, including automation, electronics, sensors, information and communication technologies, manufacturing, health, wellness, medical devices, pharma, biotechnology, materials, coatings, renewable fuels, automotive, power systems, sustainable energy solutions and innovations that contribute to a cleaner and greener environment.
