The inverse Class-F power amplifier (PA) comprises an appropriately biased GaN active device, input matching network, and output wave-shaping and matching network. The novel design of the wave-shaping and output matching network ensures minimal overlap of the drain voltage and current waveforms, and...

The biological sand filtration system is a simple, cost-effective solution used to improve the quality of winery wastewater for reuse (e.g., for beneficial irrigation). The system can operate entirely off-grid using solar panels and gravity for energy. Microbial communities within the system degrade...

Omega Caro-E Emulsion is created through a patented process developed at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology. It is used in the production of a range of Omega Caro-E products that combine Omega-3 fatty acids with 11 different carotenoids and five different forms of vitamin E, all derived...

The Braai Tool (TBT) is an innovative, unique, and ultimate solution tool for braaing that was produced at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology. This product integrates five key braai utensils into one highly functional, sleek, and efficient product. This innovation comes in the context of a...

The Rotatable Fish Drying Frame is aimed at formalising a specific fish-drying process already used by different communities in Africa. The frame allows for the drying of up to 100 kg of fresh fish at a time using the existing iteration. The key principle is that after one week of drying, the drum...

This technology involves a method for generating hydrogen in an electrolysis cell. A proton exchange membrane (PEM) is used to separate anode and cathode chambers of the cell. The space between the anode and the PEM is filled with aqueous sulfuric acid. In use, gaseous sulphur dioxide is fed to the...

Omega Caro-E Xtra combines Omega-3 fatty acids with 11 different carotenoids and five different forms of vitamin E, all derived from palm oil and manufactured by a patented process in Malaysia. In addition, it also contains 50% of the daily requirement for vitamin D. The concept was created and...

In a COVID-context there is a necessity for social distancing. Consequently, managers of public spaces or institutions may be tasked with the enforcement or monitoring of this requirement. A result is that the real-time tracking of pedestrian movement in public spaces has become a growing reality.

MaskMonitor is a software application developed at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology to detect human faces as they pass a camera with the purpose of determining whether they are wearing a mask properly or not. MaskMonitor uses Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms to...

This novel system allows for digital monitoring of payloads on heavy vehicles and avoids repetitive, physical weighing of compliant vehicles at static weighbridges to check overloading status. This is achieved by digitally linking all weighbridges and existing or new cameras on a specific corridor...
