TULE, Future Electronics Research Programme
The objective of the Future
Electronics Research Programme (TULE, 2003-2006) is to promote
long-term and high-level basic research leading to new innovative
applications and to support the ongoing research and development
efforts in Finland. A goal is to strengthen the scientific
know-how in the fields that are important to the present and
future development of the Finnish electronics industry, and to
educate skilled workforce required to growth. In the international
level a programme-based co-operation is targeted both in the
European and wider field.
TULE programme is composed of 13 research projects (of those 12
consortia) that include altogether 56 projects in the research
groups level. The programme has a strong thematic area in the
future materials. Other thematic areas are integrated systems,
efficient algorithmic solutions, and multidisciplinary
applications. TULE continues thematically our previous research
programme Electronic Materials and Microsystems (EMMA, 1999-2002).
The total funding volume of the research programme of Future
Electronics is EUR 6,75 million.
Project ”Wireless physiological sensors
for ambulatory and implantable applications”
The aim of this project is to study and develop wireless sensor
technology for ambulatory and implantable human
psychophysiological applications. The wireless sensors will be
demonstrated in certain soft and hard tissue implant applications
such as implantable electrodes for detection of cardiac state and
bone implant monitoring.
