NC State researchers have developed a ?biobot.? Rather than use a mechanical creation, researchers used live cockroaches equipped with a tiny electronic backpack that could control the insect?s movement. The backpack could detect the location of sounds to move the...
Researchers have developed and used a customized suite of technologies that allows a computer to train a dog autonomously, with the computer effectively responding to the dog based on the dog’s body language
The Connected MCU Lab takes a hands-on approach, leveraging a Wi-Fi enabled development board, tools, software, and cloud services ? everything needed to design IoT solutions. The Connected MCU Lab curriculum, authored by NC State’s Alexander Dean, includes...
Researchers have developed a model that allows antenna designers to identify efficient configurations for antenna designs in minutes, rather than days. The model is designed to expedite development of next generation “multi-input, multi-ouput” (MIMO)...

With the noise generated by the Internet of Things (IoT) and related technologies, energy harvesting has little choice but to take the back seat. However, one analyst claimed that the future may be bigger for energy harvesting.
Two years ago, NC State researchers fitted cockroaches with electrical backpacks complete with tiny microphones to detect the faintest of sounds. The goal, according to engineers, is to use the biobots with high-resolution microphones to differentiate between sounds...
NC State researchers have created software that manages all voltage regulation in an embedded system solely on the applications processor unit (APU), without resorting to expensive smart switch-mode power supplies (SMPSes) with their own microcontroller or application...
