Coimisiún na Meán is concerned that people are having difficulty reporting illegal content to online platforms. Under the Digital Services Act, online platforms are required to act on reports of illegal content in line with the law. This concern comes following an initial review, alongside information gathered from An Coimisiún’s Contact Centre and complaints passed on by other European regulators. An Coimisiún is now initiating a formal review of online platforms’ systems, to ensure that the platforms are complying with their obligations under the EU Digital Services Act (DSA).
Under the DSA, online platforms must have easy to access and user-friendly ways for users to report illegal content (Article 16 of the DSA). They must also have a clear and accessible point of contact for users to contact them (Article 12). Coimisiún na Meán is responsible for making sure that all platforms with their EU headquarters in Ireland follow these rules, while working closely with the European Commission and other online safety regulators across Europe.
Coimisiún na Meán has now issued formal requests for information to a range of platforms for further comprehensive detail on their approach to reporting options for illegal content and points of contact for users. Once the information gathering phase is complete, Coimisiún na Meán will engage with the platforms to ensure that their reporting mechanisms and point of contacts comply with the requirements of the DSA. Where concerns remain, Coimisiún na Meán can issue a compliance notice directing platforms to address any shortcomings identified in their systems and processes. If this does not lead to changes and improvements, An Coimisiún can open a formal investigation. If the investigation leads to a finding of non-compliance, Coimisiún na Meán can impose sanctions, such as a fine. An Coimisiún can also enter into a binding commitment agreement with a platform, in which the platform gives undertakings to bring its behaviour into line with the law.
John Evans, Digital Services Commissioner at Coimisiún na Meán, said “The DSA is a landmark law aimed at creating a safer and fairer online environment for users. However, its effectiveness for Irish and EU citizens hinges on the full implementation of its provisions by platforms. Of the complaints we have from people in Ireland and across Europe about online platforms, one in three are about problems when reporting illegal content online. We are intervening now to ensure that platforms follow the rules so that people can effectively exercise their rights under the DSA.’’
Niamh Hodnett, Online Safety Commissioner at Coimisiún na Meán, said “We are committed to using the full range of powers available under our Online Safety Framework to hold platforms to account for keeping people safe online. Through the DSA, our upcoming Online Safety Code and the EU Terrorist Content Online Regulation, we are working towards a digital landscape where adults and children can go online without fear of being harmed by the content or behaviour they come across. When people see illegal content, they should report it to the platform where they saw it and if they aren’t satisfied with the platform’s response, or if they can’t find an easy way to report the content, they should get in touch with us.”
The Vodafone Foundation in Ireland has announced the launch of a new guide for parents and guardians which aims to provide resources to ensure children are kept safe in the digital world.
The ’Parenting in a Digital World’ guide has been designed to empower parents and guardians in navigating the complexities of devices and digital safety. It is available for free, both in Vodafone stores nationwide and online at www.vodafone.ie.

Limerick woman Olivia Humphreys (24) witnessed how upsetting it is for patients who face losing their hair during chemotherapy when her mother went through it in 2019.
65-99% of patients going through chemotherapy will be affected by hair loss*. Scalp cooling can help prevent this by shrinking the blood vessels and is done by applying cold temperatures to the scalp during chemotherapy treatment. Scalp cooling is intended to help prevent hair loss, known as chemotherapy-induced alopecia, for people undergoing chemotherapy. It works by limiting blood flow to the scalp. This can reduce the amount of the chemo treatment that reaches your head, protecting your hair follicles from the chemo drugs.
Olivia noticed the shortage of scalp-cooling machines aimed to minimise hair loss in the hospital her mother was in, as well as how limited the existing solutions were.
Current products require the patient to arrive 30 minutes early and stay for 90 minutes after infusion for pre and post scalp cooling. With Athena, patients can manage this aspect of treatment themselves and seamlessly integrate into an infusion appointment with no extra time or attention required, using this device from the comfort of their own homes.
The Problem:
Current chemotherapy scalp cooling devices are either heavy duty hospital-only machines which cannot be moved easily and require patients to sit in a ward for long periods of time.
On the other hand, there are cheaper, manual cooling alternatives available used to cool the heads of chemo patients to prevent hair loss, yet these prove to be less powerful, ineffective and they don’t last long enough for maximum benefit. Athena aims to offer an effective hospital standard device that gives control to a patient in a time of little control.
The Invention:
University of Limerick graduate Olivia Humphreys, witnessed firsthand how much of an impact chemotherapy induced hair loss can have on a person, when her mother was sadly affected by cancer in 2019 and from spending time with her during treatment experience, was inspired to reimagine the way scalp-cooling can be done.
How does it work?
Athena works by utilising low-cost thermoelectric semiconductors called peltiers, and these cool a tank of water, which circulates the cold water around the head with the smartly designed headpiece. The battery powered device allows patients to bring the device home and control it themselves, making it more accessible to the consumer market.
The estimated cost for Athena would be around €1000, according to Olivia Humphreys, compared to industry machines which come in at around €40,000 or more. Weighing around 3kg, Athena is more portable than the current leading products on the market, which use refrigeration technology requiring constant plugged in power. Athena, at full battery power, can run for 3.5 hours, allowing the patient to commute to and from the hospital while cooling and move around during infusion for bathroom visits, etc.
