The research groups carries out activities in the field of biomedical engineering, microelectronics, biomedical electronics, wireless communication systems, wireless charging systems, energy harvesting and using computer vision in robotics, medicine and agriculture.
In the last several years, several integrated circuits were designed in the field of microelectronics. The most significant one is a patent for the energy efficient system for wireless transfer of analogue and digital signals and a DC/DC converter based on charge pumps. Furthermore, the research group has experience in developing different systems for biological signals measuring. Systems for wireless measuring of oxygen saturation and body temperature have been developed. The research group works on the development of new efficient robust modulation procedures based on wireless data transfer.
Research in the field of wireless charging and energy harvesting have resulted in the development of a capacitive wireless power system for sensor low power circuits and wireless charging system for electronic devices up to 5 W. The research group for the application of computer vision in bioengineering has considerable experience in the development and application of advanced technologies for the analysis of 2D and 3D data obtained by regular or 3D cameras. The developed technologies and algorithms are used in selecting and detecting various types of objects in space. In the field of agriculture, the technologies are used to differentiate fruits and vegetables on plants and detect rows of crops in fields. In the field of medicine, the technologies are used for carrying out a 2D and 3D analysis of chronic wounds, determining a percentage of a specific tissue sample in a wound and measuring physical parameters, latitude, surface and volume. The research group has submitted and been approved of three patent applications so far thus gaining experience in the protection of intellectual property.
