Certain types of university intellectual property can sometimes prove difficult to commercialise through traditional routes, usually because it is at an early stage of development, or because it presents enough uncertainty for companies to risk an investment.
University Technology’s Easy Access portal offers access to this type of intellectual property at no cost, to enable companies to evaluate it and put it to use quickly, with reduced risk.
Easy Access uses quick and simple licence agreements to fast-track the transfer of knowledge and expertise from Scotland’s universities to industry, so that these technologies may be developed for the benefit of the economy and society.
Through this initiative, our aim is to make it easier for Scottish universities and industry to work together and build strong, long-term relationships with industry partners

Heriot-Watt University (Edinburgh, Scotland) has a high-repetition-rate, femtosecond Yb: fibre laser available for license or purchase. Developed within the ultrafast laser group, this fibre laser is suitable for use in applications such as self-referenced optical frequency combs, OPO pumping, time-...
Heriot-Watt University (Edinburgh, Scotland) has patent pending for a high power laser source in the femtosecond pulse range (sub 500-fs). Avaialble for license or purchase, this ultrafast OPO laser source is suitable for application within micromachining, waveguide fabrication, and bio-imaging tech...
Businesses that are concerned with the use of large numbers of vehicles can create significant efficiencies by having access to instantaneous information on how their vehicles are being used. Advanced vehicle monitoring systems can help businesses understand how their fleet is being utilised so as t...
A new “Optical micro-rotator” system incorporates apparatus for and a method of rotating microscopic using a beam of electromagnetic radiation. In order to rotate an object a microscopic, non-circularly symmetric distribution of electro-magnetic radiation is projected on to a region cont...
The new methodology employs types of multipliers as switches. Such devices may be found with intrinsic bandwidths of many Gigahertz and because they are designed to be high frequency components have very small internal capacitances. The non-linearity inherent in the multiplication process will &ldqu...
Optical microfluidic sorting will allow biological or other matter to be sorted or fractionated by criteria including size, shape, density and refractive index. The technique may have the ability to sort matter from the scale of macro-molecules all the way up to large cells. In addition to the techn...
An effective software tool for guiding diagnosis and fault finding in present instances by identifying patterns and knowledge implicit in historic information databases.
JournalTOCs is the largest, searchable, freely available collection of scholarly journal 'Tables of Contents' in the world. It's for anyone looking for the latest papers published in International scholarly literature. A free service, customized versions with added functionality are available for li...
Using visible light and low cost naturally occuring photocatalyst materials, Heriot-Watt University has developed an additive manufacturing process for producing seed layers prior to electroless processing of flexible polyimide circuits. We now seek commercial partners in flex/ flex-rigid PCB ma...
The technology is a MEMS package design methodology providing a High Barrier to vapour (near hermetic)using existing wafer level photolithography and LIGA processes common in MEMS, MOEMS and RF-MEMS design. Using a novel conducting arrangement, 3D interconnects or through-cap connection is possible ...
