The Ericsson Innovation Awards are a global university competition, giving students the opportunity to produce innovations based on Information Communication Technology (ICT) potential.
\\nJack Morton\\u2019s internal innovation practice, Genuine X traveled to Stockholm earlier this year to meet the finalists and discuss their ideas.
\\nThis year\'s theme was water, encouraging entrants to Dive Deeper into nature as our largest resource for technology. Ericsson\\u2019s search for the future in tech innovation brought us to all four corners of the globe, where just 4 finalists were selected from over 2,000 entries.
\\nEach team has the chance of winning the grand prize of \\u20ac25,000 and the opportunity to see their innovation bought to life.

\\n\\u201cWhile technology is rapidly becoming more automated, we have barely changed the way we access our oceans over the last century\\u201d
\\nInspired by cuttlefish technology, this beach dwelling group of friends from Adelaide, Australia has designed a Bio-AUV with a unique propulsion system enabling otherwise untraversable underwater exploration. The team hopes to create a commercially viable Autonomous Underwater Vehicle to assist scientists in crucial data gathering from complex reef systems.
\\nWe find out how the non-invasive technology will benefit research and commercial organisations, whilst potentially reducing the effects of climate change in underwater ecosystems.
