The activity of material synthesis at IMM Rome has two main objectives:

 

CORTICONIC is a European three years project. In particular, CORTICONIC belongs to Research Area: ICT-2011.9.11 FET Proactive; Neuro-Bio-Inspired Systems.

Corticonic, echoing electronics, consists of abstracting salient features of cortical organization for use in the simulation of the cortex executing higher level brain functions. Our final objective is to identify computational principles of the cerebral cortex underlying network dynamic patterns. In our long term vision, interfacing with the brain will take place:

The 35th Workshop on Compound Semiconductor Devices and Integrated Circuits (WOCSDICE 2011) was held in Catania from 29th  May to 1st June, 2011, organized by CNR-IMM.

The aim of the conference was to bring together internationally recognised researchers, young scientists and engineers to present state-of-the-art research findings in the areas of compound semiconductors, devices and integrated circuits.

 

Human gesture monitoring has always been the focus of many academic studies in the biomedical and commercial field.

In recent years, a variety of new touch sensing technologies using different materials and transduction methods have been introduced, giving rise to a series of tremendously improved designs of electronic skins suitable for humanoid robots.
