Open Urban Sustainability Hubs (OPUSH)

Faire: Delft

Maker: OPUSH project

Home: ZuidHolland, Nederland

OPUSH empowers local communities by opening access to knowledge and science through local libraries. The project uses “citizen science” a research method to engage citizens (anyone who is interested, regardless of their age, education level, gender, etc.) in research as equal partners. While the project takes place in four cities – Barcelona, Delft, Tallinn and Vienna – our stand will focus on project ideas what will be implemented in Delft. Tell us what you think about our projects on Energy Transition, Prenatal Health and Biodiversity in your neighborhood in Delft! Ask questions, share ideas, help us shape our project and sign up to be one of our citizen researchers!

Le Strutture Tremano

Faire: Rome

Maker: Gruppo MCGM

 

The system consists of a base and 24 shapes. On the base, there are two vibrating plates, one for each child, who takes turns placing a shape corresponding to the color shown on the central button. The goal for the child is to build a structure as tall as possible, trying to keep it steady after the vibrations, level by level. The first player whose construction falls, loses. There are 6 shapes provided for each color, corresponding to randomly changing LEDs, making the game dynamic with varying levels of difficulty dictated by the shapes themselves. It is simple, affordable, and intuitive.

POWAR STEAM

Faire: Lisbon

Maker: POWAR STEAM

Home: Cataluña, Espanha

The world we live in is full of inequality, and social, cultural and gender differences that can be mitigated through education. Therefore we seek solutions to improve the quality of education in urban and rural areas through non-colonializing planet-centred technologies, for a more sustainable future. We want to train citizens to become change-makers, that's why we design problem-based methodologies and objects to promote innovation and creativity in students while fostering other skills for the 21st century. We investigate the role of education as a tool to strengthen societies towards a more sustainable world, in which innovation and creativity are skills that help communities become more resilient in different areas such as climate change and food security.

Arduino-based organ perfusion system.

Faire: Rome

Maker: IRCCS Policlinico S.Martino

 

Laboratory equipment could be expensive and their cost can be unsustainable for scientists with limited financial resources. In order to overcome these limits we build a scalable organ perfusion system for research purposes based on Arduino boards, pressure transducers, peristaltic pumps, a thermostatic unit, and a micro-oxygenator. Our system is designed to measure the mechanical properties of rat liver, however, it can be rearranged to perform other research on subnormothermic or hypothermic ex-vivo perfusion of liver and kidney or to realize peritoneal or isolated limb perfusion models.
