Center for Project-Based Learning D-ITETOpen OpportunitiesNext-generation ultrasound (US) imaging demands exceptionally high data throughput, exceeding 90 Gbps for ultrafast applications. This project harnesses datacenter networking techniques—100G Ethernet, RDMA, and HPC-grade storage—to enable real-time streaming of raw US data at minimal latency. By integrating advanced optical interfaces and bypassing conventional CPU-intensive workflows, this project aims to achieve sustained multi-gigabit performance, paving the way for cutting-edge imaging analytics and machine learning within modern datacenter environments - Computer Communications Networks, Electrical Engineering

| Wearable, wirelessly connected sensors have become a common part of daily life, evolving step by step from their roots in sports and fitness to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of personalized healthcare. A key challenge in this evolution is designing devices that are unobtrusive, highly integrated, and energy efficient. These design requirements inherently demand smaller batteries, which must also support the significant power consumption of wireless communication interfaces. Capacitive Human Body Communication (HBC) offers a promising, power-efficient alternative to traditional RF-based communication, enabling point-to-multipoint data and energy exchange.
By using the conductive properties of the human body, a privacy-preserving wireless personal body area network (WBAN) can be created. Several low-power sensors such as ECG-tracker and insulin pumps can act as leaf devices, sending personal data to a body-central gateway, such as a smartwatch that further processes the data and establishes a connection to the cloud.

| The purpose of this project is to develop a magnetic resonance (MR)-compatible photoplethysmograph (PPG) system which could measure the raw PPG signal during MR image acquisition. The system consists of an optic sensor which measured the optic signal, a fiber optic cable which transmitted a near-infrared optic signal, a signal amplifier, and a filter for noise removal. - Integrated Circuits, Programming Languages, Software Engineering

| In many applications, from robotics to home and industry automation, localizing objects and people is an essential feature. Outdoor localization is generally performed using GNSS, GPS, which does not work in indoor scenarios. In this applications, systems like BLE and UWB tag-anchor system are commonly implemented. However, these systems involve the necessity of carrying a battery supplied tag together with the tracked object. This limits the applicability to human and/or animals, that are not happy to wear 24/7 electronic devices, or it can increase the system cost for industrial products. - Biomechanical Engineering, Clinical Engineering, Integrated Circuits
