“See a need, Fill a need” Wedge et al. (Robots 20th Century Fox, [1]) though these words can aptly sum up an entrepreneurial spirit, they are also a potentially good attitude for finding relevant solutions to global environmental issues. The important question that arises is how the need is filled? Long term, sustainable and creative solutions are required to reduce the impact of the human footprint. A multidisciplinary approach has great potential, as it is capable of combining a variety of domains and enriching the knowledge base. This paper will discuss a smart parking project to address the issues of carbon emissions, time management and congestion in cities whilst the 2nd project portrays a new approach to interacting and designing computers inspired by efficient biological systems. |
