Next generation piezoresistive sensors presented at TechConnect

On February 15, Prof. Christoph Renner’s IP Submission entitled “Piezo-pinch – next generation piezoresistive sensors” was accepted for presentation at the TechConnect (www.techconnect.org) meeting in May.

The venue will take place at the George R. Brown Convention Center, Houston, Texas.

This is an encouraging result for his technology, which should provide excellent opportunities for promotion. MaNEP is mainly looking for an industrial partner to develop this technology into marketable products. The main fields of interest are atomic force microscopy, biomedical assays and micro- and nano- balances.

Piezo-pinch comprises three inventing contributors: CNRS, Ecole Polytechnique and UniGE/ MaNEP.
