Within the [[https://www.magneliq.eu/|MAGNELIQ]] project (EU Horizon 2020, No 899285), researchers from the Materials Synthesis and Complex Matter Departments, with partners (Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics of the University of Maribor, Prensilia, s.r.l.), developed three sensors that were recognized as [[https://innovation-radar.ec.europa.eu/eic-transition|important innovations]] by the European Innovation Council (EIC). An optical sensor for measuring electric and magnetic fields (No. 5150, All-optical external-field sensor) and rotation (No. 5152, Contactless magneto-optic rotation sensor) are based on a magneto-optical fluid embedded in an optical fiber and is suitable for use in process automation and robotics, even under extreme conditions (radiation, submarine, toxic, or explosive environments). The third sensor (No. 51047, Distributed Liquid Force Sensor) is based on a magneto-electric fluid, which enables force measurement over a large area, representing a significant improvement for robotics.