Speaking about Athena, Olivia Humphreys said: “I decided to build a working prototype to test the capabilities of the Peltier semiconductors. Using a Peltier computer cooling fan system, a diaphragm pump, my mum’s old suitcase, and my dad’s plane battery, I was able to create a strong proof of concept to gather valuable feedback to develop the concept. Following this, I focused on the product’s form, creating cardboard and foam models and determining functionality aspects and touchpoints to ensure the best user experience. Ultimately, I arrived at my final model, Athena, which was crafted using SolidWorks 3D CAD modelling.”
The future of Athena:
Speaking about what is next for this invention, Olivia says: “To elevate Athena to the next level, extensive research and development is required. While working on this project, I have been fortunate to network with Luminate Medical, a company in Galway, Ireland, dedicated to building a better future for cancer care. They have extended an internship offer to me as a research and development engineer. I have accepted and am very eager to apply the insights gained from my own research and development to contribute to their mission.”
Speaking about Athena, Lead Design Engineer at Dyson James Gilchrist who was part of the judging panel, said: “Hair is a deeply rooted symbol of our identity. Losing it can be one of the most difficult side effects of chemotherapy. Currently, only 8 of Ireland’s 26 hospitals offer scalp cooling as a treatment[1], partly due to the expense of the equipment and the additional time required to deliver the treatment.
The genius of Athena isn’t just in increasing access; it’s in taking the patient out of the clinic. Instead of spending an extra two hours in the treatment centre, Athena allows patients to precool their scalp on the way there and continue the cooling process post-treatment in the comfort of their own home. That’s not just a win for patients but also for clinics, enabling them to treat more patients each day.
Olivia impressed us with her first prototype—a ‘cut and shut’ computer cooling fan and diaphragm pump built into her mum’s old suitcase. Once that proved the concept, she went on to develop a high-fidelity prototype, leveraging recent innovations in battery-powered coolers.”
Olivia is eager to see how her work can inspire further innovation in cancer treatment and patient care and continue contributing to advancements in the industry.
Athena will now progress to the international stage of the James Dyson Award and Olivia will aim to commercialise this product by producing a fully functional, technologically integrated prototype.
The Runners Up:
Suas designed by Ko Kallewaard, a student in the University of Limerick
The Problem: People with reduced mobility who need to travel with their wheelchair, encounter problems such as having to check in their wheelchair at the gate and get assigned the airline wheelchair, which is often not suitable and doesn’t offer independence to people with disabilities. On landing, many wheelchair users have experienced lost wheelchairs or worse, completely broken wheelchairs, leaving them in a terrible predicament.
The Solution:
Suas enables wheelchair users to travel with their own chair and is encouraging airlines to fit specially engineered seats with Suas’s universal wheelchair lock as well as offering a connecting lock to the wheelchair user for their chair. Any plane supporting SUAS allows you to board and fly in your own wheelchair meaning no more damage to customer equipment, no more discomfort or humiliation for wheelchair users– just the freedom to travel independently. SUAS consists of two parts- the lock on the wheelchair and the redesigned seating system on the plane. The lock is a tool steel part that attaches to the rigidizer bar situated on the back of all rigid manual wheelchairs.
The newly designed seating system is a plane seat that can be set up in two ways – a traditional seat or a wheelchair space. There is a small stainless steel and aluminium lock inside the frame of the seat that automatically locks into either the traditional seats or the SUAS lock. The frame is designed so that any sized wheelchair can fit over it and lock into the space.
The SUAS system is equipped with a turbulence control module which uses a pendulum to trigger the adjustable arm to tighten, keeping the wheelchair or the seats in place.
Swoop created by Sean-Jameson Galvin from the University of Limerick
The Problem:
Many people have conditions such as dyslexia, dysmusia and dysgraphia, making music more difficult and meaning a lot of people just give up if they can’t engage creatively in music practice at foundation level. Swoop is a way of connecting early music learners with the music by making it more visually interesting, accessible through sight, sound and sensation by way of a projector on a wall or screen. Music is then learned through hand movements and colour codes.
The Solution:
Swoop is a new and accessible way of learning and creating music. Using hand movement, it enables the user to create, feel and learn music both individually and in group settings. Swoop aids in helping to bridge the gap between traditional and digital music. The product includes two gloves with embedded haptic motors . These motors provide haptic feedback relative to the note and volume intensity and aid gesture recognition software in distinguishing the user’s hand from the background. all works in tandem with a companion app allowing the user to change parameters based on their experience.
The product system enables learners to engage with music concepts transferrable to traditional music learning. It functions using 3 axes of movement:
– X Axis (Octave Displacement): Moving the hand left and right shifts the octave, mimicking guitar or piano movements. The accompanying parameter app controls the number of octaves.
– Y Axis (Note Pitch): Moving hands left and right transitions between seven notes, with the left hand for lower and the right for higher notes, mimicking a traditional music stave.
– Z Axis (Volume Variation): Moving hands forward and back adjusts volume, teaching sound intensity through pressure.
Speaking about creating Swoop, Sean-Jameson Galvin said:
“Throughout the development of Swoop, I learned so much about accessibility when it comes to music. What works for one may not work for another in a linear learning system. It is for that reason I believe the user should have autonomy over their learning direction. It is with this principle in mind that I aim to further the development of Swoop by making music learning and creation a more enjoyable and expressive experience.”
The international top 20 shortlist will be announced on October 16th and the international winners on November 13th.
