AgroScan, un programa de emprendimiento coworking conformado por estudiantes de la sede Quito, gana el concurso de emprendimiento e innovación del consorcio Innobis Ecuador.

Cerca de 200 proyectos se presentaron en el centro de emprendimientos: 90 fueron seleccionados para concursar y solo 10 accedieron a la fase final donde AGROSCAN ganó el primer lugar, resaltando el proceso de emprendimiento realizado en el Coworking UPS.

AgroScan presentó un drone que captura fotografías tomadas con cámaras multiespectrales instaladas en el ala fija. El drone que sobrevuela las plantaciones de cualquier cultivo ayuda a detectar, resolver y dar soluciones a problemas de los cultivos como el estrés, distribución hídrica, plagas, coordenadas de áreas de fumigación etc.

El proyecto se desarrolló sobre seis áreas de investigación:

Desarrollo aerodinámico y materiales
Diseño electrónico e inteligencia artificial
Desarrollo de telemetría y video en vivio
Desarrollo de software de estación en tierra
Investigación de cámaras multiespectrales e infrarrojos
Investigación de agricultura de precisión

Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Pages 11590: Revolutionizing Concrete Bridge Assessment: Implementing Nondestructive Scanning for Transformative Evaluation 12 diciembre, 2024
This study focused on analyzing the impact of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) scan spacing on accurately assessing the reinforcement of concrete bridge girders, providing practical insights. A decommissioned bridge box beam was evaluated to unveil rebars and tendons’ depth and spacing. The box beam was decommissioned from the West Virginia Division of Highways inventory. An innovative […]

Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Pages 11523: On Transient Stability Problems in DC Microgrids 11 diciembre, 2024
Transient stability, i.e., the ability of power systems to maintain synchronism when subjected to a severe disturbance, has extensively been investigated in AC grids. This article reveals that similar transient stability problems (but with different features) also exist in DC microgrids, as caused by the violation of power-transfer limitations between DC generators and grids. Through […]

More than 80% of open-pit coal mines in China are located in northern regions, and the mechanical properties and stability of loose soil–rock mixtures in waste disposal sites are significantly affected by freeze–thaw effects. This article takes the external dumping site of the Baorixile open-pit coal mine in the northern high-altitude region of the Inner […]

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 5856: A Simple Surface Treatment for Improving the Adhesive Bonding Properties and Durability of an AlMg3 Alloy 12 diciembre, 2024
The structural adhesive bonding of aluminum is widely used in the aircraft and automotive industries. The surface preparation of aluminum prior to adhesive bonding plays a significant role in improving the bonding strength. Surface cleanliness, surface roughness, and surface chemistry can be controlled, primarily, by proper surface treatment methods. In this study, the effect of […]

The bromoil process, developed in 1907, was a photographic technique highly esteemed by pictorialist photographers for its capacity for image manipulation, which aligns its expressiveness with traditional pictorial techniques. Despite the artistic and technical value of bromoils and their prevalence in renowned collections, there is little research on their composition and structural characteristics. This study […]

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 5855: Nanotechnology-Based Strategies for Safe and Effective Immunotherapy 11 diciembre, 2024
Cancer immunotherapy using immune checkpoint blockades has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach. However, immunotherapy faces challenges such as low response rates in solid tumors, necessitating strategies to remodel the immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) into an immune-activated state. One of the primary approaches to achieve this transformation is through the induction of immunogenic cell death […]
