Surgeries of complex bone fractures are challenging and often fail. ETH Pioneer Fellow Thomas Zumbrunn uses sophisticated 3D simulations and augmented reality to assist the doctors.
Additive manufacturing for more sustainability
Entrepreneurship
Car or aeroplane components made of carbon fibre composites are much lighter than metal parts. If such components were digitally and cost-effectively mass-produced, the CO2 emissions of an aircraft could be reduced by several tons. To this end, ETH spin-off 9T Labs provides solutions.
Novel membrane saves energy
Entrepreneurship
The purification of gases consumes a lot of energy, both for the production of plastics and for bottled oxygen. ETH spin-off Unisieve pursues a new approach to filtering.
Timely corrosion risk monitoring
Entrepreneurship
Reinforced concrete is the most widely used building material in the world, particularly for large infrastructures. Over 50% of these structures in Europe and the US are past their 50-year service life span. They suffer from corrosion in the steel-reinforcement and bear an unknown repair urgency. The DuraMon solution sheds light on this dark area.
Understanding the future of mobility
Videos
Is electric mobility the future? Will our vehicles soon drive autonomously? Numerous disruptive scenarios are conceivable, which means that companies operating in the mobility sector are facing major challenges. The ETH MAS (Master of Advanced Studies) "Mobility of the Future" provides answers to these questions.
