Project Description We will experiment with using a Volterra ink dispenser to draw circuit traces directly onto a circuit board and explore the performance limitations of instant circuit generation. The end goal will be to see how complex a functioning circuit we can create using conductive ink and an X-Y...

Project Description We are developing a high resolution ultrasound imaging system that relies on 3-D tracking of the ultrasound probe using the Polaris Vega optical measurement system. This system will be used to enhance image quality for difficult-to-image patients and deep targets in the body. The student will explore the...

Project Description We are working on efficient power conversion architectures for utility-scale solar photovoltaic systems and for ultra-fast electric vehicle charging applications. In this project, the power electronics prototype architecture developed by our graduate students will be deployed and tested at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. The project involves assistance...

Project Description The project is focused on the development of design automation tools for power electronics systems, including switched-mode power converters for energy efficiency and renewable energy applications. Converter components, such as power semiconductor devices and magnetics, are modeled using machine-learning techniques. Such ML-based models are then used in optimization...

Project Description Helping in implementing new software for path planning and low-level control for AWS DeepRacer robots. Helping with the development and deployment of the interface software for AWS DeepRacer robots. Helping with the development and deployment of the camera system interface software. Helping with the development and deployment of...

Project Description This project will investigate the unique mathematical properties of maximal-length, Pseudo -Noise (PN) codes generated by a linear feedback shift register, and how these properties can be capitalized on for a new approach to remote sensing. Two optical or microwave/THz transmitters will be used to broadcast mutually-coherent, wideband,...

Project Description This project requires the skills of a motivated student with a CS background to develop a high-performance graphical user interface that allows users to interact with Computational Pattern-Producing Networks. Our lab uses CPPN representations to control the geometry of soft robotic actuators, and investigates the application of automated...

Project Description Imagine having a piece of software that could understand what you wanted a robot to look like without you needing to actually design the robot. This tool would convert your specifications about robot capabilities into a robot physical design. This is the tool that we’re building in the...

Project Description Very Low Frequency (VLF) radio waves can be used to understand the Earth’s ionosphere, a region of energetic charged particles and plasma that forms the boundary between the atmosphere and space proper. Our lab is completing the redesign of our VLF receivers in order to deploy an Array...
