GUI Development for Interactive Computational Network Explorer

Project Description This project requires the skills of a motivated student with a CS background to develop a high-performance graphical user interface that allows users to interact with Computational Pattern-Producing Networks. Our lab uses CPPN representations to control the geometry of soft robotic actuators, and investigates the application of automated...

Computational Design and 3D Printing of Robot Structures and Entire Robots

Project Description Imagine having a piece of software that could understand what you wanted a robot to look like without you needing to actually design the robot. This tool would convert your specifications about robot capabilities into a robot physical design. This is the tool that we’re building in the...

Ultraviolet (UV) Light Technology for Microbe and Biofilm Disinfection

Project Description UV light is an exciting alternative to chlorine for disinfection of water. This research will use ultraviolet (UV) light technology for disinfection purposes, particularly for control of microbial growth and biofilm development in water distribution systems. The impact of UV light on microorganisms will be studied through microbiological...

Social Justice and Environmental Quality in Denver - Air Quality Sensing

Project Description The student will work with mechanical and environmental engineers to test and deploy personal air quality monitors with participants in a research study being conducted in North Denver. The students responsibilities will include sensor calibration, providing sensors to research participants and training them on sensor use, as well...

Building a Legacy in Engineering

Project Description The Building Legacy in Engineering research project will take an inter-institution approach to create an authentic and scalable inquiry-based, active learning environment focused on sustainable civic innovation. This project is designed to document and validate the approach to be replicated by other university partnerships to strengthen communities. The...

Investigation of Honey Bee Behavior Mechanics

Project Description Western honey bee behavior and communication has been a subject of study for hundreds of years, yet much remains unknown about how they coordinate with each other to succeed as a colony without a central leader. In the Peleg lab, we investigate how they accomplish tasks such as...

Investigating the Effects of Wildfires in Indoor Air Quality

Project Description The Vance Lab at the Â鶹ÊÓƵ specializes in indoor and outdoor air quality investigations, with a special focus on aerosols or particulate matter (PM). PM can range from a few nanometers to micrometers in size and can be generated from a variety of sources, from...

Global Positioning System (GPS) Software Defined Radios (SDRs) Research

Project Description Software Defined Radios are an ever increasing popular topic. The advent of low cost USB radio dongles such as the USRP and BladeRF as well as tools such as GNU radio have allowed for radio development to move into the software domain. GPS is a satellite-based navigation system...

GPS and Positioning/Navigation in the Mobile Phones

Project Description This project is to explore and exploit the satellite navigation / position engine / GPS within Android. Ideally making end result more more robust with higher integrity. The Android platform provides the majority of GPS/GNSS receivers across the world. Its integration within Android is interesting and many many...

Development of a Superconducting Microwave Resonator Open-Source Codebase

Project Description The Boulder Cryogenic Quantum Testbed (BCQT) is a research facility for developing and openly disseminating standard protocols to reproducibly measure the quality factor and performance characteristics of superconducting microwave resonators used in quantum computing circuits.The BCQT serves as a resource to academic and industry quantum research groups that...
