b'FUTURE UNICORN AWARDThis award is a spotlight on the startups who have the potential to be the next tech giant. In particular,its aimed at companies who go beyond the idea stage and have evidence demonstrating that the restof the world sees value in what they are doing.Sponsored by Arrow ElectronicsArrow Electronics guides innovation forward for over 175,000 leading technology manufacturers andservice providers. With 2019 sales of $29bn, Arrow develops technology solutions that improve businessand daily life.Bar-Ilan University and NanodropsMaking spectacles redundant: A home-use treatment including light-based device and special eye dropsThis treatment includes a home-use portable device and special eye drops, repeated every 2-3 weeks. It projects special patterns on the cornea of the user (the specific pattern is computed after the user inputs into the device his/her refraction) while those patterns ablate only the epitheliam layer of the cornea (unlike in laser surgery, the epithelium layer renews itself every few days). FeTu LimitedThe Positive Displacement Turbine will transcend how we generate, use and recover energy across all platformsFeTus Positive Displacement Turbine seamlessly translate between rotational and volumetric sources, the fundamental principle of all pumps, compressors, expanders and engines. Early development work focused on the compressor application and tests delivered breakthrough results, a 15kW compressor weighing 5kg achieved 7.2:1 pressure ratio at only 1000RPM with +80% thermal efficiency whilst running oil-free. MagwayMagway pipes delivering the future todayCombining tried tested technology and its own international patents, the vehicles fit in small-diameter pipes of only 0.9m with the small size lowering upfront capital investment and impact from a planning perspective. The vehicles are powered by linear motors, which are highly reliable as they contain no moving parts within the drivetrain and have low operating and maintenance costs. NovosoundPushing the Limits of Ultrasound Imaging & MeasurementUnlike conventional ultrasound sensors, this new type of ultrasound sensor is flexible, extreme temperature resistant, lightweight, low profile, compact, and capable of producing high-resolution images. Overcoming one of the biggest challenges in NDT, its flexible phased ultrasound array enables the inspection of curved surfaces and complex geometries in aerospace, automotive, and industrial applications.Vertical Aerospace Vertical Aerospaces air taxi, enabling electric flight for everyoneVerticals innovation is in creating pioneering all-electric, vertical take-off and landing aircraft which can carry up to four passengers and one pilot, travelling speeds of up to 150mph at distances of 100 miles. The aircraft themselves work through battery powered electric motors and distributed propulsion and they will be certified to aerospace standards.eandt.theiet.org/innovation#eandtawards 31'
