Optical self-excitation and detection for inertial MEMS Sensors

Optical self-excitation and detection for inertial MEMS Sensors Abstract: We report on the development of an optical self-excitation and detection method to allow for high stability operation of inertial MEMS sensors. A single constant amplitude laser beam is used to both drive and optically interrogate the resonant frequency of a MEMS resonator. A parametric study […]


Home automation and personalization through individual location determination

Home automation and personalization through individual location determination   Abstract: The focus of this project is to develop a prototype to demonstrate the utility of individualized location determination for home automation. While current home automation systems provide localization at a GPS level, they do not identify users’ locations within a building. The smart home technology […]
