RELATED PROJECTS
- The Construction Research and Innovation Group (GRIC) at the UPC is driving the N2B2 project to develop new technology so that heating and air conditioning can be turned on and off via predictive control.
- Researchers at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), in collaboration with the MINOS group of the URV, are participating in a project on the reliable, high-performance and low-cost production of ammonia sensors for livestock farming.
- An international consortium of universities, hospitals and companies, led by the Centre for Sensors, Instruments and Systems Development (CD6) at the UPC, is developing new technologies based on light and artificial intelligence to improve the diagnosis of various diseases.
- The protection of infrastructures is a commercial and environmental challenge as it enables the useful life of these elements to be lengthened and avoids the early generation of residues.
