Dust on solar panels can reduce energy output by up to 25% in desert regions and up to 100% during dust storm events. Our patent-pending, waterless self-cleaning technology removes dust from solar panels and regains up to 95% of lost energy. The R&D 100 and DOE Solar Prize awards winning technology is based on proprietary electrodes that generate electric fields to sweep away dust from solar panels.

eWitness uses blockchain to establish provenance of images and videos taken from a smart phone camera. eWitness can be used to gather evidence of crime, human rights violation, domestic violence, corruption, traffic violations and more. An eWitness user is protected behind a pseudo-identity which is hidden even from the eWitness backend, until the user is ready to reveal themselves or to quietly pass the evidence on to their case-worker, trusted friend or sponsor. The purpose of eWitness is to create images and videos that can be trusted. The technology behind eWitness, provides the proof of location and time the media was taken and the proof that the media was not altered to misinform or deform the fact in any manner.

Endotope is a virtual startup developing a nucleic acid-based vaccine that desensitizes T cells to the epitopes they are reactive to and skews them to a non-responsive state or to a regulatory function. This treatment approach, developed in Dr. Remi Creusot’s lab, could be beneficial for autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, lupus, psoriasis, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis, but the company’s initial focus is treating patients with T1D. T1D affects an estimated 38.7 million people worldwide and the incidence is increasing by ~3% each year, yet there are no available treatments that target the underlying cause of the disease. Preclinical studies in mice indicate that Endotope treatment can delay the onset of diabetes and reduce the incidence.
