As autonomous technology evolves, smart vehicles emerge as a pivotal development for transforming public transportation and minimizing transport costs. Key to their broad acceptance is the resolution of safety, stability, and compatibility issues. This project proposes a cutting-edge solution through a High-Definition (HD) map-aided, multi-sensor fusion approach, aiming at precise lane-level positioning and navigation in […]

Heavy metal toxicity has been a cause for public health concern for decades. There are a variety of industries that both produce heavy metals as a byproduct, or use them directly in consumer products or practical applications. In particular, cadmium (Cd) is one such toxic metal that is known to induce negative effects not only […]

In this study, we are going to synthesize gold nanoparticles by biological method using Z. officinale and evaluate their antimicrobial activity against antimicrobial resistance Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Moreover, we are going to study the synergistic effects of the gold nanoparticles with ceftazidium antibiotic and others with different concentrations against antimicrobial resistance Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates.This area of […]

Three-dimensional (3D) reality capture is an umbrella term for imaging techniques used to create accurate models of real scenes. An important reality capture technology is lidar or laser scanner devices that collect three-dimensional measurements of objects they can see. Laser scanners can be deployed on aircraft, a surveying tripod or on a self-driving car. Regardless […]

In this project, we explore using augmented reality avatars for supporting learning in low-traffic makerspaces. While makerspaces primarily provide community members with access to tools, they also serve as places to learn where community members build expertise with the equipment and fabrication processes. This learning process can either be guided formally using the makerspace as […]

Traditional breast monitoring via mammograms is avoided by 37% of eligible women for multiple reasons, including discomfort and inconvenience. To overcome this, there’s a rising interest in advocating microwave imaging as a safe, affordable, and portable alternative. This encourages early and regular monitoring, especially for younger women, with the added benefit of accessibility in rural […]
