Projects

CRDSensing

CRD Sensing technology is an innovative optical configuration capable of outputting and reading signals from a network of sensors positioned at remote locations for sensing physical, chemical or biological parameters. By being simple, compact and presenting low signal loss, CRD Sensing enables the development of new products and services in areas such as telecommunications (fiber optics), agriculture, marine applications and environmental resources monitoring, especially in remote locations (e.g., deep water). Thus, this technology has 4 main application industries aligned with 4 priority themes and respective topics of the National Strategy for Intelligent Specialization (ENEI), as well as with 3 priority areas and respective topic the North Intelligent Specialization Strategy (RIS3). Due to its characteristics, CRD Sensing is particularly well positioned to be marketed as an add-on or to natively integrate in Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) devices, currently in use by fiber optic network service providers. That is a worldwide market that grew 13.8% in the period 2013-2018 and in which the main agents make use of patents to protect their technologies. This project aims at funding an international patent application (PCT) and its respective national validations in the major world markets in order to enhance the economic return and impact on society of the CRD Sensing technology.

BeatStress

The new Beat Stress technology comprises an innovative method and device capable of drastically reducing the time of stress detection using the heart beat identified in ECGs. The required parameters are collected and identified in just one or a few heartbeats to indicate if an individual is showing signs of stress, reducing the time of identification and volume of data collected and processed and making it ideal for use in an online context. Wearable devices that collect physiological data has proven popular in recent years and different researches show a growing demand for stress level measurement. Findings related to classification activities of these types of events would bring a wide and beneficial range of applications in the field of public health. The main advantages of Beat Stress are the speed of processing, the computational capacity that allows their online use, the integrity, ease of use and associated low cost. Currently the stress measurement is made mainly by the Heart Rate Variability (W-HRV) method, which presents disadvantages such as the need for a large time interval for measurement and great computational complexity due to the high volume of data for analysis. To circumvent these limitations, Beat Stress uses the Heart Beat Morphology (HBM) method to detect stress using only one heartbeat. This technology is aligned with 2 priority topics and respective topics of the National Smart Specialization Strategy (ENEI), as well as with 2 priority areas and respective topics of the North Region Smart Specialization Strategy (RIS3).

Technology Licensing Office

The mission of the Technology Licensing Office is to protect and license technology developed at INESC TEC. To carry out its mission, the office works in close collaboration with the Legal Support Service and the Industry Partnership Service. The office’s responsibilities consist of establishing and managing INESC TEC’s processes related to: internal scouting and dissemination of research results that can be protected by Intellectual Property (IP) rights; market and state of the art assessment; definition of IP strategy; technology licensing; negotiation and monitoring of licensing contracts.

Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship

The mission of our Centre for Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship (CITE) is to carry out multidisciplinary activities at the intersection of technology, innovation, sustainability, and management, promoting the exploration, implementation, and adoption of responsible and sustainable socio-technical systems. We focus on the areas of Innovation Management, Technology Management, and Technology-Based Entrepreneurship, exploring theories, methods, models, and tools to support the innovation process. Through research and innovation activities—including consultancy and advanced training—we address environmental, social, and economic challenges, contributing to the exploration, implementation, and adoption of innovative solutions. We create impact through research and innovation outcomes, aligning our activities with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We place high value on collaboration with both national and international partners. We are a member of the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), where our mission is to support Portuguese companies on their innovation journey by identifying and fostering international partnerships for business or innovation development, while also helping to find the most relevant funding sources. We support the implementation of innovation management systems, integrating technology management with new business models and value chains, and promoting sustainable and responsible practices. We also run open innovation and acceleration programmes, contributing to the development of startups and the strengthening of innovation ecosystems. We work across three core areas: innovation management and the front end of innovation (FEI), technology management and policy, and entrepreneurship and business model innovation.
