Two Eindhoven University of Technology researchers have been awarded NWO Impact Explorer grants<\/a>, paving the way for innovative advancements in fiber-sensing technology and mathematical models for bodyguard security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Affordable fibre sensing technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Andrea Fiore’s FibChem project is set to revolutionize the field of chemical and biochemical production. By developing affordable fibre sensing technology, Fiore aims to enhance the efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability of production processes of reactors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This innovation stems from a new method for reading optical signals from fibre sensors using simple integrated chips. The potential for cheaper optical sensing systems could transform how industries approach chemical production, offering a more cost-effective and efficient solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grant will support the development of a prototype for this affordable fibre-sensing technology. In particular, the FibChem team aim to explore potential markets for these sensors focusing at the moment on miniaturized (bio)chemical reactors, compact devices designed for precise chemical reactions with advanced sensing technology like this one.<\/p>\n\n\n

Enhancing individual security<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Triggered partly by the tragic assassination of Peter R. de Vries, Dutch investigative and crime reporter, Loe Schlicher’s project aims to improve individual security in the Netherlands through the application of mathematical models. By collaborating with the Dutch National Police, Schlicher seeks to optimise the deployment of bodyguards, enhancing protection measures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An innovative aspect of Schlicher’s project is the use of a \u2018serious board game\u2019 to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed mathematical models. This approach aims to engage the police and policymakers in a more interactive and comprehensible manner. By simulating real-world scenarios, gaming can illustrate how the models can improve system monitoring and security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

NWO Impact Explorer grant details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The NWO Impact Explorer grant provides a total funding of \u20ac1,000,000, with individual grants ranging from \u20ac20,000 to \u20ac30,000. While currently applications aren\u2019t open, these grants are designed to validate the societal impact of curiosity-driven research. The initiative aims to explore routes for societal impact from research. By providing financial support, the grant enables researchers to bridge the gap between theory and practice, ensuring that their work can have a meaningful impact on society.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
