Optical fiber angle sensors for the PrHand prosthesis: Development and application in grasp types recognition with machine learning (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This work presents the instrumentation of the PrHand upper-limb prosthesis with optical fiber sensors to measure the angle of the proximal interphalangeal joint. The angle sensors are based on bending-induced loss and are fabricated with polymer opti...

Control of friction by imposing vibration between sliding surfaces and its influence on the efficiency of gears (2022)
Thesis

The worm and wheel type gear arrangement is the usual choice for heavy duty applications requiring large operating torques. However, it is dominated by the sliding action of gear teeth which causes high frictional losses that significantly impact eff...

Rapid identification of foodborne pathogens in limited resources settings using a handheld Raman spectroscopy device (2022)
Journal Article

Featured Application: Here, we report a practical and precise method for the identification of foodborne pathogenic bacteria using a Raman handheld device equipped with an orbital raster scan (ORS) technology that enables the system to generate a dis...
