| A new spin-off of the UPCT uses artificial intelligence and the internet of things to sensorise the activity of companies that may cause emissions harmful to health | Artificial intelligence and Internet of Things (loT) to measure emissions of particles and gases generated by industries.

This is the main activity of the new technology company created at the UPCT, Qartech Innovations SL, dedicated to custom sensorization.

The spin-off is made up of three professors from the School of Telecommunications Engineering and one former student.Qartech Innovations SL will commercially exploit a patent developed by professors from the Department of Information and Communication Technologies.

The company already has its first customer.

It already has a contract with a multinational firm to deploy its sensorization services.The spin-off can measure and transmit values ??of interest to public health, such as polluting particles, gas concentration and others such as soil moisture.

These services are mainly focused on companies in the industrial and agricultural sectors.To monitor environmental parameters, Qartech has a network of low-cost, small-size meters.

These can transmit data from a distance of 30 kilometers to their LoRa telecommunications antennas, installed in the CEDIT of the UPCT in the Fuente Álamo Technology Park and the one they have in the R + D + i building on the Muralla del Mar Campus.

Modern infrastructure covers the entire countryside of Cartagena and reaches Mazarrón and Pilar de la Horadada. Qartech has been created by the professors of the Telematic Engineering research group Antonio Javier García Sánchez, Joan García Haro and Rafael Asorey Cacheda and by the Telecommunications engineer and PhD from the UPCT Juan Bautista Tomás Gabarrón, a former student with business experience in application development and Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain projects.In the image, from left to right: Juan Bautista Tomás, Antonio Javier García, Rafael Asorey and Joan García Haro.
