Smart Core/shell nanorod arrays for artificial skin (SmartCore)

Start date: Dec 1, 2016, End date: Nov 30, 2021,

The replication of the circle of information coming from the environment, to the skin, to an action mediated by the brain, requires a lot of advances in smart technology and materials development. Embedding sensors in smart architectures that record the stimulus from the environment and transform it into action is the objective of artificial skins. At the moment, different sensors have to be imple ...

Securing Software against Physical Attacks (SOPHIA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Aug 31, 2021,

More than 15 years ago, several seminal publications showed that cryptographic keys can be revealed by analysing the power consumption or by inducing faults to devices like smart cards. The publication of these so-called physical attacks sparked off research on all kinds of attack techniques and countermeasures to secure implementations of cryptographic schemes. However, a system can still be atta ...

Non-invasive decoding of cortical patterns induced by goal directed movement intentions and artificial sensory feedback in humans (Feel your Reach)

Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2021,

In Europe estimated 300.000 people are suffering from a spinal cord injury (SCI) with 11.000 new injuries per year. The consequences of spinal cord injury are tremendous for these individuals. The loss of motor functions especially of the arm and grasping function – 40% are tetraplegics – leads to a life-long dependency on care givers and therefore to a dramatic decrease in quality of life in thes ...
