Накратко на български

Цел на проекта

Conventional computing struggles with energy use and scalability at the edge, where sensors must react in real time and power/latency budgets are tight. Existing neuromorphic hardware helps, but many platforms rely on rigid, high-impact fabrication that limits material choices, sustainability, and practical uptake in industry.TetraNET addresses this by developing a reproducible, eco-friendly neuromorphic platform based on zinc-oxide tetrapod networks (ZnO TNs). The core outcome is TRL-3 in-sensor preprocessing—time-domain feature extraction performed inside the sensing substrate—enabling low-power, real-time operation and simpler downstream classifiers.The work plan couples scalable ZnO TN synthesis/functionalisation and plasma-assisted interface control (WP1), comprehensive structural/electronic characterisation and ISO-aligned life-cycle assessment (WP2), multi-scale modelling and operating maps linking materials to device behaviour (WP3), and prototype integration and validation (WP4). WP5 delivers staff exchanges, training, and open science (protocols, datasets, code with DOIs); WP6 ensures effective coordination and risk management.Relevance and uptake are illustrated by two near-term paths: industrial UV processing (e.g., UV printing & packaging, food and beverage sanitation, 3D-printing/UV-curing, medical-device sterilisation) and VOC/ozone pre-screening for cleanrooms and facilities. As an MSCA Staff Exchanges action, TetraNET advances knowledge transfer, researcher skills, open science, and sustainable electronics in line with the work programme.
