The e-BRAINS project
Best-Reliable Intelligent Ambient Nanosensor Systems – e-BRAINS is about the creation of a new generation of sensors which leverage integration of heterogeneous technologies, high-performance nano sensor devices, miniaturization, smart wireless communication and best-reliability.Read more

Applications
Bringing together heterogeneous integration and nano sensor device technologies will catalyse a new level of performance. e-BRAINS investigates how these technologies can be successfully combined using the example of selected applications with considerable market potential. The applications will give a measure and validate the performance increase available due to heterogeneous integration. Substantial reduction in size, reduction in manufacturing cost, and increased sensitivity are typically targeted for the applications:- Smart Biosensor Grain (Magna Diagnostics)
- Infrared Imager (Sensonor, SINTEF)
- Active medical implants (Sorin, 3D Plus)
- Smart Gas Sensors (Siemens)
- Ultrasound imaging probes for volumetric (3D real time) scanning (Vermon)
Consortium
The consortium brings together twenty partners from nine European countries (six SMEs, nine partners from public research and five large industrial partners).Read more ...
