Businesses can no longer ignore the impact that the digital world is having on the environment. At IMT Atlantique, François Deltour and Virginie Lethiais are using the OMNI observatory to explore initiatives rolled out at establishments in Brittany to reduce their digital footprint. Their latest analyses showcase various practices, ranging from raising awareness to more structured measures such as implementing electronic waste reduction policies or purchasing equipment that has been certified with eco-labels.

It could soon be possible to restore tactile sensations for people fitted with prosthetics thanks to the Flexeo project. This research program, led by Mines Saint-Etienne, has entered the second phase after four years of development. Under the supervision of Sylvain Blayac, the team has designed a flexible electronic chip that can detect and reproduce tactile sensations.
