Toxi Trail™ is an educational board game developed at Stellenbosch University to strengthen toxicology knowledge and clinical reasoning among healthcare professionals. Building on earlier game-based learning tools, the design incorporates realistic toxicology scenarios, variable difficulty levels

The PAGA is an all-in-one anthropometric device designed for preterm and fragile infants, providing accurate, minimally invasive growth measurements in hospital and clinic settings, including low-resource environments. It captures all key metrics in one tool: weight, length, head circumference, foot

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

This technology makes it possible to grow tiny, three-dimensional (3D) pieces of human heart tissue, called cardiac spheroids. It models the functions of a real heart and recreates key features of cardiometabolic disease such as insulin resistance and high fat levels. What makes this technology a

A cadaver dissection table that consists of a long tray designed to hold a cadaver. The tray has openings for fluid drainage and an angled section at one end. The table also has ventilation holes angled toward the flat part of the tray where the cadaver rests. Below the tray is a long bath, and

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

This technology uses Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) fitted with a camera to calibrate heliostats in large Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) or Concentrating Solar Thermal (CST) tower systems. The UAV does not have a single fixed position and provides several advantages over traditional methods using
