Ongoing R&D projects
MASTER
Multipurpose Airship in Stratosphere for Telecommunications, Environmental-monitoring and Reconnaissance. Derived from di Eu project MAAT (Grant ID 285602) this high altitude platform, a future product of RIXItalia, could be used in telecommunication, wildfire prevention, border control, etc. Through optical, infrared detection or multispectral and radar systems, it can guarantees constant and effective control 24 hours a day.
Alex4Space
Cristalli Avanzati Laser Alessandrite per Applicazioni Spaziali di alta Potenza
(Advanced alexandrite laser crystals for high power space applications).
Contribution for Sardegna Ricerche.
SAPPHIRE
Study for single-crystal sapphire slices for space and advanced solid-state electronics
Contribution for Sardegna Ricerche in collaboration with Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (DIEE) of University of Cagliari. Project Code: AEROSPAZIO-25
Ophthalmic research
Prototyping of ophthalmic lens for post-cataracts surgery (partners: AILUN and POEMA).
Recycling research
Shaping leftover crystal pieces, too small for laser application, into jewels.
