Charlotte Vendrely, formerly of Cergy-Pontoise University, has joined the faculty of Grenoble INP-Phelma, UGA. She had just completed a one-year placement in Grenoble while still at her former institution, and will now teach classes in the biomedical engineering program and conduct research at LMGP.A biomimetic adhesive specialist, Vendrely has been coordinating the BioAd project, backed […] >>

CEA-Leti designed a secure circuit board to provide near-sensor data processing. The boards, made up of microcontrollers and hardware security chips, will be tested on CO2 sensors in major cities in 2023.Once the data gathered by the sensors is processed, it will be sent to a blockchain to ensure full traceability, and then saved to […] >>

An innovative magnetic sensor to help align chip-to-wafer bonds for 3D integrated circuits was recently developed and patented by a team of scientists at Irig.When used in optimal conditions, the sensor is accurate to within 50 nm: ten times better than the 500 nm today’s optical solutions can achieve. The improvement could help substantially increase […] >>

RFID systems are inexpensive, but their range is limited, and they are not as accurate as they could be. This makes them unsuitable for tasks like automated inventory tracking with functionalities like people and property location or counting, for example.CEA-Leti, a member of the Carnot Network, developed a miniaturized superdirectional antenna and direction and distance […] >>

Irig’s electronic nose, originally designed for consumer and industrial applications, is now being used in the early detection of diseases.Here’s how it works: some diseases—especially cancer—alter the metabolic production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), some of which are relevant biomarkers.In this research, which focused on two oeso-gastric cancer biomarkers, record detection limits (around one part […] >>
