E-Tex: Industrial proof-of-concept of the UGent e-textile platform Ghent University
CMST has developed in the past 10 years a toolbox of modular techniques to reliably integrate electronics on textile. For each of 3 techniques, a patent was granted in the US and the EU. Which combination of techniques is required depends on the properties of the textile substrate and the amount of washing cycles the smart textile should withstand. In this project we want to procure a pilot assembly line to integrate electronics on textile ...
Kick Incubator Track KU Leuven
Entrepreneurship and innovation are concepts that every student, from any faculty, should feel familiar with. They not only form the basis of new companies, but are also a bridge between theory and practice and between university and the labor market. From that perspective, KICK was founded with a clear goal in mind: to offer a 'one-stop-shop' around entrepreneurship for KU Leuven students. In addition to the specific coaching of start-ups, ...
