Phonons are the main heat carriers in semiconductor devices. In small devices, heat is not driven by a local temperature gradient, but by local points of heat input and removal. This complicates theoretical modeling. Study of the…
The localization of sound sources by the human brain is computationally simulated from a neurobiological perspective. The simulation includes the neural representation of temporal differences in acoustic signals between the ipsilateral and…
We present an open-access dataset of over 8000 acoustic impulse from 160 microphones spread across the body and affixed to wearable accessories. The data can be used to evaluate audio capture and array processing systems using wearable…
In mm-wave networks, cell sizes are small due to high path and penetration losses. Mobiles need to frequently switch softly from one cell to another to preserve network connections and context. Each soft handover involves the mobile…
With the rapid development of wireless communication technology, wireless access points (AP) and internet of things (IoT) devices have been widely deployed in our surroundings. Various types of wireless signals (e.g., Wi-Fi, LoRa, LTE) are…
The human somatosensory cortex is intimately linked to other central brain functions such as vision, audition, mechanoreception, and motor planning and control. These links are established through brain learning, and display a considerable…
We propose a portable cartridge based lab-on-a-chip platform. The main sensing mechanism uses high frequency acoustic waves. Feasibility of two different transducers has been investigated for biological measurements. We used zincoxide (ZnO)…
In this thesis, we present an articulated, empirical view on what human music making is, and on how this fundamentally relates to computation. The experimental evidence which we obtained seems to indicate that this view can be used as a…
Ultrasound is an adjunct tool to mammography that can quickly and safely aid physicians with diagnosing breast abnormalities. Clinical ultrasound often assumes a constant sound speed to form B-mode images for diagnosis. However, the various…
Interactive Sonification is a well-known guidance method in navigation tasks. Researchers have repeatedly suggested the use of interactive sonification in neuronavigation and image-guided surgery. The hope is to reduce clinicians' cognitive…
In guide dog training, trainers use haptic information transmitted through the handle of the harness worn by the guide dog to understand the dog's state. They then apply appropriate force to the handle to train the dog to make correct…
While the acoustic properties of solid foams have been abundantly characterized, sound propagation in liquid foams remains poorly understood. Recent studies have investigated the transmission of ultrasound through three-dimensional…
Sound morphing is the process of gradually and smoothly transforming one sound into another to generate novel and perceptually hybrid sounds that simultaneously resemble both. Recently, diffusion-based text-to-audio models have produced…
The human ear canal couples the external sound field to the eardrum and the solid parts of the middle ear. Therefore, knowledge of the acoustic impedance of the human ear is widely used in the industry to develop audio devices such as…
Our hands reveal important information such as the pulsing of our veins which help us determine the blood pressure, tremors indicative of motor control, or neurodegenerative disorders such as Essential Tremor or Parkinson's disease. The…
When operating a machine, the operator needs to know some spatial relations, like the relative location of the target or the nearest obstacle. Often, sensors are used to derive this spatial information, and visual displays are deployed as…
The paper presents the method of transferring PCM (Pulse-Code Modulation) based audio messages through SMS (Short Message Service) over GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) network. As SMS is text based service, and could not send…
The human auditory system is able to distinguish the vocal source of thousands of speakers, yet not much is known about what features the auditory system uses to do this. Fourier Transforms are capable of capturing the pitch and harmonic…
Smart factories leverage advanced technologies to optimize manufacturing processes and enhance efficiency. Implementing worker tracking systems, primarily through camera-based methods, ensures accurate monitoring. However, concerns about…
Robotic assistants reduce the manual efforts being put in by humans in their day-to-day tasks. In this paper, we develop a voice-controlled personal assistant robot. The robot takes the human voice commands by its own built-in microphone.…
