Low-Power Bionic Ear

This work includes a project entitled "Low-Power Brain-Machine Interfaces" with applications to prosthetics for paralysis, the blind, and experimental neuroscience systems. Another project entitled "Bionic Ear" has applications to cochlear implants and speech recognition. more

Time-Based Hybrid Computing

Circuit Modeling of Biology

This work includes modeling of the vocal tract, hybrid analog-digital circuit models of gene-protein and spiking neuronal networks, the cochlea, the heart and circulatory system. The synergy between circuit modeling and bio-inspired systems often leads to applications for sensory, computing and biomedical systems. more

 

Analog VLSI Vision Systems

Bio-inspired Systems

This work includes a project entitled "An RF Cochlea", a spectrum analyzer for radio frequencies inspired by the energy-efficient, rapid, and noise-robust architecture of the biological cochlea or inner ear at audio frequencies. This work has applications to universal radio, software radio, and cognitive radio. Other bio-inspired projects for sensing and computing are also described. more
