Charles University Innovations Prague a.s.

Product design is an industry where designers and engineers often rely on physical prototypes. Trends in recent years show that 3D printers are increasingly being used for these needs, producing far more faithful 3D models than hand-painted models. But it’s not just the shape that matters, the colours are also crucial. Additive Appearance, led by experts from the Charles University Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, offers unique software for high-quality appearance processing using 3D printers. Higher colour rendering of models and realistic prints will ensure better prototypes without the need to print expensive samples.

In situations where machine translation is not enough, Tap2U allows people from all over the world to help each other translate the written and spoken word. Each text translated by the community is also rated and corrected by other users in the app. The project was initiated by a student and teacher at the Faculty of Arts of Charles University and aims to help Czech authorities and organizations.

Charles University Information Technologies s.r.o. provides complete services and consulting in the area of semantic data modeling and data processing setup. According to the client’s requirements, CUIT designs, develops, integrates and secures the subsequent operation of the software systems, including the implementation of new data processes into the client’s existing systems. As part of the consultancy, CUIT also offers training on data management, modelling and data exchange topics. The services are carried out by top engineers from the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Charles University.

FutureBooks, s.r.o., is one of the first truly humanistic spin-off companies in the Czech Republic. It builds on the expertise of the Faculty of Education of Charles University and responds to the growing needs of modern education in the digital era. FutureBooks offers teachers and their students a wide range of possibilities for collaborative creation, publication and distribution of interactive learning materials and books.

Historically, Genespector Innovations s.r.o. and Genespector s.r.o. operated separately, but in 2023 the two companies merged and today operate under the name Genespector s.r.o. The goal of GeneSpector Innovations s.r.o. has been, and in its new form continues to be, the development of new diagnostic approaches that can help in the long term, not just during a pandemic.

Charles Games s.r.o. was established to accelerate the commercialisation activities of the independent working group Charles Games and to provide extended support to Charles University students. It has published, among others, the award-winning historical games Attentat 1942 and Svoboda 1945: Liberation built on its own Charles Engine.

GeneSpector provides a unique solution for rapid detection of Covid-19 and other viral diseases. Compared to competitors, it focuses on the entire diagnostic workflow, allowing implementation in all types of laboratories. The transport reagent from the research team of Prof. Stanislav Kmoch from the 1st Medical Faculty of Charles University plays a key role in the sampling kits.

Scientists from the 1st Faculty of Medicine of Charles University and the Czech Technical University, working as a team at the Albertov Research Centre, have developed a system that will allow patients to rehabilitate in their home environment without having to necessarily go to an clinic. Flexicare s.r.o. provides know-how and licenses in the field of telemedicine technologies.

VDI Monitor is a technology originating from the Third Faculty of Medicine of Charles University, from doc. Karol Čuril. The monitor measures and evaluates high-frequency ECG signals, thus improving the quality of medical care for patients with cardiac disorders. It is in the experimental phase with CE certification and is currently being tested, for example, at St. Anne’s University Hospital in Brno.
