Fixposition (ETH Zurich), electronics, software, navigation
The combination of cutting-edge computer vision techniques and leading satellite navigation know-how allows Fixposition to develop products that provide ultra-reliable high-precision navigation. The positioning system provides centimeter-level accuracy and stays operational in challenging environments, such as urban-canyons, forests or other places with limited satellite signal reception. This facilitates a wide variety of tasks such as autonomous industrial drone inspection, high-precision control of autonomous machines and guidance of self-driving cars.
UniSieve (ETH Zurich) cleantech, petrochemical Industry
Over 10% of total energy consumption worldwide is due to separation processes. To target this issue, UniSieve has developed a patent-pending membrane technology, which allows cost-and energy-efficient separation of gases. The technology is based on an inventive way of integrating metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into polymeric membranes. The UniSieve technology has the potential to create various separation solutions for small-scale home applications (B2C), and also large-scale industrial processes (B2B). Currently, the focus is set on building modules for the purification of hydrogen (energy, cleantech industry) and propylene (oil&gas, chemical industry).
