VR-based training modules for traffic incident management (TIM) responders
Seat belt, infant care seat, air bag, and drunk driving laws, as well as enhanced vehicle safety features have had a positive impact on decreasing motor-vehicle fatalities. However, in 2019 approximately 38,800 people lost their lives in the US as a result of automobile crashes and globally 1.35 million individuals were killed in 2018. TIM centers...

Vehicle safety device for active train crossing detection
and driver notification
Most level railroad crossings in the United States do not have active safety mechanisms such as gates, warning bells, or flashing lights to warn drivers of active train crossings. Furthermore, distractions and poor visibility can inhibit awareness of an approaching train. This makes level railroad crossings particularly dangerous and results in hundreds...

Wireless Wearable fNIR Sensor
Since the initial discovery in 1977 that brain tissue transparency to NIR (Near-Infrared Spectroscopy) light allowed a non-invasive and continuous method of measuring tissue oxygen saturation using transillumination in neonates, a number of applications to non-invasively measure blood oxygenation in muscle and the circulatory system have been developed....

Portable and inexpensive smart ring that measures
body composition over time.
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a method of measuring body fatb in relation to lean body mass. BIA determines the bioelectrical impedance, or opposition to the flow of an electric current through body tissues which can then be used to estimate body fat based on total body water and fat-free mass. During BIA, a very low-level electrical current...

A Wide-Open 3-Legged Parallel Robot to Improve Musculoskeletal Surgeries
BackgroundMusculoskeletal disorders are second most common cause of disability and globally afflict more than 100 million people per year. Current treatments, although effective, often result in unwanted side effects including X-ray exposure, nonunion of bone and poor healing. Robotic manipulation of bone to improve surgical accuracy is a newly emerging...

Novel Biocompatible Electrolytes for Implantable Flexible Electronics
Although battery technology was developed over one hundred years ago, the search for new materials with better performance, higher energy density, and extended regeneration cycles continues. One avenue of research is the search for new electrolytes as current liquid electrolytes are considered hazardous as they may leak, produce gases upon overcharging,...

3-D Reconstruction and Reality Augmentation using
TechnologyA marker-less augmented reality method that is operable in mobile applications is proposed in this invention. In particular, the invention works through a projection of color-coded light on a 3D object. A camera captures this image, which is then analyzed to obtain the correspondence between the deformation of the observed light pattern with...
