Through the years, NUS has been working closely with its industry partners either by licensing University-generated technology to them, or through research collaborations. And more recently, NUS has spun-off a number of companies utilising NUS technologies. Read more about our success partnerships.

FRONTIER HUMAN INTERFACE TECHNOLOGY FOR SPIN-OFF

Mixed Reality, a subset of Human Interface Technology, relates to a new form of gaming that anchors on physical, mobility, social interaction, and ubiquitous computing.

Designed by Dr. Adrian David Cheok and his team from NUS, the technology provides the full spectrum of game interaction experiences, ranging from the real physical environment to augmented reality in a virtual environment. It also allows seamless communication between the environments, such that tangible interactions can take place between players and virtual objects, and other collaborations between players in different levels of reality.


eZ PARTNERSHIP WITH NUS

The Anti-sway Crane technology is the result of a successful collaboration in research between the company, eZ Crane & Design Pte Ltd, and Associate Professor Ong Chong Jin of the Department of Mechanical & Production Engineering in NUS.

CURE FOR DIABETES THROUGH ADULT STEM CELL RESEARCH

ILO facilitated and managed the agreement that was signed between the NUS Department of Surgery and Stem Cell Technologies (i) Pte Ltd to jointly collaborate on research to find a cure for diabetes through adult stem cells.

 

GROUND-BREAKING NUS TECHNOLOGY FOR US MARKETS

A new drug with a novel mechanism of preventing restenosis was discovered by Associate Professor Sim Meng Kwoon of the National University of Singapore’s Pharmacology Department. The drug des-aspartate-angiotensin I (DAA-I) acts on a specific receptor, which is coupled to a specific prostaglandin pathway, to suppress clot formation. In this way, secondary or adverse effects have not been encountered with DAA-I.
