Development of a low-cost robotic squirrel for the study of small animal behavior
(2019-12)
This project focuses on building a low-cost remote controlled Robot Squirrel to support the study of small animal behavior. It can also be implemented as an educational tool for all the stages of the educational systems, ...
Extension and implementation of the mod without mod algorithm to efficiently compute the modulus of a number in hardware
(2020-12)
This thesis discusses a hardware implementation of modulo that does not require a multiplication. This implementation is based on the algorithm proposed in Mark A. Will's "Mod without mod" in which the an algorithm is ...
IEEE floating-point extension for managing error using residual registers
(2019-12)
This thesis discusses modifications to IEEE 754 floating-point units to help researchers and scientists monitor and control errors in scientific applications as well as provide faster method for extending precision compared ...
Study of RSSI Localization Performance Using LoRaWAN and SDR
(2019-07)
The Internet of Things (IoT) is increasing in size by having more devices connected to it as they are becoming low-cost to manufacture and easier to connect to the internet. New use cases are being created by the need for ...
Occupancy Estimation Through Visible Light Sensing (VLS)
(2019-05-01)
Visible light is everywhere around in our daily life. The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye is called visible light; it is in the range between 350-750 nm, which is roughly between 400-750 ...
Implementation of a Hardware Algorithm for Integer Division
(2019-08)
A hardware algorithm for integer division proposed by Naofumi Takagi, ShunsukeKadowaki and Kazuyoshi Takagi is implemented using the hardware-descriptive language called Verilog. The hardware algorithm is based on ...
Impact of wildfires on power systems
(2021-12)
Power systems, particularly those located near forests, are exposed to wildfires during summer seasons especially in regions with high temperatures. This issue may impact on operation of power grids and thus their reliability ...
Power-efficient collaborative fall detection using a wearable device and a robot
(2022-12)
With increasing life expectancy, the technological sub-field of elderly care is expected to rise in importance. This growing population has put a strain on current elderly care facilities and personnel. This research work ...
NAND flash compiler using the SkyWater 130nm Process
(2022-05)
NAND flash memory is commonly used for data storage, with applications in SSDs and flash drives. NAND flash research in academia can be limited by insufficient access to memory of varied sizes. This thesis discusses the ...
Investigation into transmission line radiation
(2023-05)
An empirical study has been performed to investigate the radiation mechanisms that yield emissions from two-conductor transmission line circuits at microwave frequencies up to 8.5~GHz. The measured signal levels established ...
