A group of researchers, designers, and housing specialists discussed how to turn scientific knowledge into tools to reduce the impacts of global warming at the local level.
Researchers are developing a project to measure waste of this fruit, from harvest to the wholesale market and ultimately to the final buyer.

At the Center for the Future of Cities at Tecnológico de Monterrey, researchers are developing computational urbanism models to improve urban planning in cities like Mexicali and enhance residents’ quality of life.
smart cities technology education
An interdisciplinary group of researchers published a book on how to build smart cities using AI, robotics, and gamification.
Solar panels installed on an industrial metal roof help generate energy and reduce indoor heat.
Researchers at Tec de Monterrey show how solar panels installed on industrial roofs can reduce heat and improve thermal comfort.
AI
The system will enable bidirectional translation between Spanish and the Tsotsil language. It will also transcribe speech to text and convert text to speech using a native accent.
Detecting Potholes with AI
Using sensors and cameras, one project succeeded in detecting potholes—and even patched areas—on city streets, aiming to monitor road infrastructure and enable faster, more informed maintenance decisions.
Illustration of a flooded world
A group of researchers present Infrarisk 360, a tool that uses digital twins, AI and graphic engines to anticipate the risk of flood damage in a specific area.
Aerial view of a city with buildings and urban spaces
The GOHSC is developing new metrics to assess urban health using open data and scientific evidence. Its work — carried out with the participation of Tec de Monterrey — is already shaping policy decisions in cities around the world.
vulnerability to store robbery
Robberies targeting small businesses are among the least reported crimes because filing a complaint involves long and complicated processes for shop owners.
