MEET THE FORCES DRIVING THE FUTURE OF TECHNOlOGY

A High Performance membrane electrolyte for Solid State Lithium-ion Batteries

The BRIGHT Institute at University of North Carolina Greensboro has developed a high-performance flexible electrolyte technology for next-generation solid-state lithium-ion batteries. The technology is validated and tested in a lithium ion battery coin cell by large scale manufacturing of membranes using roll-to roll process.

Advanced Electromagnetic Wave Absorption (EWA) Materials for Stealth and Defense Technology

Large-scale, flexible, lightweight, porous carbon nanotube(CNT)-recycled plastic hybrid materials are produced continuously using a novel thermal bonding technology. This sustainable and cost-effective technology’s advantages are much energy saving, fast production and very low carbon footprint. Billion-dollar markets of the advanced EWA materials include stealth/defence applications, aerospace shielding, medical instruments etc.

IV cNP8 (Phase 2 Clinical Trial)

IV cNP8 utilizes a peptide (cNP8) engineered to speed healing, minimize scarring, and reduce pain in acute burn wounds. cNP8 can be injected IV at 0.001-0.03mg/kg into the patient at 12-48 hours post-burn. cNP8 can be used to treat burns in prolonged casualty care (PCC) scenarios

Long-lasting, reversible on demand, non-hormonal male contraceptive

Plan A is a hydrogel that blocks sperm in the vas deferens using a simple painless procedure that can be easily reversed in office.

Nanocoining for highly scalable nanopatterning

Smart Material Solutions makes nanotechnology manufacturable at scale, using roll-to-roll techniques like those used to print newspapers to deliver more efficient solar panels, better displays, and striking decorative finishes for luxury products.

HiveLink UAVs

HiveLink UAVs enable multiple drones to work together as a team, sharing information and coordinating their movements for robust decentralized navigation. Unlike the mothership concept, it continues functioning even if one drone fails, similar to the Tsaheylu connection among the Na’vi in Avatar.
