The technology relates to an application that allows the efficient delivery of groceries ordered online by using a car lift service from general road drivers. Unlike existing delivery applications, this platform does increase the reliance on dedicated delivery vehicles but makes use of a network of

The technology relates to a new generation of telecommunications and data processing technology with improved wavelength sensitivity in the visible and near-infrared wavelengths range rather than microwave communication in 2–4 GHz. The technology provides the realisation of optical sources (LEDs)

A mobile application to facilitate the efficient delivery of artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) which are dependent on a multi-embedded supply chain coordination for the distribution of malaria drugs. The distribution of these is hampered by a lack of coordination among stakeholders

The mobile application teaches fundamental computer programming concepts in a competitive, engaging, and playful way. Designed for students aged 10 to 14, the app features a military tank navigating through a maze, following directions provided by physical puzzle tokens. With 20 levels, players

An engineer at Nelson Mandela University has developed a secure storage trolley for tablet computers. The storage also has a charging component which allows for them to be charged while safely stored.

Prosopis Glandulosa commonly referred to as Honey Mesquite, has been discovered to strengthen skeletal muscle and boost healing of contused skeletal muscle. The plant is easy and cheap to cultivate. Harvesting of the plant will not deplete any natural resources. Tests on rat models scientifically

The researchers at Stellenbosch University have developed a technology for the radiometric correction of high spatial resolution imagery (aerial or UAV). The imagery is calibrated to approximate surface reflectance by fusing with concurrent and collocated satellite imagery. The technique allows the

PhenoLAB is an online web-based analyses platform and database for wine producers. PhenoLAB incorporates highly accurate, extensive and robust analyses methods based on absorbency values for determining tannins, colour density, anthocyanins and total phenolics levels in grapes, fermenting must and

ImmerseCell is a virtual reality experience (VLE) to teach undergraduate and postgraduate students about key cellular structures with an interactive, narrated, guided experience (Figure 1, Figure 2). The team utilised real-world microscopy data of various key cellular structures in the mammalian

A biological solution using yeast strains which naturally remove chitinase enzymes responsible for haze formation. Adding these yeast cells to wine or grape must results in a crystal-clear product without the need for bentonite or synthetic additives.

Fluorobiotech’s technology drastically decreases the amount of time spent recovering target proteins from producer cells. Reducing the extraction time from 1 hour’s hard labour with multiple steps to an effortless one-step process that can take less than 15 minutes. This allows for parallel

Removable containers placed into the appliance base are lit up and dispensed when selected by the mobile app. Automotive MOSFETS control pulsing solenoid actuators which dispense set volumes with each pulse using one-hot encoded input/output command protocol. Intentional design of the circuit and
