2024: Odissea nell’Olfatto, by Neuroscent

Faire: Rome

Maker: Giulio Cesare Passali

Home: Italy

NEUROSCENT is a project for the study of objective olfactory capacity and gustatory evaluation using Machine Learning classification of EEG measurements. In practice, EEG signals acquired through a wearable electroencephalographic device are wirelessly transmitted for real-time analysis during sensory stimulation. NEUROSCENT provides real-time quantifiable assessments of olfactory-gustatory capabilities and brain waves evoked during such stimulation, representing valuable support in healthcare, the food industry, and environmental monitoring.

Low-cost prosthetic devices

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma

Home: Italy

Robotic orthoses and prosthesis represent a valid technological solution to mitigate hand pathologies or amputations; however, these technologies are still largely underused, mainly due for their costs and complexity. The 3D-AID project aims at overcoming these issues by developing low-cost upper limb prosthesis and orthoses customized on the specific needs of patients by means of advanced techniques of additive manufacturing. The project, funded by INAIL, is led by Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma in collaboration with the Centro Protesi INAIL.

Arduino-based organ perfusion system.

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università degli Studi di Genova

Home: Italy

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.
