The compact-GC platform is a MEMS-based analytical module for the purge&trap pre-concentration and (gas)-chromatographic separation of a sample. The two analytical MEMS (pre-concentrator and GC column) are interconnected by means of a MEMS microfluidic manifold. The microfluidic manifold interconnects the analytical MEMS, but it also acts as injector through the integrated micro-valves.
The innovative manipulation device - micro-gripper - allows the gripping by vacuum of micro-components and integrates a novel system to support their release. The manipulation of millimetric and sub-millimetric components can present several issues, often negligible at the macro-scale.
Digital Eye is an innovative, rapid and high-precision intelligent computer vision system for the non-destructive and contactless evaluation of quality and shelf-life of whole or fresh-cut fruit and vegetables. It integrates advanced vision and artificial intelligence technologies to estimate parameters useful to evaluate the quality of fruit and vegetables, during both the harvesting phase and the cold chain.
We propose a portable chemical analysis system capable of identifying chemical substances at trace concentrations (sub-ppm), even in case of a complex matrix of interfering species.

NanoMicroFab makes use of existing CNR facilities of the Institute of Microelectronics and Microsystems, the Institute of Photonics and Nanotechnologies and the Institute for the Structure of Matter and provides: • a complete line of development of devices based on wide band gap semiconductors.
The working principle of VTTJ is extremely simple. Two parts (at least one with tube shape) are screwed one into the other with a mechanical interference that creates a metallic seal. One part presents a cylindrical slot, the other presents a conical ring, whose diameter is slightly larger than the one of the cylindrical slot. When the two parts are screwed together, a plastic deformation occurs in the mechanical interference region.
