Research Experience For Undergraduates (REU): Research Participation in Sensor Technologies

REU网站计划，提供九个本科生 在传感器领域有研究机会的学生 技术正在更新。 主要项目是研究 传感器相关的现象，以产生科学的 知识，并将这些知识应用于传感器开发。 的 REU研究中心将成为传感器技术中心的一部分。 的 中心为教师和学生提供基础设施， 协作，交流思想，共同监督学生，并分享 资源 大约有一半的学生被选中 来自宾夕法尼亚大学以外的机构。 学生是由一个委员会根据学生的 学术潜力，研究兴趣，研究生态度 学习和研究的机会在母亲机构。 每一个被选中的学生将在一个或多个学生的密切监督下工作。 两名教师。 这些项目是根据其 教育价值，科学价值和前景 夏季后继续参与。 项目主题包括 光学、机械、微结构和微机械加工， 封装、基于神经网络的传感器和传感器接口。 多相流体输运的基础研究 微机械加工的流体结构将是 研究了 传感器和VLSI处理技术 利用神经网络进行有效的光学和声学模式识别 将研究网络概念。 的图像传感器 是以人眼为模型设计的。

The REU Site program which provides for nine undergraduate students with research opportunities in the area of sensor technologies is renewed. The main program is the study of sensor-related phenomena in order to generate scientific knowledge and to apply this knowledge to sensor development. The REU Site will be part of the Center for Sensor Technologies. The Center provides the infrastructure for faculty and students to collaborate, exchange ideas, co-supervise students, and share resources. Approximately one-half of the students are selected from institutions outside the University of Pennsylvania. Students are selected by a committee according to the students' academic potential, research interest, attitude towards graduate studies and research opportunities in the mother institution. Each selected student will work under close supervision of one or two faculty members. The projects are chosen based on their educational value, the scientific merit and the prospects for continuing involvement after the summer. Project topics include optical, mechanical, microstructures and micromachining, packaging, neural network based sensors and sensor interfacing. Fundamental studies of multi-phase fluid transport in photolithographically micro-machined fluidic structures will be investigated. Sensors and VLSI processing techniques for efficient optical and acoustical pattern recognition using neural network concepts will be studied. An image sensor which is modeled after human eye is being designed.
