List of projects approved by the MecaTech Cluster since the end of 2006:
The STAGE DES PÔLES is a training project to connect up Wallonia’s innovative enterprises and students in their last year of higher education in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation for an at least 12-week final internship. This immersion in enterprises that are sources of economic activity in Wallonia will enable the students to develop a series of …
SAVE is a project to develop a stand-alone, generic embedded system/onboard device for vision. The availability of embedded systems and onboard devices equipped with various types of sensor, wireless connectivity, networking features, and smart processing abilities opens the gates to a flood of innovative services and the ability to tackle problems that were heretofore impossible …
The SE (French for “Embedded Systems”) project provides innovative training in ES architectures, software tools, and sensors. ESs are found in most of today’s machines and industries, such as transport, industry, telecommunications, construction, health, sustainable development, security applications, etc. The project’s aims are to raise awareness, inform, and train enterprises on how to integrate and …
This project aims to develop a decentralized dual-flow ventilation technology in the ventilation market of residential and small-scale buildings, both in renovation and new construction. This project should fulfill 3 essential objectives: the improvement of acoustic performances at higher flow rates the simultaneous recovery of heat and humidity, in particular, to provide a solution to …
SILICALLOY is a totally chrome-free treatment that gives galvanized surfaces good corrosion resistance and offers excellent adherence for subsequent coatings. The original problem concerned the surface conversion of galvanized steel by chromium VI, which is toxic and carcinogenic. The project has produced the first chromation replacement treatment to combine effectiveness and sustainable development through the …
In recent years, the emerging technologies for concentrated solar power (CSP) plants combine a central receptor located at the top of a 200 metre high tower and molten salt as the heat transfer fluid. The advantage of using molten salt to transfer the generated heat is that it can be stored at high temperatures, which turns …
The aim of the SWS project is to integrate a totally electronic explosive train into a weapon. This integration requires study of the following technological blocks: Secure communication: Today, in the era of the Internet of Things, it is important to be able to communicate with weapons as transparently as possible Electronic activation: The ammunition …
