Atmospheric Aging Impacts on Particles for Cirrus Cloud Seeding
Cirrus cloud thinning is a potential framework to mitigate climate warming via short lived climate forcers. Cirrus clouds forming at high altitudes in the troposphere composed only of ice crystals, produce a net warming effect on the Earth's climate because they are optically thin and their ability to shield ...

Neuromorphic Technology for Embodied AI
Automation in dynamic environments - in agriculture, healthcare, or small-scale production - is limited. Rigid industrial robotsfail in these complex environments. The key towards more flexible, adaptive, and safe automation is better perception. Robotsneed to assess their environment visually fast enough to track ...

Interoperable solutions to streamline PED evolution and cross-sectoral integration
The PEDvolution solutions will design, process, optimise and strengthen the PEDs genotype- and/or phenotype. Whereas the genotype of a PED is its set of genetic material, built through a unique combination of Social-Technology-Interoperability-Market related aspects. The PED’s phenotype is the set of observable ...
