UAE University Showcases Leading Scientific Projects

UAE University Showcases Leading Scientific Projects at "Made in the UAE"

The United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) platform witnessed a remarkable presence at the fifth edition of "Made in the UAE 2026," the largest industrial platform aimed at strengthening the UAE's position as a global hub for advanced technology and sustainability.

During its participation, the university showcased 12 scientific and innovative projects that reflect the depth of its research capabilities in the fields of artificial intelligence, energy, medical technologies, and sustainable industrial solutions.

The university's platform featured a wide variety of projects, with students and researchers from the College of Information Technology standing out with pioneering projects based on artificial intelligence and virtual reality.

These included the "Agri-Sensei" platform, designed to accurately analyze and diagnose plant diseases using computer vision to support food security, as well as the "GaussReality" project, an advanced digital platform for 3D digital twinning of buildings, enabling interactive online viewing and analysis.

Within the framework of integrated engineering solutions, the College of Engineering presented a range of patented innovations. The Chemical Engineering Department showcased a hybrid reactor for treating brine and capturing carbon dioxide, converting it into reusable solids, and the PROiL project, which develops solutions for recovering oil spills using nanofibers made from plastic waste.

The Electrical Engineering Department presented a smart system for monitoring blood glucose levels using wearable devices without the need for finger pricks, and another system for monitoring energy quality and consumption via the web with real-time, interactive data.

In the field of energy and sustainability, the Mechanical Engineering Department presented the CoolVolts project for cooling solar panels using water evaporation to increase energy production efficiency, while the Architecture Department presented sustainable interior design solutions using 3D printing, along with a smart therapeutic system that allows safe indoor sun exposure to promote overall health and vitamin D production.

Students and researchers from the College of Science showcased their innovative scientific projects. The Chemistry Department presented "AlphaHelixTwister.AI," a project utilizing artificial intelligence to design proteins and antiviral agents, and another project to utilize palm waste in the production of activated carbon for manufacturing sustainable metal batteries.

Students and researchers from the Mathematics Department presented "AssetGuard Systems," an Internet of Things-based project that represents a breakthrough in proactive maintenance through early prediction of malfunctions in major industrial sectors such as oil and gas and water desalination.

This participation underscores the UAE University's leadership in developing practical solutions that address global challenges and support the nation's strategic vision for a sustainable industrial future based on advanced technology and knowledge.
