The volume of data being transmitted (streaming, blockchain, machine learning, etc.) continues to increase exponentially. To carry this data, the traditional metallic transmission systems (typically copper) are being replaced with light-based (photonic) medium to reduce both the space and power consumption. This implies integrating photonic/optical components within the microelectronics infrastructure for electrical to optical conversion […]

Our project proposed an invention of a fully self-contained, autonomous flying robot that can mimic the morphology of the bat wings. Inspired by its attractive flying characteristics, our flying robot could achieve more agile flying ability in hovering and turning than conventional micro aerial vehicles. Meanwhile, the shape-morphing and flapping wings help the robot fly […]

Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) are smart materials capable of recovering large inelastic strains. SMA are therefore excellent candidates for applications where deformation needs to be controlled remotely. One of the main challenges holding back a wider acceptance of SMA is their poor workability leading to high tool wear when manufactured by machining. Additive Manufacturing, also […]

Successfully fabricating complex living tissue structures demands carefully designed tissue scaffolds that mimic complex native tissues, which 3D bioprinting aims to achieve by creating 3D mimics of natural tissues. The fabrication of functional 3D tissues is challenging due to the limitation of oxygen and nutrient transport to cells inside the printed scaffold. Among the numerous […]

Engineering graphene-based devices with exceptional nonlinear optical properties in the terahertz (THz) region play a crucial role in the advancement of THz technologies. We investigate how a metamaterial system consisting of a plasmonic structure enhances THz light-graphene interaction, thus leading to a higher nonlinearity in graphene. A variety of the plasmonic structures will be used […]

Hard and transparent 3D printing materials are in demand in applications such as durable device passivation and transparent architectures. To replace 3d printable glass or ceramic, which has the disadvantage of undergoing high-temperature post-treatment after printing, the study of hard, transparent, and thermally resistant 3D printing materials will be conducted in this project. To achieve […]

The precise mass measurement of exotic nuclei is of special significance to the understanding of the nuclear shell structure and paving the way to shed light on how the heavy elements in universe were made from iron. A Multiple-Reflection Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry has been developed at the Justus Liebig University Giessen in Germany and installed […]

Sleep-related breathing disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea, can be life threatening. Although solutions exist to treat these disorders, like Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and oral appliances including Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs), there are several issues relating to cost, comfort, and convenience with the products that are on the market today. This applied design […]

Today, small satellites are launched in large constellations like Starlink and Globalstar for space-based services, such as communications and weather monitoring. This rapid growth in space objects has become a real threat for space operation. In response to this issue of the growing population of space objects, Magellan is developing technologies to provide extensive and […]

This project will focus on digitalizing one specific type of engineering drawing by applying image processing technology. IPS has developed technology to digitalize different types of engineering drawings, and identified different technology and product development needs on a technology road map. This project is established for image processing for piping isometric drawings, and is important […]

The ocean is receiving much of the plastic waste generated on land and it is calculated that yearly up to 12.7 million tons of them enters in our oceans bringing a drastic environmental problem. This project seeks to create an autonomous boat made with recycled plastics, to clean up plastic waste in the oceans. The […]
