By applying a brain implant with many (>1000) electrodes, it is possible to regenerate a rudimental vision. Each stimulated electrode will give the percept of a dot of light. By converting camera patterns into stimulation patterns, at a sufficient speed, it is possible to have real-time vision, to give back autonomy to blind people. The project aims to create a versatile system design integrating input devices, hardware, user interfaces, and AI-based signal processing for visual stimulation.

Thio Pharma, a pharma company, is seeking help to develop a sustainable prototype for medication packaging. The current packaging is make of PVC and aluminium. We are looking for ways to minimize waste and increase sustainability while keeping costs reasonable. The project is part of a larger research program at TU Delft and aims to create a personalized medication system that is more environmentally friendly. The project offers students access to experts and present technologies and provides opportunities to learn about innovative pharmaceuticals and packaging design.

Develop a portable, cost-effective microfluidic device for measuring DNA length and detecting fluorescent tags to enable rapid bacterial infection detection and identification. This breakthrough project aims to democratize advanced diagnostic technology, improve global healthcare access, and combat antibiotic resistance by reducing the reliance on antibiotics.

By the development of an improved vacuum extractor, LAYCO aims to increase access to vacuum extraction in Low- & Middle-Income Countries, where prolonged or obstructed labour poses significant risks. In this project, you will help investigate the feasibility of producing the extractor from recycled plastic in collaboration with EcoBrixs in Uganda.
