"Institute of Technological Innovation": 70 patents under registration, strengthening the UAE’s scientific standing

ABU DHABI, 26 October / WAM / The Technological Innovation Institute of the Advanced Technology Research Council in Abu Dhabi continues to consolidate the UAE’s position as a global center for scientific research and advanced development through qualitative achievements that contribute to enhancing the country’s competitiveness and leadership in the fields of advanced science and technology.

The Institute embodies the vision of the wise leadership in building a knowledge economy based on innovation, research and development, and providing a scientific environment capable of producing practical solutions for the future of vital sectors locally and globally.

The institute revealed that it currently has 70 patents under registration within the innovation system in various fields that represent the fruit of the efforts of its nine research centers and scientific staff, which cover multiple fields including artificial intelligence, digital science, autonomous robotics, advanced materials, cryptography, directed energy, propulsion, space, quantum, renewable and sustainable energy, and safe systems, which represent an integrated system. It works to transform scientific knowledge into practical applications that contribute to the development of innovative technical solutions.

Since the beginning of this year, the Institute of Technology Innovation has achieved a number of notable achievements that reflect the breadth of its global impact and research leadership in the fields of artificial intelligence and advanced technologies. The Joint Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (TII-NVAITC) was launched in partnership with Nvidia, to be the first of its kind in the Middle East region, in a strategic step aimed at pushing the boundaries of innovation at the intersection of artificial intelligence and robotics, accelerating the development of the next generation of intelligent autonomous systems, and expanding the “Falcon LLM” family of language models with the launch of “Falcon.” H1″ and “Falcon Arabic”; The last model represents the first Arabic linguistic model in the series designed to enhance digital inclusion, support Arabic content through smart platforms, and consolidate the presence of the Arabic language in modern technologies.

The Institute also achieved a historic achievement in the Emirati space sector by successfully igniting the first locally made rocket engine powered by liquid fuel, in a step that embodies the national capabilities in designing and developing advanced air and space technologies, and confirms the readiness of Emirati competencies for leadership in this vital sector.

In the quantum field, the Institute launched the new generation “Manarat” quantum processor, which is a qualitative achievement that paves the way towards building scalable quantum architectures for real-world applications, enhancing strategic sectors such as energy, healthcare and communications. It also developed a fiber laser with a diameter of 2 millimeters, which is considered a high-precision innovation with promising applications in the medical and industrial fields, which reflects… The institute excels in photonics science and is committed to transforming scientific research into practical innovations that have a direct impact on human life. In the field of generative artificial intelligence, the Institute continued to develop the Falcon series by launching the “Falcon-H1” and “Falcon-E”, which are distinguished by their ability to operate efficiently in environments with limited resources, which enhances access to technology and makes it more sustainable and comprehensive.

In terms of processing text, audio, and video simultaneously, the institute launched the “Falcon 3” model, which is a basic multimedia model capable of this processing, allowing the development of advanced applications in the fields of audio-visual analysis, video summarization, and smart agents enhanced by sound and vision.

The Institute’s Autonomous Robotics Center also drives applied research in smart mobility, air and marine systems, and autonomous platforms designed for practical deployment in the real world – from logistics and environmental monitoring to smart city applications, where many of these systems are being developed with artificial intelligence at their core, enhancing their capabilities for perception, navigation, decision-making and coordination across diverse environments. And dynamic.

The Space and Propulsion Center develops next-generation propulsion technologies and space systems to accelerate the UAE’s ambitions in space, including new propulsion concepts, systems integration, and autonomous mission operation. AI is a strategic enabler and drives advances in intelligent control, proactive diagnosis and on-board autonomy, making propulsion systems smarter, more efficient and mission-ready.

Dr. Shawqi Qasimi, the main official at the Institute of Technology Innovation in Abu Dhabi, said in a statement to “WAM” that the institute’s research centers are not limited to theoretical research, but rather focus on practical applications of advanced science by integrating artificial intelligence in the development of smart, self-operating systems and advanced platforms capable of supporting smart cities and future air and maritime missions.

He explained that the institute today has more than 100 active international research partnerships with academic institutions, scientific centers and global technology companies, in a step that reflects its commitment to strengthening Abu Dhabi’s position as a global center for research and development and advancing cross-border scientific cooperation. Qasimi stressed that these partnerships represent a fundamental pillar of the Technological Innovation Institute’s strategy, which aims to “innovate from within and influence globally” by exchanging experiences and knowledge and empowering research competencies in a way that enhances the UAE’s presence in the global scene of future sciences and technologies.
