Plasmonic Sensors for Biomedical and Infra-Red Detection Application

Objective/Contributions: The project aims at proposing a new Infra-Red sensor design by employing a plasmonic effect. Plasmonic devices have great potential for biomedical applications due to the sensitivity of the localized surface plasmon resonance to the surrounding medium. Therefore, proposed metasurface sensors are tuned for Biomedical applications as medical diagnostic tools. Enhancing

Multi-purposes Reading IoT-based Smart Platform

Objectives/Contributions: The project aims to introduce a solution for a multi-protocol environment. The proposed device that represents the ultimate goal of the project will act as an interpreter between different communication media, representing the project’s main deliverable. Furthermore, we propose to have a smart device to estimate the channel performance and decide the optimum communication

Low-Power Artificial Intelligence Framework for Internet of Things Applications

The Internet of Things (IoT) is penetrating many facets of our daily life with the proliferation of intelligent services and applications empowered by artificial intelligence (AI). Due to the massive scalability of modern IoT networks and increased data privacy, traditional AI algorithms require centralized data collecting and processing, which may not be practical in real-world application

Artificial Intelligence Based Cloud Computing for Autonomous Traffic Management

Automobile-related deaths rank as one of the most common causes of death in many places, particularly developing countries; Egypt loses about 12,000 lives due to road traffic crashes every year. The greatest danger to human beings is not cars but people themselves because cars are not dangerous if driven by care and more attention. Cell phone use, whether by talking on the phone or texting

Pre-emergency Alert IoT System-based on Wearable Devices for Diabetic Patient

According to World Health Organization (WHO), there are more than 400 million diabetic adults worldwide. In Egypt, only there are about 8 million diabetic people, and the diabetes prevalence rate is estimated to be 13.3% by 2025, according to WHO. In most cases, the diabetic person requires regular visits to the hospital for health checks. However, due to the COVID pandemic, it has become risky
Research Project

UK/Egypt Trans-national Education Partnerships Grants

Objective/Contributions: All three partners are strongly interested in the development of TNE in the field of Environmental Management and Sustainability. This is an area of significant global concern and one where mutual collaboration can lead to opportunities for new curricula in the future. However, formal TNE in the short term faces many institutional challenges; therefore our approach is to
Research Project

Unblocking the Equality Pipeline in Mechanical Engineering

This partnership between a globally connected university in Scotland (North Britain), and a new, rapidly-growing and well-respected university in Egypt (North Africa) will focus entirely on empowering women in the area of mechanical engineering. Objective/Contributions: We wish to establish a paradigm for tackling the barriers to gender equality in the “difficult” area of mechanical engineering
Research Project

Turning Shrimp Shells into Eco-friendly Plastic

Egypt produces 20 million tons of solid waste annually, some of which is recycled or buried in landfills, much of which is piled up on roads, in water drains, or may even lie at the bottom of the sea. This is in short the garbage and plastic waste disaster that requires years to decompose under the sun. The results are usually smaller pieces of microplastic particles eaten by fish and marine

Research Project

Next Generation Manufacturing for Sustainable Biomaterial Design

Objective: The objective of the proposed project is to accelerate the path to the industrialization of the sustainable bioplastics developed in the previous research through capacity building for the youth community. This is an efficient way to reduce the production and consumption of non-sustainable plastics and decrease the negative effects of climate change.
