PolyU has excelled in this year's International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva "Special Edition 2021 Inventions Geneva Evaluation Days – Virtual Event" with three Gold and three Silver Medals.
The winning projects of PolyU cover a wide range of applications, including healthcare, environmental monitoring, smart cities, and automotive safety, thus showcasing the University's distinguished capabilities and accomplishments in innovation and technology. Among the six projects the University presented to the judges, two have already been commercialised through PolyU-supported start-ups led by our researchers.
The three Gold Medal winners are: Prof Pauline Pei Li, Department of Applied Biology and Chemical Technology, with CareCoatexTM: A Biomaterial-based Core-Shell Particles for Safe and Effective Antibacterial and Antiviral Applications; Prof John Wenzhong Shi, Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics, with Smart City Platform: A Comprehensive System for Spatial Data Infrastructure; and Sr Dr Charles Man-sing Wong, Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics, with Smart Monitoring System for Urban Tree Management.
The three Silver Medal winners are: Ir Prof Yongping Zheng, Department of Biomedical Engineering, with Liverscan: Palm-sized Real-time B-mode Ultrasound Imaging Guided System for Liver Fibrosis Assessment; Prof Eric Ka-wai Cheng, Department of Electrical Engineering, with A Small All-electric Antilock Braking System; and Dr Xin Zhao, Department of Biomedical Engineering, with Biomimicking Photocrosslinkable Nanocomposite Bone Graft.
The awards won by the University at this event not only demonstrate the professionalism and strength of PolyU's researchers, but also motivate them to further excel in their academic and scientific pursuits, enabling PolyU to push the boundaries of technological innovation and to generate a far-reaching impact on our community and the world.
The exhibition, moved online this year due to the pandemic, is regarded as one of the important annual events in the world devoted exclusively to inventions, with about 600 exhibitors from more than 20 countries/regions participating.
