Sensory Feedback for Improved Prosthesis Control (SENSPRO)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2018,

"Functional substitution of a lost limb is necessary for persons with an amputation to perform daily life explorations and manipulations in their environment. In the case of a hand loss, affective reasons gain importance as amputees often indicate the desire to feel the warmth of a loved one’s touch. These considerations provide two key characteristics of successful prosthetics: (1) intuitive cont ...

THEORETICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF SYNCHRONOUS SILICON NANOWIRE WAVEGUIDE DISPLACEMENT SENSORS (NANO-DISP)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

"Recently, an approach using physical contact of suspended nanowire silicon waveguides for optical switching is presented using silicon photonics technology aiming telecommunication field. The demonstrated switch changed its state by in-plane displacement of a movable elliptical waveguide generated by a NEMS actuator. The technique provides sensitivity even to submicron distance/displacement level ...

NF-RAD: Near-Field Radiation Absorption and Scattering by Nanoparticles on Surfaces (NF-RAD)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

"The process of engineering, controlling and fabricating structures of 1-100 nanometers in size, which defines “nanoscale,” is a challenging endeavor. The unusual characteristics of such particles are due to their small sizes and high percentage of atoms in surface states, which yield unique properties that differ from those of the same bulk materials. Particularly, nanosize metallic particles and ...
