6. R&D&I - RESEARCH DIVISIONS
Mechatronics & Robotics
CETRI’s group of M&R is
capable of designing
custom robotics and
mechatronics according to
its clientele needs, as well
as to define the necessary
requirements for off the
self purchases. The
technology advancements
have enabled the
employment of such
systems in extreme
environmental conditions,
under demanding timings,
and in services which
require high accuracy and
repeatability.
Energy & Environment
CETRI group of E&E is
capable of modelling,
designing and
development of innovative
frameworks according to
its clientele needs
(public/private sector), as
well as to define the
necessary requirements
for off the self, holistic
product solutions. Energy
use and supply is of
fundamental importance
to society and has made
the greatest impact on the
environment of any
human activity
Electronics & ICT
Electronics and
Optoelectronics group is
deeply involved in the
targeted development of
nanocomposite materials
that find various
applications in the sector
of electronics. The group
is involved with ICT
subjects like smart sensor
integration, signal
processing / pattern
recognition, wireless
sensor networks, Non-
Destructive Testing
techniques, adaptive and
cognitive systems.
Materials&
Nanotechnology
With the implementation
of nanotechnologies,
products can be improved
for both professional and
general public users.
CETRI’s skills therefore
encompass a massive
range of processes and
applications, whether
nano-engineered
materials are integrated
into complex matrixes or
coated onto the surfaces,
they offer prospects such
as improved durability,
self-cleaning, self-healing
and water- or dirt-
repellent features.
Food &
Health Care
The health care group
research is applied first in
every day life with
technological structural
products and second in
health issues that any
individual possibly face by
giving innovative solutions
in rehabilitation while
promoting a healthy way
of life. Much expertise
also exists in the food
processing sector
addressing both
technological as well as
nutritional issues.
“…CETRI always look for technological breakthroughs that matters…”

70% success

8. Innovation Management
Any firm to remain competitive in the 21st
century must be innovative. To achieve this,
an integrated innovation management
process should be developed within
organization that will be directed in
developing process that will respond to
market or social needs.
CETRI helps client organization achieve this through
customized consultation services. An interdisciplinary
team of both researchers and marketers help the
management of the client organization to design the
strategic objectives related to innovation, to implement
processes to shepherd the generation and development
of novel ideas, and insuring leaders create an
environment that balances creativity and capturing value
from creativity
The provided services include the identification of the
opportunity within the capacities of the client that can
lead to competitive advantage, a customized
methodology to transform ideas into specific projects,
performance measurements techniques, setting up and
supporting technology and innovation networks and
