3 key

specializations

1) applied ICT in smart and integrated transport

Smart and integrated transport

DEX IC is developing new concepts in areas of smart and integrated transport and e-mobility for better mobility, less congestion, more safety and security with a substantial reduction of traffic congestion.

DEX IC is well aware of the importance and the

potential in e-mobility and smart and integrated

transport

Applied ICT in automotive industry

• DEX IC developed AUTOCLUSTERS initiative resulting in research project Fast in Charge that has been implemented under the FP7 and its main objective is to foster the democratisation of electric vehicles (EV) in the urban environment by developing an easier charging solution for ease the EV use by the large public

• Objective will be achieved by developing a cost-effective modular infrastructure offering a global solution for EV charging

• The concept of Fast in Charge is to create a highly performing inductive solution enabling a 40 kW power transfer to the EV in 2 charging operational situations (Stationary and on-route)

2) applied ICT in energy efficiency

applied ICT in energy efficiency

• Energy efficiency is one of the easiest and most cost effective ways to combat climate change, clean the air we breathe, improve the competitiveness of our businesses including SMEs and reduce energy costs for consumers. 21st Century should lead to develop new, energy-efficient technologies while boosting the efficiency of current technologies on the market

• Energy efficiency in the industrial processes allows to obtain the reduction of primary energy consumption to the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions and to improve the strength on the market

applied ICT in energy efficiency

• Research team of DEX IC has been cooperating on the development of innovative SMART tool „LiCEA“ (Life Cycle based energy audit) that allows the discovery of numerous unexploited energy saving opportunities across SMEs in region of Central Europe

• Simplified and innovative LiCEA software will be analyzing and evaluating energy flows within production processes without negatively influenced outputs
