Traditionally, Design for Manufacturing (DFM) feedback is provided late in the product development cycle, often resulting in costly redesigns, production delays, and missed opportunities for optimization. This invention introduces an AI-powered companion that delivers real-time DFM feedback early in the design and demand fulfillment process. By automatically analyzing CAD models and design parameters, it identifies features that may pose manufacturing challenges and offers actionable suggestions to improve feasibility and reduce costs. The AI companion empowers users to make informed design decisions without waiting for manual reviews or relying solely on in-house manufacturing experts. In additional, traditional quoting methods are labor intensive and inaccurate, requiring engineers to analyze technical drawings, assess material and process requirements, and estimate costs based on historical data or supplier inputs. This delays customer responses and increases operational overhead. The proposed technology leverages AI to automatically interpret design files (e.g., CAD or technical drawings), extract key manufacturing features, and generate instant, data driven price estimates.  The technology owner is seeking potential users of this AI module to tailor it to specific industries, applications, and business processes. Target users include precision engineering firms, job shops and manufacturers. The solution can enable businesses to respond faster to customer inquiries, reduce quoting costs, reduce design for manufacturing leadtime and win more business.  

Platinum group metals (PGMs) are critical raw materials essential in diverse industries, including automotive catalytic converters, jewelry, glassware, petrochemical refining, electronics, and healthcare sectors like pharmaceuticals and dental implants. Primarily sourced through the mining of PGM ores, they constitute about 70% of the global PGM supply, with South Africa and Russia accounting for 85% of this production. This concentration in supply can lead to price gouging and market monopoly. Recycling PGMs from waste not only mitigates the supply shortfall but also reduces environmental impacts compared to mining. However, conventional recycling methods are energy-intensive, requiring temperatures around 1500°C, and involve costly downstream processing to treat waste. Furthermore, the high processing temperatures result in high-value raw materials being burnt and releasing harmful toxins. The technology owner has developed a novel biorecovery method that incorporates and modifies a series of biochemical and biological processes into a streamlined 3-stage process as opposed to the multi-tiered stages of current conventional methods used in industry. It offers the following advantages over the competition: Energy Efficiency: consumes 6x less energy than traditional methods Cost Effective: 3x cheaper in operation cost High Yield: capable of recovering multiple PGM simultaneously with high yield even from low-grade waste Sustainability: support company decarbonization goals by offering a truly green and sustainable recycling manner for spent catalyst

With the integration of monitoring electronics into our everyday lifestyle, such as wearables, the utilisation of flexible electronics becomes more apparent as users demand them to not impede into their daily activities while being operational due to their ability to be deployed in areas with mechanical motion. Conventional flexible printed circuits (FPC), due to use of non-stretchable substrates, struggle under various constant deformation, resulting in poor adhesion, poor electrical contact and even pressure points which potentially limits normal operation. With discomfort and limitation on their motions, users are also less inclined to adopt these wearable solutions. The technology owner has leveraged on their expertise in stretchable substrates and conductive ink to develop a stretchable printed circuit (SPC), which have the ability to maintain contact and performance comparable to a rigid printed circuit under repeated deformation, such as stretching and twisting. The developed SPC enables existing electrical and semiconductor components to be mounted, eliminating any need for proprietary electrical components, while fully operational under external environmental conditions. The technology excels in larger surface application with semi-disposability in mind while having good adhesion and comfortable on skin. The technology owner is currently seeking industrial collaborators looking to explore use-cases, such as medical equipment development and diagnostic devices, whereby electrical performance can be maintained while providing mechanical flexibility.

According to the Health Promotion Board (HPB) in Singapore, 90% of Singapore residents' consumption of sodium exceeds the daily recommended intake, with the average consumption at 3620 mg, nearly double of the recommended 2000 mg per day. As a result, one in six Singapore residents report health problems like hypertension and hypolipidaemia. In an effort to curb this, HPB launched the "Less Salt, More Taste" campaign in 2024 to encourage the food manufacturing and food service industry to change their recipes and add less salt and sauces, or switch to use lower-sodium alternatives for salt, sauces and seasonings. Manufacturers are also encouraged to increase the supply of lower-sodium ingredients for the food service sector. Consumers are also encouraged to choose low sodium options, or use less salt in their home cooking. This sodium reduction strategy aims to reduce Singaporeans’ sodium intake by 15% by 2026.
