Scientists from the Faculty of Mechatronics won the James Dyson award

- During discussions with medics, we realised the scale of the problem. Correct and fast detection of disturbances in the wound healing process and the development of pathogenic microorganisms not only shortens the treatment process, but also makes it possible to stop a life-threatening infection - emphasises Dominik Baraniecki, M.Sc., who, together with Piotr Walter, M.Sc., and Tomasz Raczyński, M.Sc., won the national stage of the James Dyson Award competition. The researchers developed a design for a smart dressing.

Registration – September 2022. Bachelor studies and Master studies

End to unpleasant surprises

What do the buzzwords smart home, internet of things and convenience have in common? All of these elements can be found in a simple, yet life-saving invention created by a Polish company producing home and garden electronics. The entrepreneurial approach of the Aquilo company, together with the scientific flair of the employees of our university: Karol Baginski, M.Sc., Wojciech Credo, M.Sc., Sergiusz Łuczak, Prof.Tit. and the head of the Centre for Commercialisation of Research Results - Paweł Zych, M.Sc., has enabled them to create a device facilitating everyday home care.

Obituary

It is with deep regret that we inform you of the death of our colleague, Leszek Kudła, Prof.Tit., PhD, BEng who was associated with the Faculty of Mechatronics at the Warsaw University of Technology for over 50 years. A scientist who, as an associate professor at the Institute of Metrology and Biomedical Engineering, became an educator of many generations of excellent specialists. Privately, he was an indispensable and irreplaceable husband, father and grandfather.

Scanner for Sherlock

The projects conducted by our researchers are truly diverse. In one of the latest issues of the Capital Police Magazine, you can read about a 3D scanner developed at our department, which allows skilled specialists to return to the scene of a trial virtually at any time. This state-of-the-art solution helps to reconstruct how a homicide may have occurred. You can read more about modern 3D scanners in Daniel Niezdrop's article 'Bloodstains. Traces That Speak', where Robert Sitnik, Prof.Tit, PhD, BEng talks about a research project that created a professional crime scene scanner.
