Sensor networks for the city – and what comes next?

Sensors measure air quality, traffic volumes and noise levels, providing cities with valuable real-time data for the present and the future. Yet however advanced this infrastructure may be, it has always faced a problem: many of these small devices rely on disposable batteries or complex wiring. This creates costs, increases maintenance requirements and ultimately generates addi-tional electronic waste.

Viral vectors by day, Rhine swimming after work

For Rodrigo Trinca Paulino, going abroad was never just about adding another research experi-ence to his CV. It was about changing perspectives. About becoming an outsider for a while, dis-covering a different culture and realising just how much people have in common, wherever they come from.
