Liquid-X Anti-Microbial Coating for Heath $ Wellness Applications
Potential Applications:
- Anti-Microbial Wipes for the Face Shields
- Print mesh of particle free Silver and Copper to further act as shield against germs.
Liquid X’s proprietary, particle-free silver ink is utilized to conformally coat thin, breathable 
nonwoven fabrics and papers as an antimicrobial technology that can be integrated into negative pressure masks.
Advantages:
1. Silver has known antimicrobial properties
2. Insert in mask provides added layer of defense to minimize spread of pathogen
3. Liquid X particle-free silver ink enables durable and conformal coating on fabric.
4. Limited impact on breathability
5. Additive manufacturing techniques for high volume production

Jaguar, BMW and Porsche unveil New Seating Solutions
- Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has revealed a new shape-shifting seating system uses a series of actuators in the seat foam to make constant micro-adjustments to the seating position.
- Porsche has announced that it will use 3D printing wherecentral section of the seat. Seat and backrest cushions – will be partly produced by a 3D-printer to create driver-specific seats.
- BMW will offer fully personalized recline and relax experience in a BMW model when it goes into series production in the next few years. The seat can be tilted back by 40° or 60° into a comfortable reclined position. It features a holder with an inductive charging facility for smartphones.
Smart Steering Wheel
The Origo Steering Wheel concept is designed to improve safety by reducing driver distraction with intuitive controls adapted from mobile device user experiences. The new Origo Steering Wheel Concept improves the way a driver accesses information, and controls non-driving functions, in the vehicle with intuitive thumb controls accessible with a safe hands-on-wheel driving position.
Relevant information is presented in each situation, ensuring the driver can focus on the primary task: safe driving. The new Origo Steering Wheel Concept replaces multiple mechanical controls in different locations with novel, 3-dimensional touch sensors that are integrated in the steering wheel and easily operated by thumb, providing a natural, smartphone-like interaction.
The Origo Steering Wheel concept has been co-created by Canatu, Siili Auto, Rightware and TactoTek®, each bringing their unique expertise to the project:
Canatu provides its fully transparent Carbon NanoBud (CNB) film -based touch sensors that are integrated into the steering wheel. CNB sensors can be formed and moulded into any shape providing design-freedom and great user experience.
Siili Auto designs and implements User Interface (UI) of the smart steering wheel. UI and the 
steering wheel physical form and innovate controls are seamlessly integrated to a unique user experience.
Rightware is providing its market-leading HMI software tools including Kanzi UI, Kanzi Connect, and Kanzi Maps to enable rapid design, prototyping, and development of intuitive interaction models for this new concept.
TactoTek® applies its Injection Molded Structural Electronics (IMSE™) technology to design and produce smart surfaces that include circuitry, touch controls and illumination in 3D injection molded designs.
