Button Optics is a low-cost all in one laser diagnostic device that can measure various laser characteristics from a single measurement, which can also work in reverse as a structured light creation device.

It is a technology spin-out company from the Structured Light Lab. Their mission is to commercialize ground-breaking and exciting research, produce high-tech solutions for a variety of applications and stimulate the local industry through international competitiveness.

Defence Cluster's Passive Radar for Air Traffic Control is a class of radar that makes use of third-party illuminators. For example, public broadcasting services such as frequency modulation radio, to illuminate an aircraft(s) of interest and subsequently locate and track these aircrafts by processing the signals reflected from the aircraft.

Given the absence of a dedicated transmitter subsystem in passive radar systems, it serves as a cost-effective radar solution that requires no spectrum licensing, consumes significantly less power, requires minimal equipment and has reduced maintenance.

Durban University of Technology's Black composite brake pad is  a black composite brake pad developed offers improved braking force leading to shorter stopping distances, lesser wear rate interpreted to improved durability, improved cooling interpreted to improved heat dissipation, lesser noise, and is environmentally friendly.

Enzyme Technologies is a  biotechnology company that has developed a technology to produce Bromelain, a protease enzyme of high activity and stability from waste pineapple stems.

Being a powerful digestive aid and anti-inflammatory, Bromelain can be used to improve gut health and to treat gastrointestinal diseases. The product is a natural blood thinner and can be used in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. An effective natural de-wormer and anti-biotic with potent anti-viral properties, bromelain provides effective immune support.
