By using a drying technique, factories are able to turn virtually all plant waste into products such as mango flour and mango tea. This frees up dumpsites of hazardous material and has the added effect of generating more business for communities. The team at Coventry has now helped to streamline and automate this drying process by introducing a full end-to-end environmental monitoring system based on wireless sensor networks.
InoCardia Simulated Hearts for Testing Drugs
When drugs are developed to treat a particular disease or for human use purposes they sometimes have side effects that cause damage to the heart. Pioneering work by experts in our Centre for Applied Biological and Exercise Sciences is creating a revolutionary solution to this problem.
The Wholodance project’s innovative use of state-of-the-art technology aims to develop a range of new tools to help dancers investigate movement content in greater depth, to invent and preserve new dance compositions digitally and to widen access to dance.
Protecting the security and freedoms of citizens and of those most in need in society – whether they’re here in the UK or overseas – remains one of the foremost challenges we face. It’s a challenge Coventry University is tackling through research which not only reaches deep into communities across continents, but also explores and combats threats posed by technologies that have become integral to our way of life.
