Mobiles to Enhance Live Sports Experience

A case study produced by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). Imagine watching a football match, seeing a foul and being able to immediately swap comments with friends who saw the same incident from the other side of the stadium. By connecting mobile phones with each other without sending...

New Cement Set to Reduce Carbon Emissions

A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) looking at a new, carbon-negative cement which is heading for manufacturing reality thanks to Novacem, a spin-out company from Imperial College London. EPSRC funding has played a key role in developing both the cement itself and the...

New Designs for 21st Century Healthcare

A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) archives which looks at how innovative equipment and vehicle design, supported by EPSRC, could help treat more 999 patients on the spot. Healthcare professionals, called emergency care practitioners, receive special training to assess...

New Engine Slashes CO2 Emissions

A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) archives which looks at a new car engine, developed with EPSRC support, which boosts fuel efficiency and delivers a 15% cut in carbon emissions. The technology, that sprays fuel straight into the cylinders without needing to mix it...
