Advanced UV for Life

22. July 2013/in Medical technology, MOEMS, Silicon Detectors, UV

“Advanced UV for Life” – this is the name of the consortium that will open up innovative applications of UV light in medicine, water treatment, production technology and sensor technology in the future. The interdisciplinary consortium of 8 research institutions and 14 industrial companies is one of the 10 winners in the Twenty20 competition, which is part of the high-tech strategy of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). This was announced by Federal Minister Johanna Wanka at a press conference

Ear biofeedback system – one step closer to personalized medicine

30. May 2013/in Medical technology, MOEMS

Vital parameter measurement and biofeedback therapy – combined in one ear device. The basis of the ear biofeedback system is the analysis of vital parameters measured at the ear

Multisensor technology supports diagnosis and therapy of normal-tension glaucoma

15. April 2013/in Medical technology, MOEMS

The time-synchronous measurement of ECG and PPG should enable the screening of vascular dysregulation with a good sensitivity and, above all, a very high specificity. By using modern low-power electronics and resource-saving technologies of microsystems engineering, a solution was created that enables mobile monitoring of vital parameters, e.g. in outpatient use

Sensitive light hunter

3. April 2013/in Analytics, MOEMS, Photonic

Together with the company UST Umweltsensortechnik GmbH from Geschwenda, the CiS Research Institute for Microsensors and Photovoltaics has developed a modular chemiluminescence detector (CLD) for nitrogen oxides, especially NO2

NOBIS sensor system for edge detection

2. April 2013/in MOEMS

NOBIS is a completely new concept in sensor technology. The integrated programming platform allows customer-specific solutions to be implemented as quickly as possible. The freely programmable sensor software enables a wide range of applications

Optoelectronic and micromechanical sensors for medical technology and bioanalytics

8. November 2012/in Events, Medical technology, MEMS, MOEMS

At the IVAM product market “High-tech for Medical Devices” the CiS Research Institute shows new results from research and development in the field of medical microsystems technology

Art and Sensors – Via Emotions to the Product

25. October 2012/in Medical technology, MOEMS

Students at the Bauhaus University in Weimar were looking at alternative ways of marketing the results of high-tech research. The collaboration between the university and the CiS Research Institute for Microsensors and Photovoltaics came about as part of an interdisciplinary “prototype seminar” held by the Chair of Media Management. The aim of the seminar was to find new, generally comprehensible and attractive ways of accessing the application possibilities of high-tech solutions in need of explanation

Better vision with intelligent implant – micro-optical accommodation system as an alternative to intraocular lenses

15. October 2012/in Medical technology, MOEMS

The decreasing accommodation ability of the eye with increasing age (presbyopia) can be compensated by visual aids. In case of additional lens opacity (cataract), the removal of the lens and the implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL) are necessary. The new approach to solve this problem pursued in the BMBF-funded project “Akkosys” is a smart microsystem that is implanted in the capsular bag of the eye instead of an intraocular lens

Optoflutronics – Microfluidic Fluorescence and Absorption Sensor

4. October 2012/in MOEMS

CiS Research Institute leads the development of a micro-fluorescence sensor. In a multi-channel sensor the optical excitation with different light wavelengths and the measurement of transmission and fluorescence signals take place

Non-contact, interferometric distance measurement

20. May 2012/in MOEMS, Packaging

Technologies from microsystems engineering and microoptics form the basis for the successful miniaturization of a new, interferometric distance measurement system from TETRA GmbH in Ilmenau. The core component, consisting of a Michelsen laser interferometer and an optical silicon detector, was developed by the mechatronics specialist together with the Microoptical Systems Application Center at CiS Research Institute
