| Mon 2 Jun 2025 11:00 - 12:00 |  Seminar: Smart Non-Contact Wireless Sensing for Biomedical Applications - Prof Yongxin Guo, City University of Hong KongCentre for Electronics Click Here to Join the Seminar Online Summary Traditional life activity detection methods rely on contact sensors, such as the electrocardiogram (ECG), ballistocardiogram (BCG), photoplethysmography (PPG), sphygmomanometer, mercury thermometer, breath belt, and accelerometer-based wearable devices. The contact sensor-based methods can cause physical and psychological discomfort to the users, and some do not support long-term monitoring. Smart wireless sensing of vital signs, including... |

| Fri 2 May 2025 10:30 - 11:30 |  Seminar: Cyber-Prosthetics as Body-centric Electromagnetic Devices: From Structural to Metal-free Bio-integrated AntennasCentre for Electronics Online Teams Link Summary The concept of Cyber-Prosthesis redefines implantable devices not only as mechanical surrogates but also as bodycentric wireless nodes capable of sensing, storing, and transmitting biophysical information. Within this paradigm, the structural components of prosthetic implants—such as orthopedic fixtures, dental screws, stents, and heart valves—are converted into antenna systems operating in the UHF RFID band. These systems communicate through body tissues by... |

| Wed 30 Apr 2025 10:30 - 11:30 |  Seminar: Interfacing Electromagnetics With Life Sciences and Medicine: Bioelectromagnetics and brain-machine interfaces for the treatment of cognitive conditions, glaucoma, and disorders of the retinaCentre for Electronics Online Teams Link Summary Although technical challenges are still daunting, the clinical utility of neuroprosthetics has increased dramatically over the past few years. This has been accomplished through the convergence of numerous disciplines, which have individually added fundamental understanding/capabilities to systems that interface with the human body to restore senses and movement, or treat prevalent diseases that have currently no foreseeable cure. In this talk, we will cover... |
| Thu 10 Apr 2025 10:00 - 12:00 | Seminar: Nano Dimension – Changing the way world manufactures Centre for Electronics Summary Chris Garden from NanoDimension will give a talk about their 3D printer and explain how it can be used for printed circuit board fabrication. The talk will be followed by Q&A and a demonstration of the printer. The content of the talk is... |
