In passive safety, human variability is currently difficult to account for using crash test dummies and regulatory procedures. However, vulnerable populations such as children and elderly need to be considered in the design of safety systems in order to further reduce the fatalities by protecting all users and not only so called averages. Based on the finite element method, advanced Human Body Models for injury prediction have the potential to represent the population variability and to provide more accurate injurypredictionsthan alternatives using global injury criteria. However, these advanced HBM are underutilized in industrial R&D. Reasons include difficulties to position the models – which are typically only available in one posture – in actual vehicle environments, and the lack of model families to represent the population variability (which reduces their interestwhen compared to dummies). The main objective of the project will be to develop new tools to position and personalize these advanced HBM. Specifications will be agreed upon with future industrial users, and an extensive evaluation in actual applications will take place during the project. The tools will be made available by using an Open Source exploitation strategy and extensive dissemination driven by the industrial partners.Proven approaches will be combined with innovative solutions transferred from computer graphics, statistical shape and ergonomicsmodeling. The consortium will be balanced between industrial users (with seven European car manufacturers represented), academic users involved ininjury biomechanics, and partners with different expertise with strong potential for transfer of knowledge. By facilitating the generation of population and subject-specific HBM and their usage in production environments, the tools will enable new applications in industrial R&D for the design of restraint systems as well as new research applications.

The Piedpiper project (funded under the FP7-SME2011scheme) started in December 2011 with its aim being to transform the Pest Control industry. To date it has developed (ahead of schedule) a new transdermal toxin and a new Pest Control Device using an aerosol to deliver the toxin. With the EU ban on warfarins due to take effect in 2014 we believe that this project is not just viable but essential to offer the EU a product that is effective, safe and environmentally friendly. Rats and mice carry over 60 diseases that can be transmitted to man and cause damage to crops,buildings and infrastructure which costs billions of euros a year.The ever increasing rat population needs to be controlled. Rats have developed a tolerance to currently used warfarins, our product addresses this problem as one shot=one kill. Although toxic to rats our product is safe for humans and other species, resulting in a safe pest control system with a lower environmental toxic load and a lower carbon footprint than other methods. The aim of PiedpiperDA is to fill the gap between the development of the new technology and bring it to market. This will require A business plan to be drawn up for use in the raising of finance Registration, CE marking, finalisation of IP Protection to take place Transdermal Toxin and PCD to be commercialised and undergo field trials Further Market Research and a program of raising awareness of the new technology to be undertaken.

The transportation industry has for a long time been engaged in the application of new lightweight materials for primary structural design in an effort to develop more energy efficient structures to meet low emissions targets without compromising public safety. This is also true for the rail industry, but the implementation of new lightweight materials has been slow mainly due to the lack of suitable certification procedures addressing the specific operational requirements of a railway vehicle. Such procedures are necessary so that rail vehicle manufacturers and operators can be confident that rolling stock made of a new material will perform as intended and will be at least as safe as a vehicle made out of the material it replaces. The REFRESCO project aims to achieve this goal by creating the regulatory framework for the use of new structural materials in rail car bodies. The existing certification procedures will be analysed, gaps identified and test and assessment methodologies for both isotropic and orthotropic materials will be developed. It is expected that the output from REFRESCO will accelerate the implementation of new materials in transport applications improve the competitiveness of transport industries, ensure sustainable, efficient and affordable transport services will be available and will create new skills and job opportunities through research and development in new material technologies.

Horseback riding attractions are available in more than 30 countries across Europe with considerable economic impact on tourist attractions and becoming more popular due to the close contact with the riders and nature that such activities offers. Horseback activities have available tailored packages for riders of all levels of proficiency, from beginner to advance, including from beginner lessons for children up to long trip excursions. Currently there are not safety measures for such activities, , even sometimes alone. It is not mandatory nowadays to inform the horse riding monitor, e.g, about the specific health conditions which may have impact on the safety of the horse ride activity: and the most dramatic, are not a few the cases where the rider suffers from epileptic disease and have suffered such attack in the middle of the forest. Besides, falling, runaway horses, nervous horses, etc…may affect all riders with accidents in some case dramatic, and with undesirable effects on the reputation of horse keepers. The project objective is to develop a novel system for the monitoring of horse activity risks and horse health monitoring and management, with special focus on non-expert users and “in home” and outdoor monitoring. It will consist of a comfortable horse harness, which will include the following skills: Horse monitoring: i) GPS receiver and GPRS remote communication: ii) Movement activity: by means of accelerometer and gyroscope, iii) on-horse health measurements (sweating, pulse…etc…); iv)Wireless transmission and different modes of use (excursion, indoors, etc); v) Horse rider monitoring: Measurements of security and health of user, such as falling (among others)vi) group guider monitoring unit for outdoors equine activities; vii) Stable moniroting for horses. The software will add i)Automatic alarm raising: ii) Horse monitoring iii) History of user and horse assignment; iv) Horse interactions; v) relationship & data history of horses etc.

