On April 8th, the IMG Faculty Member and ECE Assistant Professor, Roozbeh Tabrizian, received the ECE Excellence Award for Teaching. The Electrical and Computer Engineering College awards one faculty award per year in each of three categories: Research, Teaching and Service. We would like to congratulate Dr. Tabrizian on this accomplishment!
This week, the speaker for the IMG Seminar is Dr. Yong-Kyu Yoon on "Put the IoT where the Mouth is" - Smart Mouthguard and its Prospects.
Wearable IoT devices are getting elevated attentions in this connected world. A smart mouthguard - one of the first IoT wearables in the oral space, is presented as a future smart health platform. The evolution and specifications of some smart mouthguards developed in the lab are showcased. Its prospects and future directions are discussed with audience. Also, some impressions Dr. Yoon got from Consumer Electronic Show (CES) 2018 will be shared.
This week, the speakers for the IMG Seminar are:
MEMS-Based Five-Hole Probe with Optical Pressure Transducers. This project focuses on a MEMS-based 5HP capable of measuring the localized velocity vector and the static&dynamic pressure in a flow field. By packaging multiple fiber-optic lever MEMS pressure sensors at the probe tip, this new device greatly reduces the settling time and offers higher bandwidth compared to traditional pneumatic 5HP. This talk is mainly about the fabrication process of five pressure transducers on a single die, the probe's hemispheric tip with ~100 µm (OD) holes on the tip surface, and the multi-fiber ferrule for optical packaging.
Integrated Forward-View 2-Axis MEMS Scanner for Compact 3D Lidar. This project target at the integrated MEMS Scanner for MAV(Micro-air vehicles). The two vertically oriented mirror make forward view scan easy without difficult optical alignment. The weight of this MEMS scanner is only 20 mg, make it possible to be carried by MAV.
