Pixel | Behind the Hardware: Active Edge Sensors
A behind the scenes view of how active edge development came about.
Bye Bye Academia.. Hello World!
I defended my thesis on the 15th of July and am now a full fledged Ph.D. (for whatever that is worth 🙂 ). I have since joined Atmel Corporation as their Sr. Applications Engineer and will be helping them deploy their capacitive touch screen solutions on tablets and other mobile consumer product platforms.
Activity Monitoring Using Accelerometers in Smart Phones
I have been interested in developing sensors and algorithms for activity monitoring for a while. I believe we can leverage the accelerometers in the ubiquitous smart phones to detect activity levels of individuals and provide real time feedback on their energy balance. I got tired of writing proposals for it, and decided to whip up … Read more
Semi Finalists at UW Business Plan Competition 2010

Interfacial Force Sensors
Here is a video highlighting the features of the interfacial force sensor targeting biomechanical applications that I have been developing over the last year. The sensor is unique in its ability to flex and stretch in 3 dimensions for a perfect and enduring fit. The second video shows you the sensor’s response to a foot … Read more
Hello world!
I intend to post quick updates on my life, research, and pretty much anything of significance here.
