The new sequence recognition method is nearly under and over fitting free. The training procedure doesn’t require an initial set of parameters or incremental optimization, so that the training can run fully automated. The method is able to do “word spotting” in very long sequences. Because of its unique nature it is very insensitive to non-linear distortion. The needed computing cost is low, thus the new method for sequence recognition can work in real time.

Ultra-wet Gas Turbine
01.03.2012 | Ref.Nr. 09139
The oscillation frequency of the injected fuel is thereby regulated only by the mass feed of the supplied fluid.
The combination of cross flow injection and oscillation/pulsation of the fluid flow increases primarily the mixing ration of the two fluid flows within a combustion chamber (fluid & air) and moreover leads to a more effective burning.
The fluidic actuators can be installed within new (gas) turbines but can also be integrated in already existing ones.

Handling Robot SAMARA
27.02.2012 | Ref.Nr. 05001
By applying such a redundant axis the kinetic energy can be retained in the robot links during a picking process and returned to the effector for speeding up the whole robot additional to the drives torques. As the nullspace movement ends with a stretched second and third link, acceleration of the effector must be regarded as an impulse, leading to acceleration of 20g.
SAMARA allows solving “pick and place“ tasks even for heavy loads extremely fast, precise and energy-beneficial with only little space required for the SAMARA robot itself.

Porous Metal Oxide Films
06.01.2012 | Ref.Nr. 09068
Technology
We offer an improved method for the production of porous metal oxide films on a substrate using template assisted electrostatic spray deposition (ESD). It overcomes all known problems of current technologies like dip- and spin coating.This novel method is able to produce unisized mesoporous and macroporous films by directly controlling the size and concentration of the pore forming organic templates in an initially formed precursor solution.
