Patented technology offers a natural solution (NATURE-BASED SOLUTION) that protects the coasts from erosion due to climate change, It enhances marine life and contributes to charcoal.
Another business participating in the final phase of the competition is ‘Smart Active Antenna for Mobile Infrastructure’ Argosemiaimed at simplifying the complex 5G Massive Mimo technology unit (RU) technology. With the implementation of active antenna, a board is used only instead of five or six required by existing solutions, while a variant will carry a clever integrated radio frequency circuit (RFIC), which with the help of artificial intelligence It idealizes the behavior of analog transmission circuits. Thus, better quality communications will be developed at affordable costs and with a smaller energy footprint.
Continuing, focusing on the technologies of explanatory artificial intelligence To improve road safety and the efficiency of drivers/passengers (semi)-autonomous vehicles, “Avisense.ai” Provides affordable XR solutions that save energy, while providing real -time information, precise location detection and Increased credibility in autonomous transport.
The same inventive is the ADR4all. In particular, To meet consumer needs facing difficulty of accessing mechanisms online Complaints resolve, the solution was highlighted as a solution ODR ecosystema modern digital complaints resolution environment, including mobile application ”Adr4All« .
