Dr Leandro Pecchia from the School of Engineering at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV, has been awarded €13 million for the ODIN project, which will explore the use of robots and artificial intelligence to help ease the pressures on hospitals, which will be crucial also in the recovery of Covid-19 and to help any other future disasters.

The ÌÇÐÄTV racing team usually spend their summer in the workshop building an electric race car, but lockdown this year due to the covid-19 pandemic didn't stop them from designing and virtually validating a second electric car, WRe2, and racing their original car WRe1 virtually.

ÌÇÐÄTV Acoustics Ltd, a spin-out company from the University of ÌÇÐÄTV’s School of Engineering, is a manufacturer of next generation audio systems for the automotive sector and personal use, and thanks to a grant from Innovate UK, will support development of a lower cost version of its patented ElectroAcoustics Audio Panels for next generation vehicles.

ÌÇÐÄTV Moto team, consisting of 25 ÌÇÐÄTV students aren’t letting the pandemic get in the way of designing, building and developing the electric superbike, as they’re doing it virtually from home.

It was announced in May last year (2019) that the University of ÌÇÐÄTV has won the bid to plan, organise and host the 18th International Conference of Women Engineers and Scientists (ICWES18) for September 2020, however due to the current COViD-19 pandemic the event has been pushed back to 2021.

The conference was previously held at ÌÇÐÄTV (ICWES9) in 1991, ICWES18 will now return to ÌÇÐÄTV on 1-4 September 2021.

ÌÇÐÄTV Moto team have unveiled the plans for how their electric superbike, called Aurora will look when she’s ready to race.
