Revolutionary: Creating useful substances from plastic Two engineers from the ETH Lausanne (EPFL) are revolutionising the recycling of plastic: following the example of proteins, something new and useful is to be created after the decomposition of plastic. High melanin yield from the honey fungus Melanin is more valuable than gold. Researchers at Empa recently succeeded in extracting large quantities of the pigment from the honey fungus. One of the intended applications of this versatile substance is to restore antique wind instruments. New technology makes home hydrogen fueling stations feasible A new development by the EPFL Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne is providing fresh impetus for the idea of the hydrogen car. The goal behind the technology is to enable small hydrogen fueling stations in private households and thus facilitate the establishment of a comprehensive hydrogen fuel network. Industrial Metaverse It's here: the parallel world of industry. What are the benefits of the Industrial Metaverse? And where does development stand? Urs Reimann, Head of Digital Transformation at Bystronic, provides answers. Researchers unveil energy storage concept using a sand cable car Researchers have come up with the vision of a pumped storage power plant of a special kind. Their idea involves a type of cable car that can be used to transport sand or gravel up mountains in order to generate electricity when required by transporting it down the mountain again. Technology that breaks the mold Spatial augmented reality uses real-time projections to expand our perception of our three-dimensional world, creating perfect illusions of fantasy. Researcher and pioneer Martin Fröhlich demonstrates just what this technology is capable of. App against fear There is a new app that uses 360-degree images shot by drones to help people overcome their fear of heights. Researchers want to detect blood poisoning earlier using AI With the help of artificial intelligence (AI) a research team at the University Children's Hospital in Zurich has defined new criteria for the diagnosis of blood poisoning. This could improve the early detection of this dangerous disease. Space travel: Moon and Jupiter in focus While Mars was the focus of space activities in 2021, many missions to the Moon will start this year. In addition, ESA is setting off for Jupiter. And NASA wants to divert an asteroid.
