Mobile Augmented Reality Instructional Manuals (MARIM)
MARIM is a practical system which uses mobile devices for interactive manuals. The system utilizes AR Technology to provide visual instructions overlaid in the real environment for the trainee. The trainer is allowed to create these AR instructions
using the editor provided by the application. Images are captured by using phones/tablets and provide visual instructions such as interest regions, text, and action animations. The system also utilizes the existing object detection and
tracking algorithms to identify the step scene and retrieve the respective instruction to be displayed on the mobile device.

Hydrating Cream
Hydration plays an important role in maintaining the metabolism, enzyme activity, mechanical properties, appearance and barrier function of the skin.
Singapore has a tropical climate that prevails throughout the year. Battling with the constant switch between high humidity, hot outdoor weather and dry in-door cold air-conditioning environment decreases the skin response to external changes.
Hence, decreases the hydration level in skin attributing to the overall skin barrier recovery to delay, and premature aging. In our research work, a formula of moisture cream is developed.

Nano Glass Coating for Energy Saving Applications
The invention is a nano glass coating which can be applied directly onto glass panels, and can be used on glass surfaces with complex shapes. The coating is able to reject
more than 90% of Ultraviolet radiation and Infra-Red radiation above 1400nm wavelength while allowing the transmission of at least 60% of the visible light to be transmitted through. This allows the reduction of the total solar energy
transmission by more than 50% as compared to untreated clear glass, and an additional 8% reduction when compared to commercially available solar films.

Rapid Diagnosis of Dengue Infections
We have developed a platform technology using Carbon Nanotube (CNTs)–based labels as a POC diagnostic tool for dengue infections. Since their discovery,
CNTs have been of great interest for a wide range of applications, including diagnostics. This approach has good potential as a platform technology for rapid, sensitive and low-cost POC diagnosis of infectious diseases.

Anti-Chafing Cream
Chafing is skin irritation that occurs where skin rubs against skin, clothing, shoes, or other materials. Chafing sometimes refers to red, sore skin that has been irritated by something rubbing against
it. Our special formula creates a smooth velvet surface for protection purpose and effective in preventing the chafing problem. For existing condition, it would also temporarily lessen the irritation. Anti-chafing cream is available in
cream formulas. Ideal for use every day.

A Tremor Compensation Device
This invention relates to a handheld or portable device that can compensate for involuntary hand tremor. The device will 1) detect its own motion, 2) distinguish between the intended motion
and the tremor, and 3) compensate for the tremor of the tip of the tool (such as a soldering iron, and a writing utensil) attached to the hand-held device. It allows a user with involuntary hand tremor to engage in such as writing, drawing
and soldering.

Active-assisted Arm Brace
This invention relates to a device that is designed to assist with upper limb rehabilitation, and allows the clinician to diagnose and make objective assessment on the rehabilitation progress.
The device utilizes biofeedback and intelligent controls to help patients undergo both assisted and passive muscle stretching, and allows clinicians to make objective assessment of each therapy session by providing real-time diagnostic
information. The invention has potential to be adapted for home-based upper limb rehabilitation usage.
