VeristicPrint biometric technologyThe CSIR’s VeristicPrint biometric technology is an end-to-end biometric system that uses digital imaging devices such as smart phones, webcams and digital cameras to create fingerprint scanners. The technology provides institutions in need of access security, with an affordable, locally sourced, contactless fingerprint solution that can be integrated with existing biometric systems. The solution is relevant for use in a world that is pursuing social distancing and avoidance of activities and technologies that have a high likelihood of spreading germs and viruses, as became necessary during the Covid-19 pandemic. The biometric technology is underpinned by a unique and proprietary modular technology base, that confers compelling state of the art functionality. VeristicPrint is able to effortlessly accept colour photographs of fingerprints, extract the relevant patterns, encrypt and accurately authenticate to enrolled databases in a highly secure manner, amongst other functionalities. The system’s ability to be integrated to existing biometric systems sets it apart from similar technologies and enables the CSIR to support many organisations with the capability. VeristicPrint technology has proven to be compatible with existing systems. This was achieved by normalising the resolutions of all fingerprints captured by digital devices to ensure that different devices are compatible with each other, including existing commercial touch-based systems. The introduction of an affordable biometric solution that does not rely on specialised hardware means that small, medium and micro enterprises (SMMEs) and non-governmental organisations have access to contactless biometrics at affordable prices, using devices such as smartphones. The CSIR has partnered with a local SMMEs that specialises in finance technology, which became the first user of the technology under the terms of a pilot licence. VeristicPrint technology is available for non-exclusive licensing with the CSIR.

Vibration-Assisted ball burnishingA solution for surface enhancement through acoustoplasticity. An innovative system to modify the surface integrity, i.e. surface texture and roughness, hardness and residual stress, of previously milled workpieces has been developed. The system can be easily integrated in real manufacturing environments, but should be tested with that aim. Partners to further develop the system and/or to establish commercial agreements along with technical cooperation are sought.

Vibration-Assisted ball burnishingThe manufacturing industry demands effective finishing processes to which workpieces could be subjected to enhance their future in-service performance. This need is especially required for innovative materials, as they usually show a detrimental surface integrity state due to their low machinability. In the transportation industry, the manufacturing of components such as turbine blades, requires the application of local processes that could reinforce critical areas of the workpiece that are subjected to demanding regimes, such as fatigue. Improving the surface and near-surface texture, roughness, residual stress and hardness is a mean to prevent crack growth and enhance the behaviour of these components. In this context, the vibration-assisted ball burnishing tool has proved positive results in laboratory applications, and is ready for a leap forward into the industry.

ViTAM, Videoconferencing multiplatform solutionsThe main innovation aspects in ViTAM are the following: - Simple and usable user interfaces. User interfaces are asymmetrical, differing from the patient and the professional. While the patient’s interface is extremely simplified, the professional’s side keeps a slightly higher complexity to keep control of the videoconferencing. This approach facilitates at most the use of technology by non-experts. - Specially designed for medical and social consultations. It implements two innovative operation modes not available in the market: the online consultation with waiting room and the videoconferencing call centre (coming soon). - Multiplatform and Multidevice. It is multiplatform (Windows, Mac, Android, iOS) and multidevice (PC, laptop, tablet, smartphone). - Easy integration. It can be easily integrated in or with other applications, as well as connect with external services (e.g. electronic health record, calendar). - Customisation. It can be customised not only in terms of graphical user interface but also in the workflow so as to implement new personalised videoconferencing scenarios. - Single and multiple videoconferencing. It offers 1 to 1 videoconferencing and multivideoconferencing in a single and unified interface. - Privacy. It ensures privacy protection by providing communications and data protection and enables its deployment on certified medical data management servers. - Sensors. It can be implemented as a background application running on the device, which can receive incoming connection requests, which can be useful when linked to sensors data alarms (e.g. blood pressure).Asgard Consulting posted this:

Vulcanaer: Air Hybrid for Diesel EnginesVulcanaer is a novel regenerative hybrid engine system for diesel transport systems, particularly urban busses and delivery trucks. It converts a vehicle engine into an air pump during decelerations. It harvests the braking energy and stores it as compressed air for subsequent use to restart the engine in stop/start operation, saving battery and starter motor life. It also saves fuel as the compressed air also assists the normal engine-driven air compressor. Furthermore it can enhance the turbo thus reducing black smoke during acceleration from stationary

Wastewater treatment by electrocoagulation (EC)The Department of Physical Chemistry (Applied Electrochemical Group LEQA) at the University of Alicante has a high experience and know-how to develop and carry out the removal of pollutants in wastewaters by electrocoagulation (EC). A pilot plant fully equipped with the necessary infrastructure and with ability to treat 100L/h of wastes is available in order to develop the pre-industrial phase and scaling-up of these processes. This technology could be of interest to several industries: chemical, tannery, textile, etc. Innovative aspects of the tecnology: - The EC cell is controlled electrically and have no moving parts, thus requires less maintenance - The EC process avoids uses of chemicals and so there is no problem of neutralizing excess chemicals. - EC produces effluent with less total dissolved solids (TDS) content as compared with chemical treatments.

Water and Energy saving faucetsIn order to reduce the waiting time for hot water, we usually install hot water circulation loops that waste a lot of energy. The waiting time for hot water is uncomfortable and makes you waste +/- 10 gal of water/day/house to the sink. To overcome the problem and to avoid user's complaints, most plumbers adds a hot water recirculation loop that keep the water in the hot water supply pipe hot. This type of hot water circulating loop provides nearly instant hot water at the fixtures but wastes a tremendous amount of energy (pump consumption plus pipes heat dissipation). Measured energy wasted in the hot water recirculation loop in a 2-story, 3,200 sf. house: - Continuous recirculation: 21 KWh/day corresponding to 875 W continuously, 1600 € /year. - With timer and aquastat: over 10 KWh/day, corresponding to 410 W continuously, 800 €/year. - Demand control (manual actuation, then wait 1 min.): 2 KWh/day, corresponding to 80W continuously, 160€/year Up to 20% of the house energy consumption is wasted only to reduce the waiting time for hot water. The Water & Energy saving faucet provide access to the hot water within seconds, as fast as if you had a hot water recycling loop installed, but it do not wastes a single drop of water and it do not wastes any energy at all.
