Virtual germs for hygienic hands

Hospital-acquired infections are infections contracted by patients in hospitals. The goal of hand hygiene is to use targeted disinfection to prevent the spread of germs. ViRTUE uses a virtual environment to visualise germs and how they spread. It also shows healthcare professionals when hand disinfection is necessary and when it is superfluous.

Disassembling batteries by means of AI-assisted robotics

In the coming years, the amount of batteries that will have reached the end of their service lives is set to increase exponentially. As batteries are made from critical resources, disassembly and recycling are of great importance. In order to make these scalable, automation is required. The Swiss Battery Technology Center (SBTC) is taking up the challenge.
