Inclusive and Secure Societies Sample Clauses

Inclusive and Secure Societies. Examples of target products of high social and industrial impact where nanofabrication could lead to major technological advancements and commercial competitiveness related to Inclusive and Secure Societies sector includes the following: • Nanostructured integrated circuits for sensors (e.g., health monitoring systems; miniaturized, portable, and affordable biosensors for food safety authenticity and traceability of molecular biology; integration of sensors in the food value-chain with AI and blockchain technologies; sensors for air quality control; lab-on-chip devices). • Wearable electronics for critical environments; (e.g., sensors embedded in clothes able to detect movements of the body in disaster events, such as earthquakes, floods, or fire). • Unmanned vehicles. • Monitoring systems for cyber security and disaster resilience approaches. • Nano-enabled imaging systems for security applications (e.g., advanced X ray). • Nanoscale 3D printing (e.g., to build materials for atomically precise sensors to the semiconductor and consumer electronic sectors). • Nano-coatings to create and/or improve the material´s functionalities (e.g., antibacterial nano-coatings, anti-corrosion applications nanocoating with superconducting properties). • Smart devices for impair or elderly population (e.g., sensors for smart home devices, motion sensors, wearable devices to control heart rate, respiration, restlessness). The information and communication technology industry is one of the most relevant sectors applying nano-enabled systems and technologies nowadays. Their applications could have a huge impact in the inclusive and secure societies sector, leading to faster, smaller, and more portable systems that can manage and store larger and larger amounts of information. Transistors, magnetic random-access memory (MRAM), ultra-high-definition displays using quantum dots and flexible electronics illustrate some of the nano-applications in the ICT industries.

Inclusive and Secure Societies. The world is currently entering a new phase of information and communications technology (ICT) development that is expected to drive economic growth and sustainable development for the coming decades. In the future, people, systems, and objects will interact seamlessly with each other in Internet of Things (IoT) scenarios. Nanotechnology is expected to be a key enabling technology (KET) to sustain the development of future smart sensing systems and/or Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) that will jointly integrate sensing, computation, communication, and energy management functions. In the short term, nanotechnology can enable wireless sensor nodes with multi-parameter sensing and long- term autonomy. Sensor networks that exploit nanotechnology are strategically beneficial to security because they generate a dynamic perception of the environment with very early detection of threats 44 TC 113 – Nanotechnology for electrotechnical products and systems (xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xx/dyn/www/f?p=103:7:10605715880519::::FSP_ORG_ID,FSP_LANG_ID:1315,25) 45 xxxxx://xxxxxxxxxxxx.x0.xxx.xxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx/Index.html 46 xxxxx://xxx.x0000xxxxxxxx.xx/ 47 xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/ by analysing big data available in real time. For security, this technology is deployable at different levels, including from humans (body area networks) to buildings, cities, and large environments. Additionally, wearable embodiments of WSNs can provide battlefield evaluations of the medical status of soldiers by evaluating in-situ the severity of injuries and preparing the most effective treatment. Current security topics can be grouped as nano-forensic science (reactive smart materials, micro-chip technology, nanomanipulators, nanoimaging tools); secure/smart cities, smart healthcare, military interests (more for US landscape as EU does not fund military research, electronics; sensors; energy and power, including photovoltaics and solar cells; structural materials; coatings; multi-functional materials; devices; energetics, such as explosives and propellants; detectors; decontamination; and military medicine, including improved delivery of vaccines).
