Living Plant Installations is an integrally unique way of interacting with the vegetal environment. By converting plants into biological switches, we can activate lights, sounds, music, videos, and a myriad of other devices by touching plant leaves. Applications in smart cities, architecture, domotics, experiential marketing, events, and city space

This technology offers a novel model-predictive distributed control method and a flexible and cost effective IoT implementation architecture for energy saving in building HVAC systems. It is scalable and real-time optimally responsive to changes in a large building that has more than 500 zones via a patented token-based HVAC scheduling strategy. Th

Typically, buildings with centralised air-conditioning have one or more air filters in each of the air handling units. While air filtration plays an important role to improve indoor air quality, it requires a significant amount of energy consumption to achieve high filtration efficiency, which is the extent to which filters remove airborne particle

Photocatalytic effect is a crucial element for achieving self-cleaning surfaces in an indoor environment. Self-cleaning surfaces minimise the need for labour intensive and costly cleaning and maintenance services. However, commercially available self-cleaning solutions are typically in the form of coatings that wear off with time and require re-app

In recent years, rapid development of state-of-the-art equipment in offices, hospitals, shopping malls, food-courts, residential apartments, modern buildings, transportations and other manufacturing industries lead to serious noise pollution, which has significant adverse effects on the personal health, environment, productivity, reliability of ele

Existing electric air purifiers applied to closed, indoor environments have to be closely monitored and controlled due to potential hazardous ozone emissions. Alternatively filter based purifiers have an issue of power losses owing to the raised pressure drop of filters as well as a difficulty in filter management. Existing filter-based air purifie

Our society is now becoming increasingly automated where autonomous machines, artificial intelligence, and robots will perform complex tasks. For this vision to be realized, machines must have cognitive abilities including basic five sense of human, e.g., sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. However, most development of machine perception thus

Black Périgord Truffle's Mating & Fruiting matrix are notoriously elusive to replicate in the lab. There has been no successful alternative truffle cultivation method other than the current tedious and resource consuming commercial farms, plant saplings are inoculated with truffle meiospores and planted over hectares of land. This take at least 7 y

Data analytics platform that combines information from different technological modules such as geo-referenced scouting and spraying apps, soil sensors, and weather stations. Once the information is processed and analysed, it's delivered back to the farmers via email, SMS, and access through our business intelligence platform. This information is us

Nanoplasmonic Sensing (NPS) technology is a versatile and extremely surface sensitive sensing technology for realtime studies of atomic/molecular changes of less than one nanometer. There is a combination of several inherent strengths with NPS technology that makes it a strong candidate for different sensing applications. The technology is today us
