O – WEC – 1 er et energiprojekt, der vil ramme fremtidens behov for grøn, vedvarende energi samt en diversificering til det eksisterende elnet. O-WEC–1 (Ocean Wave Energy Conventer) bruger bølgernes ændring af amplitude til at flytte indre væske gennem en vandturbine og på den måde skabe energi. Den øgede elektrificering vil kræve, at vi konstant bevæger os fremad, og behovet for grøn energi bliver vigtigere og vigtigere. Bølgerne kan træde ind og mindske perioden, hvor vind- og solenergi ikke kan dække nettet. O-WEC-1 er et produkt, der kan fremstilles i Europa og Danmark, og det vurderes, at der er mulighed for op mod 10.000 arbejdspladser, og kan være med til at holde Danmark i den grønne førertrøje. Det vil være på et globalt marked med enormt potentiale. Særligt nu hvor ”not in my backyard” er begyndt at gøre sig gældende for solceller og vindmøller. O-WEC-1 er placeret meget lavt og offshore, så de skjules af jordens krumning. Innofounders hjælp til realisering vil ligge blandt andet i planlægningen for udviklingen af virksomheden gennem rådgivning. Udfoldelsen af forskellige spor vil være vejen til en fungerende virksomhed. Bølgeenergi har mange vidensområder, der skal samles for at kunne nå til drømmen om et større offshore anlæg. Når virksomheden dertil, vil den kunne stå som bannerfører for den danske grønne udvikling, og viderefører noget af det Danmark i forvejen står for.

Denmark has paved urban land, roughly equal to the island of Fyn, and although the lawns have spurred an exponentially growing market for the robotic lawnmowers, no similar solution currently exists for autonomous maintenance of paved areas. O-Robotics has a mission to develop a multipurpose Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) to sustainably tackle exactly the paved land in our cities, the AMR-Sweeper. The concept of the AMR-Sweeper mimics that of the most state-of-the-art robot lawnmowers utilizing Satellite Navigation and Machine Vision to safely navigate the dynamic urban environment. The typical maintenance needs for urban paved areas spans from dirt removal to weed control and snow/ice removal. This must be done across our entire society and thus this problem adheres to all customer segments, B2C, B2B and B2G. The main operational areas intended with the AMR-Sweeper are those serviced by the professional B2B sector, such as professional gardeners, groundskeepers, facility management and industrial facilities with large outdoor areas. Similar large B2G areas such as hospitals, universities, elder homes, municipalities, open military facilities, and highway rest stops and many more.

The game changing solution we have developed is a single use medical adhesive device classified 1, that support midwives or health workers efforts in protecting the vulnerable area and reducing birth ruptures. Today there are more than 93 million women globally who experience birth ruptures. 110.000 women die of complication as ruptures and infections every single year. This problem goes beyond developing countries, in Denmark, 90% of first-time childbirths will lead to ruptures. These complications cost the Danish government DKK 400 million each year in hospital care alone. Aftercare from side effects and further complications are not included in this cost. On average, this accounts for DKK 6.000 pr. ruptured women yearly. Why is this? it is challenging protecting vulnerable areas at all times during a labor. We have submitted a international patent 05.01.23 with AWA. Midwives have validated our device as they have confirmed that the functionality should solve their observed challenges and problems connected with childbirth. We are looking at an annual market potential of more than DKK 32 BIL by selling single use devices, protecting 130 million child births every year. Since november, we have also been part of Nordic Health Lab, where we are able to test in a danish maternity ward in spring. The investment make it possible for the team to work full time on developing the device, get it ready to test in hospitals and ready for production set-up.

Every year, hundreds of people die at sea because of vessel or aircraft accidents. While some technological innovations within Maritime Search and Rescue (SAR) have been implemented, the users/operators have identified a gap in their equipment/procedures that needs to be closed. The OASAR project will enable the application of a holistic approach towards Planning (pre- and in-flight) and Search for a wider SAR strategy. The OASAR solution is formed by a multiple system with 2 main enabling technologies: i) a breakthrough high resolution sensor suite enabling large area coverage per flying hour: ii) Artificial Intelligence to take full advantage of the sensor and platform capabilities. OASAR’s main goal is to increase the survivability rate up to 50% and to reduce the resources (time, money, fuel) consumption up to 66%. This will be achieved by i) increasing the probability of detection and decreasing the time needed to detection (by accurately defining a “smaller high probability area”): ii) increasing the coverage area per time: and iii) having an innovative set of sensors assisting the Search. The project will deliver a demonstrated solution and reach a major value inflexion point (TRL6). Partners within this OASAR Project will benefit by exploiting the solution´s commercial potential (TERMA), increasing R&D research in the general SAR field (AAU), whereas first potential customers will benefit of such an innovative approach as early adopters/pioneers (i.e., DALO).

Oase er en ny digital platform, der gør det nemt for mennesker at organisere og engagere sig i deres fællesskaber – uden reklamer, algoritmer eller opmærksomhedsdrænende funktioner. Platformen er et alternativ til sociale medier som Facebook og Snapchat, som i dag udgør rygraden i alt fra klassechats til foreningsliv, på trods af deres kendte negative konsekvenser for trivsel og sammenhængskraft. Markedet for ansvarlige digitale løsninger er voksende – både blandt forældre, foreninger, skoler og kommuner, som efterspørger trygge, danske alternativer til de globale techgiganter. Med støtte fra Innovationsfonden kan Oase accelerere udviklingen af sin platform og gøre den tilgængelig for endnu flere brugere. Investeringen gør det muligt at skalere både teknisk og organisatorisk, så vi kan tilbyde en bæredygtig digital infrastruktur, der styrker fællesskaber i stedet for at splitte dem. På lang sigt ønsker vi at etablere Oase som en samfundsbærende platform for digitalt fællesskab – bygget på nordiske værdier, med respekt for brugernes tid, privatliv og relationer.
