Researchers from INAC, Leti, and IRTSV recently completed the first-ever successful analysis of neutral particles by mass spectrometry. The scientific achievement, which took place right here in Grenoble, was praised by an article in Nature Communications. The researchers chose to bypass traditional spectrometry methods, preferring to use nano-electromechanical systems (NEMS), whose resonance frequency varies depending […] >>

Phelma student Florian Castellane is crazy about robotics. Last year, he decided to take a gap year in Japan, where he spent time at a signal-processing lab at Tokohu University in northeastern Honshu. He is currently working on his culminating project on reconstructing 3D scenes from video at Japan’s National Institute of Informatics in Tokyo. […] >>

The City of Grenoble tested a more environmentally-friendly deicing method this winter, using a sodium-chloride-free product, DéneigeVert , manufactured by Selvert, a local startup founded in 2012 by Enseeg (now Phelma) alumnus Guy Baret. This winter’s measurements were skewed by the wildly fluctuating temperatures, so an additional measurement campaign will likely take place in winter […] >>
