The BDSL laboratory is focused on design and development of electro-mechanical systems with application to biomedical equipment, bio-sensors, and microsystems. The combination of mechanical systems, electronics and control (i.e. mechantronics) form the core of the research conducted in the lab. Our biomedical research centers on the development of (a) experimental lower arm prosthesis, (b) sensory methods to control multi-actuator prosthesis, (c) ultrasound imaging for bio-signal (tissue motion) measurement, and (d) wireless power transmission for implantable bio-sensors and stimulators. Our laboratory also explores novel microsystems (MEMS) technologies. The team has expertise in the areas of mechatronic system design, advanced computer simulation techniques, electronic design, mechanical design, signal acquisition and processing, and microsystem (MEMS) design and fabrication. We are a dynamic team and enjoy speaking with others of mutual interests. If you would like to learn more about our research, please explore our website and contact us with comments or questions.
