ROAD TEMPERATURE MODELLING WITHOUT IN-SITU SENSORS

In Situ Monitoring of Temperature inside Lithium-Ion Batteries by Flexible Micro Temperature Sensors

Lithium-ion secondary batteries are commonly used in electric vehicles, smart phones, personal digital assistants (PDA), notebooks and electric cars. These lithium-ion secondary batteries must charge and discharge rapidly, causing the interior temperature to rise quickly, raising a safety issue. Over-charging results in an unstable voltage and current, causing potential safety problems, such as...

Road regulation sensing with in-vehicle sensors

The purpose of this research work is twofold. The first problem it attempts to address is the inference of regulators that control the traffic (i.e. traffic signs, traffic lights) for enriching maps with new features. The second is related with how we can assist the drivers by communicating the previously mined information in the context of driving safety. As data sources, we use in-car sensors...

Monitoring Enzymatic Reactions with In Situ Sensors

In previous publications and presentations we have described our construction of a laboratory-on-a-chip based on nanoliter capacity wells etched in silicon. We have described methods for dispensing reagents as well as samples, for preventing evaporation, for embedding electronics in each well to measure fluid volume per well in real-time, and for monitoring the production or consumption of NADH...
