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.

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.

A new method could enable researchers to build more efficient, longer lasting perovskite solar cells and LEDs. By growing thin perovskite films on different substrates, UC San Diego engineers invented a way of fabricating perovskite single crystals with precisely deformed, or strained, structures.

Tyeen Taylor, CEE Research Fellow, works with Valeriy Ivanov, CEE Associate Professor, to pivot a previously in-person workshop to a digital one. In the wake of COVID-19, Taylor and Ivanov have been working quickly to pivot a NSF-funded workshop in order to continue with their goal of understanding climate change.

The Honey Harvest was held at the Dartmouth Organic Farm in the upper barn by the Beekeepers Association.
Attendees learned how to extract honey starting with removing frames from a beehive to uncapping, spinning, filtering and have a chance to taste the honey! (Photo by Josh Renaud '17)

Pooja Mehta, Research Laboratory Tech Associate, constructs a hanging drop spheroid platform in the North Campus Research Complex on North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on October 2, 2017.
The platform provides a 3D environment for ovarian cancer cells, enabling them to grow the same way they would in the body. They can use this model to test different medications and determine which ones work best on a given tumor.

Brandon Wong, Research Fellow, Civil and Environmental Engineering, remotely activates valves to control the flow of water throughout an 11 square mile area of Ann Arbor.
Wong and his team under Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering Branko Kerkez created one of the most densely instrumented systems in the country. The experiment pushes the boundaries of what is achievable with the Internet of Water by using valves to instantly redesign these spaces collectively as a system ready to immediately adapt to unpredictable changes in storm patterns.

Xinjing Huang, Graduate Student Research Assistant for Electrical and Computer Engineering, displays a transparent solar cell at ECE Professor Stephen Forrest’s lab at 1437 EECS on North Campus in Ann Arbor, MI on September 3, 2021.
The new process for generating organic photovoltaics (OPVs) incorporates non-fullerene acceptors and is resulting in expected operation lifetimes of 30 years, making them suitable for niche applications that including installation inside building windows.
OPVs are flexible, can be manufactured relatively inexpensively and recent developments by Forrests group have proven them to be semi-transparent as well as efficient.

Alexander Hill, a Chemical Engineering Graduate Student Instructor, monitors a new reactor designed to produce ammonia for fertilizer without relying on fossil fuels.
U-M’s team is pioneering a system that harnesses energy from sunlight, reducing the reliance on temperature and pressure to bring the hydrogen and nitrogen together. It will pull nitrogen from the air using an air separation unit while splitting water molecules to produce hydrogen. Those gases will then be compressed inside the reactor to create ammonia at significantly lower temperatures and pressures than traditional methods. Each step in U-M’s process is driven by solar power, through both electricity-generating panels as well as new catalysts that help fuel chemical reactions with light, known as photocatalysts.Communications & Marketing
Yongjin Ma, an International Center Sponsored Affiliate, and Peng Zhou, Research Fellow for Electrical Engineering, install a photocatalytic water splitting system for directly producing hydrogen fuels from water and sunlight outside of Engineering Research Building 2 on North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on September 21,2021.
The system consists of two modules: a solar tracker module and photocatalytic water splitting module. The solar tracker orients a Fresnel lens toward the Sun, which can minimize the angle of incidence between the incoming sunlight and Fresnel lens. Reducing this angle can greatly increase the amount of solar energy collected.
The photocatalytic water splitting module is a chemical reaction device which consists of a photocatalyst wafer, water and reaction chamber. The photocatalyst wafer can use the concentrated solar light to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen is a known clean fuel which can be widely used in the chemical industry and fuel cell-based applications including automobiles and ships.

Inside the Autonomous Robotic Manipulation (ARM)Lab at 1212 Engineering Research Building II, massive KUKA robotic arms select and delicately transfer the correct beanbag from a pile of random objects. This is an extremely under-explored area in autonomous manipulation, mainly because deformable objects are difficult to model and simulate.

Michael Hamel, NERS PhD Student, uses a Microsoft Hololens headset to demonstrate use of augmented reality to detect the presence of nuclear weapons in the Nuclear Engineering Laboratory on June 21, 2017.
The technology is designed by the Consortium for Verification Technology (CVT) led by Sara Pozzi, NERS Professor. The CVT consists of twelve leading universities and nine national laboratories, working together to provide research and development needed to address technology and policy issues in treaty-compliance monitoring of nuclear weapons.
