- The Lockheed Martin Radio Frequency Space Systems Research Center will boost engineering expertise at the college and create new curriculum to fill in-demand skills in the space sector. Spread over four years, the sponsorship will establish new academic programs focused on radio frequency (RF) systems.
- "Adaptive optical devices that are included in a miniature microscope are a game changer," said grant co-investigators Juliet Gopinath, assistant professor in electrical, computer and energy engineering and Victor Bright, professor of mechanical engineering, both at ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ. "They enable truly miniature 3D imaging devices without mechanically moving parts."
- Assistant professors Juliet Gopinath and Khurram Afridi have received 2016 CAREER Awards, the National Science Foundation’s most prestigious award for junior faculty."We anticipate with excitement that this new class of CAREER grantees will make
- Double Helix, a startup company co-founded by Professor Rafael Piestun that specializes in 3D nano-scale imaging, has been turning a lot of heads in the optics and photonics industry lately.In February, the company won first place in the 2016 SPIE
- Three years ago, Professor Lucy Pao and her colleagues responded to a call for proposals from the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) with a plan for a morphing wind turbine. But they didn't make the cut, she thinks, because their proposal wasn't "disruptive" enough. So they went bigger.
- ECEE professor and vice chancellor for research Terri Fiez was awarded the 2016 IEEE Undergraduate Teaching Award this month at the IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco.IEEE is the world’s largest professional
- Groundbreaking microprocessor chip uses light, rather than electricity, to transfer data at rapid speeds while consuming minute amounts of energy. The researchers also anticipate that the new technology can be integrated into current manufacturing processes smoothly and scaled up for commercial production with minimal disruption.
- Jason Breitbarth’s experiences at CU-Boulder continue to impact the way Holzworth Instrumentation does business.
- To help our students, alumni and industry friends keep pace with technology trends – including the Internet of Things – the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering has expanded its options in embedded systems design, starting in fall 2015.
- When people think of futuristic virtual reality, the holodeck from Star Trek often comes to mind. But while that technology may still be a ways off, a CU-Boulder alum says that using visual data to make photos and video feel more personal is a lot closer to reality.
