Our nanotechnology based printing solution is dedicated for use in PV cells and in home electronics (LCD displays). We intend to increase economic attractiveness of the use of the photovoltaics (by its cost reduction), in case of home electronics, energy efficiency will be increased by reduction of energy consumption of displays (by increasing the efficiency of electric energy delivered to the light-emitting layer). It will be possible thanks to our disruptive innovation, that is a new generation of TCF layers for use in displays and thin film photovoltaic cells. eXtra Transparent Printed Lines (XTPL) are a response to the rising market demand for new TCF layers (transparent conductive film). For many years ITO (indium-tin oxide) has been a standard and it was sufficient for the majority of applications. But now ITO is no longer adequate. Our transparent conductive layer having advantageous characteristics in relation to ITO (higher transparency, lower electrical resistance, higher flexibility). Moreover XTPL based on the broadly available resources characterized by lower price volatility relative to indium or lower impact of this volatility on the total cost of the layer. Our preliminary plan assume sale of XTPL printers with a license (licensing) to LCD & PV cells' market leaders. In terms of market saturation of competing technologies, the competitive analysis indicates that the market of alternative to ITO conductive layers is currently at an early stage of development and the level of market saturation is low, which gives scope for the implementation of the outcome of the project.

The BAMBAM project aims at reintegrating the display manufacturing industry in Europe while enabling the era of the low energy µLED for this application. Microprinting of electrical and optical structures and active LEDs pixels (µLED on CMOS) are the solutions implemented in BAMBAM to get rid of the Thin Film Transistor (TFT) arrays controlling LCD and OLED displays; all of them being manufactured in Asia in dedicated expensive, enormous and energy-intensive plants. The new BAMBAM technology relies on the unique active µLEDs on silicon by ALEDIA, where each µLED has its own CMOS driver that can be connected to a low cost substrate by printing of micron scale bussing on any substrate. Following micro-printing by University of Stuttgart of the XTPL's ink, containing Qustom dots color conversion components, on the µLED of Aledia, and their transfer on a low cost substrates by XDC and Xceleprint, the contact ink is micro-printed to connect the active pixel elements to the substrates. The 2 types of display demonstrators, manufactured with this technology, are then adjusted and operated by Barco to achieve the best picture quality at the low energy consumption of the µLED for TV and video walls. The solution is compatible with a high pixel count and low pixel size on flexible substrates. Manufacturing displays in Europe, with a low energy consumption along the life cycle of the product, on low end flexible substrates and low cost, is being prepared by Aledia in its new european manufacturing-line, which is under construction with the help of partners from all over Europe.

The prevalence of overweight among the European population is estimated to be near 50% and the prevalence of obesity around 16%. Monitoring obesity and overweight prevalence is important for assessing interventions aimed at preventing or reducing the burden of obesity and related medical risks and providing the tools for maintaining a healthier lifestyle. UltraSense project introduces the concept of a stretchable multi-sensing platform, as a wearable tool for body composition analysis and overall decentral health monitoring, fostering a sustainable and healthier lifestyle. The platform will comprise smart features, AI signal processing and advanced stretchable materials, enabling the efficient synergy of three compartments of sensors relying on different technologies: A. Ultra-sound compartment: delivering precise information about body composition and tissue thickness B. Bioimpedance compartment: fast and reliable measuring of the percentage of fat, water and muscle C. G-FET biosensor compartment: Biomarker retrieval via sweating at atto-Molar sensitivity in miniaturized footprint The wearable device will be validate in two use cases: 1. The effect of sport on a healthier lifestyle: monitoring the overall health of people who exercise 2. Early detection and continuous monitoring of metabolic syndrome. Ultra-Sense's data will be displayed to the user with consistency and reliability, so that medical advice can be sought. The green and circular material synthesis approaches of the project will reduce the related CO2 emissions by more than 70% from solvent processing. UltraSense will have a huge societal and economic impact: 700k devices will be sold annually already by 2032 for 105M€ of revenues reaching a 10% market share and associated with 20 new jobs. Millions of people will have access to low-cost, easy to use device informing of their body composition helping them improve their lifestyle, reducing obesity and metabolic diseases, and related treatment costs.
