Project <strong>Summary</strong><br />

RMIT University<br />

While we still connect with the world through our senses, these are increasingly being mediated by the electronic<br />

gadgets we carry and the complex systems we interact with. This project will result in new ways to acquire events<br />

in the real world, process and transfer information over networks to simplify and enhance our experience <strong>of</strong> the<br />

world.<br />

Administering Organisation<br />

Project <strong>Summary</strong><br />

RMIT University<br />

This project proposes to do away with conventional batteries for powering portable or wearable devices by<br />

developing wearable fabrics capable <strong>of</strong> energy generation. The outcome will be a robust fabric with the capability <strong>of</strong><br />

powering wearable or portable devices in the communications, health-care, sports and defence industries.<br />

Administering Organisation<br />

Project <strong>Summary</strong><br />

RMIT University<br />

This project investigates building <strong>of</strong> modules for an intelligent Toy which can be customised and adapted over time<br />

by add-on modules. Intelligent interactive toys are growing in popularity, and the ability for such a toy to develop<br />

over a prolonged lifetime, is both a sound business idea and a mechanism for extending the useful life <strong>of</strong> the Toy.<br />

Australian Science and Management Academy Pty Ltd<br />

Administering Organisation<br />

Project <strong>Summary</strong><br />

RMIT University<br />

The security <strong>of</strong> SCADA systems has enormous impact to our national security and economy because they control<br />

and monitor critical infrastructure, like power, gas and water facilities and nuclear power plants, etc. This project<br />

aims to investigate the security issues and provide innovative technological solutions to detect and prevent such<br />

problems.<br />
