6th framework programme project ARFLEX (Adaptive Robots for Flexible Manufacturing Systems), contract NMP2.CT-2005-016680

The project aim is to improve industrial robot design philosophy with respect to the state of the art by identifying new applications to substitute less flexible mechanically based manufacturing tools. The work of our team was focused on specific tasks related to the implementation of the visual guidance of an industrial robot and development of sensor data processing software, and calibration of the sensory system. Experimental platform was put together to achieve the above goals.

Granted patent no. 21978: Test bus locking mechanism.

It is well known that IEEE Std 1149.1 test infrastructure is vulnerable to hackers. In order to solve the problem, a security extension of IEEE Std 1149.1 consisting of standard test bus locking mechanism was developed. Patent application for the developed security extension was submitted to the Slovenian Intellectual Property Office, and patent no. 21978 was granted in 2006.

Public-domain server application for modern menu planning

We have implemented public-domain server application for modern menu planning for healthy people as well as people with special dietary needs. The application was used for optimizing typical menus for workers, preschool and school children, students and patients. The application is also of public importance because it gives an insight into nutritional data collected in Slovene laboratories in last years simply by using the Internet.
