This technology is an e-health application. The DragONE application is inspired by the global guidelines for the management of asthma, which promote the opportunity to implement a multidimensional assessment of pediatric asthma using innovative systems. DragONE allows to record data on the subjective control of asthma, by using easy-to-understand colors and icons for children (red, yellow or green dragon), to keep track to the patient’s of perceived state.

The invention consists of a method and apparatus for the delivery at low pressure (equal to or less than 10^-7 Torr) of monoatomic fluorine for reaction with surfaces in an ultra-clean environment. Thanks to the low pressure values involved in the proposed method, the risks associated with the use of fluorine are reduced to a minimum.

Portable robotic device for bilateral neuromotor rehabilitation. An appropriate mechanical structure and a series of interchangeable accessories suitably designed allow the execution of various motor gestures of the upper limbs, involving different articulations and muscles. The possibility of being used with both limbs contributes to the recovery of motor coordination and facilitates the mechanism of brain plasticity. Some rotary axes the device is equipped with are motorized and sensorized.

The instrumentation is based on the electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) which is a non-invasive geophysical technology used to obtain information on anomalous bodies possibly present in the subsoil. The theoretical basis lies in the different electrical properties of the lithotypes present in the subsoil.

The proposed technology is based on the concept of Power-Over-Fibre (PoF), which involves the transmission of data and power over an optical fiber. This technology is suitable for applications where traditional copper cabling is impractical or undesirable. This is the case with pantographs, where there is a large potential difference between the catenary and the earth, and therefore any electrical contact must be avoided for safety reasons. Furthermore, pantographs operate in an environment with very high electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Currently, liposomes (artificially synthesised vesicles) are widely used as carriers for a variety of molecules in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. In the clinical applications, for instance, they are employed to encapsulate a range of substances, such as antibiotics, proteins, genetic material, vitamins and anti-cancer drugs.

The present technology deals with jewels based on shape memory alloys and fabricated through additive manufacturing. In ICMATE-Lecco laboratories, several NiTi-based rings have been fabricated through a powder bed fusion technology (selective laser melting technique).

The proposed device is a semi-transparent screen that allows simultaneous viewing of what is beyond the screen and the images projected onto its surface. It consists of two thin glass plates with reflective elements arranged as microlenses, embedded in a resin. The projector's light is reflected by the elements towards the user's eye, while external light passes through the transparent layers without distortion. The transparency and brightness of the screen can be adjusted by modifying the reflective elements.

uManager is a management game designed to foster the development of young students' entrepreneurial skills and abilities. The game offers the opportunity to manage a tourist village, stimulating the skills of decision making and problem-solving in a simulated scenario adhering to the real one. uManager is suitable for use in the classroom or at a distance, in formal and informal contexts.
