Bozkurt receives NSF CAREER Award
Dr. Alper Bozkurt, an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North Carolina State University, has received a Faculty Early Career Development Award from the National Science Foundation (NSF). The award, known as the NSF CAREER Award, is one of the highest honors given by NSF to young faculty in science and engineering.
Researchers from North Carolina State University and the University of Delaware have developed an algorithm that can quickly and accurately reconstruct hyperspectral images using less data..jpg){kind=small}
B. Jayant Baliga, Distinguished University Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North Carolina State University, will be inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame.
ECE Researchers have developed techniques that can be used to create ideal geometric phase holograms for any kind of optical pattern – a significant advance over the limitations of previous techniques. The holograms can be used to create new types of displays, imaging systems, telecommunications technology and astronomical instruments. A geometric phase hologram is a […]
Tahmid Latif, under the advisement of Dr. Alper Bozkurt, placed second in The Graduate School’s inaugural 3 Minute Thesis competition, a test of both his engineering and communication skills. Tahmid’s PhD research in the iBionicS Labuses Madagascar hissing cockroaches as search and rescue “roach-bots.” With electrodes implanted into the roach antennae and electronic backpack, Tahmid uses neurostimulation […]
Michael Escuti received funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to study and make novel hologram technologies. He created a tool that did much more. The technology he developed offers a new way to manipulate light, with applications from studying alien worlds to making cellphones more energy efficient.
Dr. Aranya Chakrabortty and Dr. Alexandra Duel-Hallen (Sasha) have been awarded $600,000 from the Division of Computer and Network Systems (CNS) of the US National Science Foundation to develop an advanced design architecture that will enable integration of high-speed communication networks with wide-area control of large power systems using Synchronized Phasor Measurements (or "Synchrophasors").
Researchers at the Nanosystems Engineering Research Center for Advanced Self-Powered Systems of Integrated Sensors and Technologies (ASSIST) - a National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering Research Center (ERC) led by NC State - are working to pull these wearables into the future through dramatic reduction in power consumption and novel sensor and low-power computing technologies. 
FREEDM, a National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering Research Center (ERC) headquartered on Centennial Campus, received positive feedback from NSF during a spring site visit and learned that the center will be fully funded through year 10.
