ETH Board
The ETH AI Center is becoming an interdisciplinary hotspot for artificial intelligence. A new generation of AI researchers will be trained there, says Professor Andreas Krause, but also AI entrepreneurs who bring research to the economy. Such application-oriented research is already being conducted there today. Professor Julia Vogt, for example, bridges the gap between data-driven computer science and applied medicine.
Achieving razor-sharp vision in the metaverse
Research
EPFL
Thanks to the enhanced light-field technology developed by EPFL spin-off Creal, augmented-reality and virtual-reality images appear increasingly life-like with less strain on users’ eyes. The company will present the latest version of its system at the Augmented World Expo this week in California.
Who owns the discoveries and inventions made by EPFL scientists?

EPFL
EPFL Summer series: How science works. Every year, EPFL scientists churn out over 4,000 journal articles on new discoveries and nearly 140 inventions. Even though discoveries and inventions are closely related, it would be a mistake to put them in the same basket: the intellectual property is handled in two very different ways.
Start-ups: Where design and technology meet

EPFL
Enabled by Design is a joint EPFL-ECAL program that forges ties between researchers and designers to make it easier to bring new technology to market.
Towards a more affordable analysis of air pollution

EPFL
EPFL scientists have developed a new method for chemical analysis of fine particles that they plan to extend on a large scale – including in developing countries – through an Innosuisse innovation grant award and a new startup.
EPFL now has its own Hyperloop test track

EPFL
Engineers at EPFL’s DESL lab, working in association with EPFL spin-off Swisspod, have built a Hyperloop test track on the Lausanne campus. They will use the loop – a large vacuum tube for ultra-high-speed travel – to test a linear induction motor. The research is being funded by an Innosuisse grant.