European policy targets to increase the utilization of renewable energy sources. Biogas is one of the possible solutions for achieving these targets. Although agriculture and waste water are the main sources of biogas, landfills, collecting municipal waste, have huge potential, too. There are about 3000 landfills operating in the EU, accepting ~100 million tons of municipal waste per year. The potential (theoretic) calorific energy content of the gas produced from such amount is ca. 24 billion kWh, equal to the energy need of ca. 2 million European households. Despite the huge potential laying in the bio-methane content of landfill gas, only few plant targets its conversion to fuel quality. The main barrier of improved utilization lies in its specific mixture: landfill gas contains 1.5-5% oxygen as opposed to biogas produced by conventional technologies. Oxygen must be eliminated, because of the strict regulations and associated technical problems: • Corrosion issue, it reacts with other compounds of the gas such as H2S and results in high corrosive sulphuric acid. • Safety issue. Oxygen in compressed methane increases the risk of explosion, thus reducing the possibility of compressing. Several upgrading technologies are available for the conventional biogas but these methods alone cannot eliminate oxygen. They are inefficient and poorly economical for oxygen removal. A group of European SMEs together with organizations experienced in the relevant R&D put together this ambitious NoO2 project. The proposed NoO2 technology would perfectly complete existing upgrading methods, and would make possible vacuum harvested methane rich gases, such as landfill gas, becoming available natural gas alternatives, in an economic way. The SME partners target to expand the currently marginal market of landfill biogas upgrading technologies and expects to reach a total of 7 million € income from sales of the NoO2 technology. The RTD partners of the project will extend their expertise and knowledge portfolio by realizing the NoO2 project. In large extend, the utilization and operation of landfill gas upgrading plants will result in economical (savings in energy, expanding technology market), environmental (increased rate of renewable energy), and political (decreasing dependency on foreign energy sources) benefits for the European society.

The UV-MULTICAM (Multiple Application UV Camera) for highly reliable, cost effective early detection and accurate localisation of fire project will enable considerable reduction in the damage caused by forest fires and industrial fires. With an excellent consortium including experts in the field of VUV sensors, opto-electronics, integration and industrialisation, we will demonstrate our advanced fire detection system UV-MULTICAM. The results of the FORFIRE R4SME project have delivered significant technical achievement, in establishing the basis for very fast response fire detectors using Ultra-Violet emissions from the seat of the fire. The project achieved successful basic prototype detection device operating in the true solar blind spectral region i.e. <230 nm to minimise false alarms from solar radiation. We believe that the FORFIRE results form the basis of a new generation of advanced fire detection and alarm systems that would greatly improve response times to the outbreak of fire not only outdoors but also indoors in industrial and domestic settings. This will enable us to achieve our goals of improving safety of individuals, reducing environmental damage caused by fires and reducing the enormous costs of fire damage across Europe. Our technology was developed during the FP7 R4SME Project FORFIRE (Grant agreement no FP7-231481) and has shown strong commercial potential. With project costs of €1.1 million including both EC contribution and partner costs, we see an overall return on investment (ROI) of about x 32 within 3 years of project completion. The UV-MULTICAM consortium includes two participants from the original R4SME project, including the SME participants Heron Technologies and Irish Precision Optics.

Our project is to develop a commercial pre-production prototype point of care test for invasive cervical cancer (ICC). This easy-to-use lab-on-a-chip system (SelfPOCNAD) will enable women to collect samples in the comfort of their own homes and take them into a GP surgery for testing and provision of immediate results. This will dramatically increase compliance of women with the ICC screening programs will and drastically decrease the ICC incidence and save lives. ICC is the second most common cancer in women. Each year, there are over 470,000 new cases globally. Of these, 33,000 are in the EU. Once the disease is established, it is hard to cure, so each year 233,000 women die - 15,000 in the EU[1]. After breast cancer, it is the second-most-common cancer amongst women. However, this is a preventable and treatable disease, if detected in the early stages. Some EU member states have well-organised screening and effective prevention programmes. But better compliance with screening using this inexpensive lab-on-a-chip system, especially in New Member States, could save the lives of 3-5,000 European women p.a. This demonstration project will enable the SelfPOCNAD consortium to prove that they have a technological and commercially sound proposition. It will allow them to secure investment by either a major blue chip company or an investment house to fund the scale up to production of this life saving and commercially attractive Point of Care (POC) test.
