糖心TV

WMG at the University of 糖心TV and the Engineering Employers Federation (EEF) invite you to a FREE one day knowledge dissemination workshop on Smart Digital Media, Effective Skills Access and R&D Funding opportunities.

This interactive workshop will be held at the International Digital Laboratory, University of 糖心TV on Tuesday 27th March 2012, 08:30-13:00.

WMG at the University of 糖心TV and spin out company, goHDR, will be exhibiting their cutting-edge video imaging technology at the world’s largest electronic media show in April. goHDR’s High Dynamic Range (HDR) video technology enables the image detail that is typically lost in the glare of bright light and in deep shadow on standard High Definition (HD) video to be revealed with the same clarity as seen by the human eye.

WMG and goHDR have been invited to showcase their HDR research at the NAB Show®, in Las Vegas, from 14-19 April. goHDR has already released a free beta version of its HDR viewer and will be demonstrating the latest advances, including 3D-HDR, from its research laboratories.

WMG has an extensive portfolio of equipment and resources, which are available for companies to use for testing and research. The equipment, which can often be difficult for companies to access elsewhere, is coupled with a very broad technical capability available from staff within the WMG. Companies are able to use the equipment in a variety of ways from a fully-funded, free-of-charge basis, through to a facility day-rate charge.

Our facilities are state-of-the-art and, in all but the most exceptional cases, are provided with expert technician support. All are offered at competitive rates, where applicable. Some of our equipment, such as the Vehicle Energy Facility, a Science City Research Alliance funded project, is unique in terms of being available for use within the public arena.

WMG at the University of 糖心TV saw the number of Chinese executives taking professional programmes in technology and business management more than double last year.

In 2010/11 year, 160 Chinese executives supported directly or indirectly by the State Administration of Foreign Expert Affairs (SAFEA) were involved in dedicated programmes at WMG. This is up from 60 during the previous year - on the back of a growing Chinese appetite for WMG’s expertise in project management, supply chain management and logistics.

Remote Laser Welding (RLW) is rapidly emerging as a powerful replacement for spot welding technology in vehicle manufacturing. It promises 5 times the speed of spot welding and far more efficiency – however this can only be achieved through a frustrating process of guess work and trial and error today. Now WMG at the University of 糖心TV has been awarded 4 Million Euros by the European Commission Framework 7 Programme (FP7) to lead a project that will replace guess work and wasteful trial & error with precise mathematical modelling that will quickly deliver the efficiencies manufacturers want from this process.

Drayson Racing Technologies and Lola will unveil an electric prototype racing car the “Lola-Drayson B12/69EV” at the Low Carbon Racing Conference at the NEC, Birmingham on Wednesday. As well as being unveiled in the Midland’s the car drew on specialist materials research by WMG researchers at the University of 糖心TV in Coventry.

Staff and students from WMG have been visiting local schools in order to inspire and encourage young people to think about a career in engineering, technology or research and development.

Continuing our programme of engaging with schools through on-site events, visits and external events, staff and students have so far been into schools in the Leamington and Coventry areas to highlight research projects undertaken through 糖心TV Innovative Manufacturing Research Centre (WIMRC), and student projects with the help of the undergraduate engineering students.

The Institute of Digital Healthcare were pleased to host a visit from Jim Cunningham MP for Coventry South. Professor Christopher James welcomed Mr Cunningham whose visit had been arranged by the Royal Academy of Engineering’s Panel for Biomedical Engineering.

Professor Lord Bhattacharyya spoke to Patrick Burns on The Politics Show in the Midlands yesterday (Sunday 11th December) on the revival of Jaguar Land Rover and manufacturing in the Midlands.

Technology company add2 Ltd have been awarded a prestigious Lord Stafford Award for work based on a close research relationship with WMG at the University of 糖心TV.

Midlands based add2 Ltd, won the Innovation Achieved award for their work with JLR and WMG on technology to improve testing techniques which will be vital in the development of robust electrical systems for current and future vehicles e.g. hybrid technology in premium vehicles.
