About SAL

EU-TRAINS

EU-TRAINS develops innovative wearables and smart textiles with integrated sensors for monitoring vital signs—even under challenging conditions such as underwater. The project aims to promote telemedicine, health monitoring, and an active lifestyle, as well as to establish a fully European value chain for sensor-based health technologies.

Project goals

  • Improving textile inte­grated elec­tronic systems for real-time moni­toring of heart, respi­ra­tory and move­ment para­me­ters on land and in-water through an inter­dis­ci­pli­nary approach
  • Devel­oping semi­con­ductor tech­nolo­gies which are able to with­stand harsh ambient condi­tions such as salt fogs, chlo­rine, deter­gents, high and low temper­a­tures, etc., and which allow for the re-use of micro-nano systems both in sports and in the health­care sector
  • Devel­oping minia­tur­ized wear­able devices allowing the capturing of bio-chem­ical para­me­ters such as lactate, glucose or elec­trolytes from sweat
  • Equip­ping clothes with both measuring units and the edge-AI proces­sors for periph­eral data fusion and edge-cloud-continuum

Project Consortium

The Eu-Trains consortium consists of 18 partners: 4 from Austria, 3 from Italy, 2 from Germany, 2 from France, 2 from the Netherlands, 1 from Finland, 2 from Poland, 1 from Ukraine, and 1 from Spain.

REDSEL

The re­search focus of this project is on inves­ti­ga­ting novel concepts and archi­tec­ture for safe, reliable, and effi­cient high-voltage/​low-voltage onboard power network systems. The diffe­rent concepts are evaluated for specific opera­ting condi­tions, and the most suitable one is imple­mented in the form of a demons­trator.

Mag-TF

The Mag-TF initiative aims to establish a pilot facility for the development, manufacturing, and characterization of advanced magnetic thin films for spintronic and MEMS applications. This includes the acquisition of specialized equipment for thin film deposition as well as for wafer-level magnetic device characterization. The Mag-TF infrastructure will be integrated into the existing SAL microfabrication facility.

AURORA

In collaboration with TDK Electronics, Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) has developed next-generation 2D micromirrors for AR/VR applications. The focus was on a wide field of view, low power consumption, and a compact design. The components were realized as prototypes using SAL's 200mm PiezoMEMS technology platform....
