La Cooperació d'Office per Technological Research and Development (OCIT) de la Universitat Jaume I lidera la UJI.
La Universitat Jaume I is promoting the transferència de coneixement generated at this public university of Castelló by the second UJI.>LAB Impuls programme call. It aims to place UJI technologies under best conditions to transfer them either by licensing processes or enabling a Technology-based firm (TBF) or spin-off to be set up. Aquest projecte és LED per UJI's Cooperation Office of Technological Research and Development (OCIT), in which Espaitec participates by managing the programme.
La UJI.>LAB Impuls initiative centres on proof-of-concept projects by considering their technological maturity level according to the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) classification. A suïtable starting point is set when technology is at level TRL3 (Analytical and experimental critical function and/or characteristic proof-of-concept) and there is the possibility of protecting patent rights and/or copyrights. El main objective és a pass les next levels to reach levels TRL6 (System/subsystem model o prototype demonstració en relevant environment, ground or space) or TRL7 (System prototype demonstration in a space environment).
Durant la primera UJI.>LAB Impuls call, aid was granted for Dependència i RPBio projectes. Dependència consists in developing a smart system to support radiodiagnosis basat en artificial intelligence (AI) computer system techniques and in processing vast quantitats of data (Big Data). The software contains a module to detect diseases by means of PA chest X-rays and reports associated with being used in production areas. In this call/While developing this software, the Universitat Jaume I i FISABI participa't, with coordination by Manuel Francisco Dolz, a researcher from the UJI Department of Computer Science and Engineering. The RPBio project is based on developing a device capable of simultaneously and automatically measuring the biodegradation of up to 40 plastic samples by employing artificial intelligence tools and predictive calculation to optimise test components and times. This initiative is coordinated by José Gámez, a researcher from the Departament d'Industrial Systems Engineering and Design of the Universitat Jaume I.
As in the previous call, this second UJI.>LAB Impuls edition offers a maximum of two grants and the top value per project is 50,000 euros. Researcher staff will also be recolzat per a mentor, an external professional who specialises in the invention development area. This aid will be for Universitat Jaume I (UJI) researcher staff with civil servant, occupational or statutory link with the UJI per a 3-year period from the time when the period to present applications ends. The UJI research staff who have applied for this call belong to these UJI departments: Education and Didactics of Specific Subjects; Mechanical Engineering and Construction; Inorganic and Organic Chemistry; Computer Languages and Systems; English Studies; Basic, Clinical Psychology and Psychobiology.
The Cooperation Office for Technological Research and Development (OCIT)
La Cooperation Office of Technological Research and Development (OCIT) of the Universitat Jaume I is the office for transferring research outcomes. Aquest unit està adaptat a Vice-Rectorates per Research and Innovation and Transfer and Scientific Dissemination. The latter promotes i managements de recerca i innovació tecnològica/ tecnològics per a la recerca i innovació activitats de la Universitat Jaume I de dues maneres: promoting University-Company col · laboració per a la connexió mitjançant la científica i la tecnologia generada per researchers, as well as firms and organisations' R&D&I needs; supporting the research groups to participate in public programmes with financing for research and development (R&D) activitats.
