EcoPRT will bridge the gap between NC State’s two campuses
Two faculty members from the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering are creating a new transportation system that would link Centennial Campus with the University's main campus. The EcoPRT (ecological personal rapid transit) is an ultra-light and low-cost...
NC State forms NSF-Funded Center for Advanced Electronics Through Machine Learning With UIUC and Georgia Tech
North Carolina State University, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Georgia Tech are forming a center that aims to speed up design and verification of microelectronic circuits and systems, reducing development costs and time-to-market for manufacturers of microelectronic products, especially integrated circuits. The center is funded for five years through the National Science Foundation’s Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers (I/UCRC) program, and by the industrial members of the center.
How Teaching Robots to Identify Microscopic Fossils Could Help Us Understand Oceans
Although divided by geography and discipline, ReEdgar Lobaton, an electrical and computer engineering researcher at NC State University, Tom Marchittoc, a geological sciences researcher at CU Boulder, and Ritayan Mitra, a post-doc at NC State are partners in an attempt to solve a tricky engineering challenge and advance our understanding of Earth’s oceans.
