Seminar Title: Electrodynamic Wireless Power Transmission to High Performance Rotating Magnet Receivers
Speaker: Vernon Crasto, IMG, UF
Time: Dec 1st , 2023 @ 12:00pm
Abstract: In this seminar, the assembly, analysis, and characterization of a five-phase, rotating-magnet electrodynamic wireless power transmission (EWPT) receiver is reported. Additionally, power transfer to a constellation of multiple receivers is demonstrated, indicating the ability to additively combine multiple EWPT receivers for scalable power solutions.
IMG Ph.D. student Sai Pranesh Amirisetti was named the Best Teaching Assistant award for 2021-22 by the ECE Graduate Student Organization. Sai is a TA for the Semiconductor Fabrication Lab, where students learn microfabrication techniques and fabricate a diode and MEMS devices.
For over thirty years, the Hawaiian bobtail squid Euprymna scolopes has served as a model to understand the influences of beneficial bacteria on animal development and elucidate the molecular mechanisms of specificity during the establishment and maintenance of environmentally transmitted symbioses.

We are developing ultra-compact antennas, where the antenna size is much smaller than the electromagnetic wavelength.
Pervasive wireless connectivity is a must for today’s interconnected world. Many MHz-GHz communication systems require antennas with physical sizes that can be much larger than the entire size of the system. It is difficult to achieve good antenna performance if the size of the antenna is less than 1/10ththe electromagnetic wavelength (e.g. minimum of 3 cm at 1 GHz)

Detection of fecal indicating bacteria plays an important role in water quality monitoring to ensure safe human water contact and/or drinking. Specifically, epidemiological studies by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have shown strong correlations between illnesses and bacteria concentrations of Enterococci and E.
