Reduce CO2
This case is the broadest question ever asked to IGOR^AI. How to "reduce CO2" in "industry". We performed this project to provide a high level overview of the ways in which industry can impact their CO2 emissions. A total of 44 solutions are presented ranging from carbon caputure methods to policy & strategy.

Future proofing F1 drivetrains
Formula 1 plans to have a "net-zero carbon footprint by 2030". This case provides an overview of new and innovative ways to power the drive train of racing cars that should help to improve the efficiency and reduce the emissions of the engine. A total of 52 methods ranging from electric drives to alternative fuels were listed, of which 14 were deepened during the second scouting phase.

Find Microsurgical Robots Landscape
In this challenge, we created an overview of surgical robots used for microsurgical procedures. In the first line of scouting a quick overview of the different options available is created – from a commercial and academic background. After a brief scope check-in, the project covered 24 robotic platforms in total (at least on a prototype level), with information on the requirements, TRL and highlights from both science and commercial parties.

Find Weld Evaluation Sensors
In this challenge, IGOR^AI was used to find ways to automate weld inspection and possibly mount these technologies on unmanned areal vehicles (UAV), such as drones. A total of 36 technologies were found of which ten were selected for a deep dive search. These ten most promising technologies were assessed on TRL, speed, compactness and measurement distance.

Functionalisation of cellulose
This project had the aim to list potential methods to improve the properties of cellulose by either biochemical, chemical or mechanical modification of cellulose polymers. By improving the cellulose fibers, new functionalities could potentially be achieved that can improve the barrier properties or structural integrity of cellulose-based packaging materials. 41 approaches where found, of which 10 were outlined in further detail.

BIOMASS DEWATERING TECHNOLOGIES
The Netherlands produces a great variety of heterogenic biobased waste streams (biomass) without creating value out of these streams. Besides being diverse and heterogenic, biomass often contains a large amount of water. The high water content makes transportation of biomass both from an economic and sustainable point of view unattractive. This project provides an overview of dewatering technologies for all sorts of biomass varieties. 44 technologies were listed, of which 11 were deepened.
