Transparent Electronics
In the MULTIFLEXIOXIDES project scientist have developed new cost-efficient, long lasting, light, flexible and transparent devices which can display information directly on the windscreen.
Nano Powered Cars
In the last five years 25 European research institutions have joint forces to develop a rechargeable battery which uses lithium nano-particles.
Tune Up Your Electric Car!
The research team has redesigned the batteries which are now also able to store energy during braking and releasing it quickly during acceleration.
Hydrogen: The Green Fuel Of The Future
Together the engineers worked on the fuel cell propulsion system by upgrading the air supply, integrating a humidification system, redesigning the hydrogen supply line and developing a hydrogen sensor concept.
Sponge Metal Ships
Lighter ships mean more freight, less trips and therefore less fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Veikko Hintsanen, a captain from Finland, and the researchers from Fraunhofer have designed a “Bioship” based on the new material.
A new material to cut the weight of ships by 30%
The new material is lighter than water and has a high stiffness . Within seconds a cube made from aluminum starts to inflate into the shape of a sponge under the impact of heat.
Automated Truck Inspection
German highway engineers have set up a new system of cameras and sensors in the ground – to determine weight, speed and even state of the wheels and brakes.
The Plastic Trailer: a green revolution in transport
The new composite material contains double the volume of glass fibres compared to common composites and thus is extremely stabile.
Recycled Streets
Extremely hot or cold periods are a serious problem to road surfaces: many cracks, potholes and car ruts are the consequence.
The Super Light Car
The cars today - even in their basic configuration - are equipped with many features: air conditioning, electric windows and airbags for example. The price for improved comfort and safety on board has been an increase in weight.
The Connected Traveller
The idea is that all vehicles and road infrastructure such as road signs, parking spaces or tolling stations will communicate with each other to create and share new kind of travel and traffic information.
