Granted Patents

EPFL is financed by the Swiss government. Its research results should be made available in as many fields as possible. EPFL therefore aims at granting non-exclusive licenses to companies interested in its intellectual property. In case of interest for the patents below, contact Prof. R.D. Hersch.
