Description

This edition of the Inside R&D Technology Opportunity Engine (TOE) covers development of novel devices that overcomes the traditional limitations of pressure sensors, design and development of low cost graphene filters for efficient capturing of waste gases from industrial exhaust stream, and the use of genetic engineering for the development of safer polio vaccines. The TOE also features information on the design and synthesis of electro catalysts that can be used in rechargeable batteries and the utilization of hydrolysis process for enhancing the chemical degradation of polyester. The TOE focuses on innovations associated with the use of novel neuro stimulation-based implants for treatment of chronic pain and the latest innovations enabling cost-effective use of bio-controls for minimizing pest attacks and crop diseases. The TOE additionally provides insights on the use of self-healing materials that enhance the durability and shelf life of concrete structures.

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.
