Ms. Patiño-Studencka, what are you working on at the moment?   I work in the area of navigation systems, with a focus on sensor data fusion. In my current project, we are building a pseudolite system. That is a local...[more]

Pricking a finger every day is just part of everyday life for many diabetes patients. A non-invasive measurement approach could release them from the constant pain of pin pricks. The linchpin is a biosensor engineered by...[more]

This fabric is a thief’s nightmare: It looks unassuming, but there’s more to it than meets the eye. As soon as an intruder breaks it, it sets off an alarm. The smart fabric enables the exact location of the break-in to be...[more]
