Elissa Welle, Graduate Student Research Assistant in Biomedical Engineering, prepares to sharpen an array that has four carbon fiber electrodes attached to it at Professor Cindy Chestek’s Cortical Neural Prosthetics lab inside North Campus Research Center in Ann Arbor, MI on Friday June 11, 2021.
The carbon fibers are originally cylindrical wires with a flat end but are made sharp through the heat of the butane flame. The rest of the array, composed of medical-grade silicone, a polyimide printed circuit board, four 50-um diameter wires, and an Omnetics connector, is kept safely under the water, which acts as a flame retardant. Once sharp, the electrodes insert easily into lots of different types of biological tissue - nerves, the brain, the dorsal root ganglia - that typical flat-ended wires cannot penetrate.

Mohammed Islam, Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Professor of Biomedical Engineering, College of Engineering, demonstrates use of a chemical sensor prototype in the EECS Building on North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on December 8, 2017.
The sensor is able to detect a variety of qualities from a distance of more than 100 feet away and could be used to identify traces of drugs and explosives, as well as speeding the analysis of certain medical samples. Previously such a sensor was only able to be used in closed proximity.
Islam's research group built a laser-producing device that is able to send an infrared laser of various intensities through a series of different fibers that are connected.

Researchers led by UC San Diego built a device that sorts and separates cancer cells from the same tumor based on how “sticky” they are. They found that less sticky cells migrate and invade other tissues more than their stickier counterparts, and have genes that make tumor recurrence more likely.

Joe Hamilton of Flint, Mich. intuitively controls a DEKA prosthetic hand — made by Mobius Bionics and called the “LUKE Arm” — for an advanced prosthetics study at the University of Michigan.
In this major advance for mind-controlled prosthetics, U-M research led by Paul Cederna, the Robert Oneal Collegiate Professor of Plastic Surgery and a professor of biomedical engineering, and Cindy Chestek, associate professor of biomedical engineering, demonstrates an ultra-precise prosthetic interface technology that taps faint latent signals from nerves in the arm and amplifies them to enable real-time, intuitive, finger-level control of a robotic hand.

Yingying Zeng, Macromolecular Sci & Eng PhD students, demonstrates uses of oxygen sniffing core-shell phosphor nanoparticles in the NCRC on November 22, 2017.
The nanoparticles emit light in oxygen-deficient environments. Researchers hope that because tumors are oxygen-deficient, that these nanoparticles will help doctors more precisely measure and analyze tumors once diagnosed.

Molong Duon and Deokkyun Yoon, both mechanical engineering PhD students, and Chinedum Okwudire, associate professor in mechanical engineering, have developed what they call "filtered b-spline" algorithms to speed up consumer 3-D printers without sacrificing quality.
Desktop 3-D printers often use light and flexible parts to save costs and stay affordable, but this allows for unwanted flexing and vibrations when the movement of the printhead is accelerated. These vibrations can offset the printhead, and because the printer uses a stepper motor, it won't know there is a problem and will keep printing, resulting in an incredibly deformed final product.
The Michigan Engineering researchers developed algorithms that take into account the dynamics of the printer and refine the movement of the printhead and platform to mitigate vibration errors.

A robot from the APRIL Laboratory led by Ed Olson, Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, is tested in the Bob and Betty Beyster Atrium by Dhanvin Mehta, CSE PhD Student and member of the APRIL Laboratory, on December 14, 2017.
Mehta is working on the Risk Aware Multi-Policy Decision Making Algorithm that will help this and other robots guide themselves in uncertain environments with constantly changing variables, such as autonomous vehicles on highways and search and rescue vehicles in disaster areas. The algorithm takes into account the various decisions at hand and adjusts to each unique situation, making the best decision possible.

Necmiye Ozay, an assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science talks to Lars Petter Nilsson, EECES Graduate Student Research Assistant, and her group testing their software at Mcity - U-M's model town for autonomous vehicles. Unlike most driverless cars, which are programmed by humans, Ozay's method uses a form of artificial intelligence. Given the vehicle specs, the rules of the road, and the laws of physics, their algorithm can program the car to drive safely.

Hannah Weiss, a PhD student in industrial and operations engineering, using AURORA, the Augmented Reality Operations Readiness Assessment, in her lab Engineering Research Building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan on Wednesday, April 6, 2022.
Weiss said the research focuses on the development and preliminary validation of an augmented reality system and wearable sensors to assess balance and hand-eye coordination performance. The implication of this research extends into applications for both the aerospace industry for astronaut populations and the medical field as it relates to aging populations and individuals with balance disorders.
