Technologies focused on enhancing the stability, efficacy, spread, or targeted application of biocidal active ingredients through specialized carriers, adjuvants, encapsulation, or physical forms (e.g., gels, spray-dried particles).
Systems and mechanisms that allow autonomous cleaning robots or devices to return to a base station for automated tasks such as mop washing, dustbin emptying, fluid replenishment, or cleaning of tool heads without human intervention.
Design and material innovations for specific cleaning components or attachments, such as brush rolls, mop pads, scrapers, or multi-functional surface tools. These are often tailored for particular surfaces, debris types, or cleaning tasks to enhance effectiveness.
Innovations in vacuum cleaner components and systems for efficiently separating, compacting, and containing collected dust, dirt, or lint. This often involves multi-stage filtration, cyclonic separation, or specialized disposal mechanisms to improve air quality and ease of maintenance.
Innovation in chemical compounds or optimized formulations specifically designed to control or inhibit the growth of unwanted plants (weeds) in agricultural settings, often with improved selectivity or reduced environmental impact.
Mechanisms allowing rapid, secure, and often sealed attachment and detachment of pipes, tubes, or hoses, frequently featuring locking, sealing, and release components for efficient assembly and maintenance.
Technologies enabling autonomous cleaning robots to perceive their environment, create maps, localize themselves within those maps, and plan efficient cleaning paths in dynamic spaces. This includes sensor integration, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms, and adaptive mapping techniques.
Methods and components for converting power into mechanical motion to drive pump mechanisms, encompassing electric motors, hydraulic actuators, and specialized motion converters like ball screws or solenoids.
Techniques and systems for optimizing pump operation, including capacity modulation, energy management, pulsation reduction, and precise fluid dispensing to improve performance and reduce energy consumption.
Algorithms and systems for generating, optimizing, and executing trajectories for autonomous vehicles or robots to move through an environment, often involving obstacle avoidance, route validation, and goal reaching.
Techniques and hardware for autonomous systems to gather and interpret data about their surroundings, including obstacle detection, object recognition, and depth estimation, to inform control decisions.
Integration of robotics, sensors, and control systems to automate the grinding, polishing, or deburring process, including workpiece handling, tool adjustment, and system maintenance for improved efficiency and precision.
Methods and apparatus for cleaning polishing pads, dressers, chamber components, or finished substrates to remove residues, debris, or contaminants, often involving specialized nozzles, fluids, or mechanical actions.
Design features and accessories that improve the installation, storage, usability, and overall user experience of household cleaning appliances and manual tools. This includes mounting brackets, ergonomic handles, and integrated storage solutions.
Development and application of living organisms (e.g., bacteria, fungi, viruses) or their natural derivatives (e.g., peptides, plant extracts) as agents to suppress or eliminate agricultural pests, weeds, or plant diseases.
Couplings and fittings designed for specific fluid properties (e.g., cryogenic, chemical, medical, high-pressure) or requiring aseptic conditions, low-spill characteristics, or antimicrobial features to ensure safety and integrity.
Design and engineering solutions for creating self-contained, mobile, or miniaturized pump systems, often incorporating battery power, ergonomic features, and integrated components for ease of use and transport.
Systems and materials designed for purifying biological fluids (like blood) or capturing airborne particles (like respiratory droplets) using membranes, filters, or specialized coatings.
Methods and apparatus for disinfecting or sterilizing medical devices, waste, or environments, often employing radiation, chemical agents, or thermal processes, and including monitoring systems.
Self-contained or modular devices designed to automate and integrate multiple steps of molecular diagnostic assays, from sample preparation to result interpretation, often for point-of-care or high-throughput applications.
Membrane-based separation for water purification, contaminant removal, desalination, and wastewater treatment, including reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, and forward osmosis modules.
