Some of our projects
|
Twin Beetle Robot
Control of multiple robots
- Both robots are to follow the same centreline track
- Maintain same distance between the robots
|
|
Hovering Bat Robot
Development of a flapping-wing robot. Challanges:
- constructional techniques and the materials
dynamical mechanical system
electronic, computing and control system
- fluid dynamics of the craft
- the power plant
- fundamental rules of flapping wing flight
|
Time series analysis of ECG
Detection of abnormal heart beats
- Separation of base-line from noise
- Gaussian distribution of similarity measure
|
|
Mammographic Image Processing
Detection of microcalcificaion
- Tiny specks of calcium - very small
- Usually found in the area of rapidly dividing cells
- If many microcalcifications are found in one area - called Cluster
|
|
Automated fluorescent penetration inspection
Inspection of aircraft components
- Use of fluorescent die and UV light
- Check for minute cracks
|
|
