Intel announced the winners of its second annual Hardware Security Academic Awards which are aimed at advancing innovative research addressing fundamental security challenges and boosting the industry’s ability to deliver more trustworthy foundational technologies. This year, Intel added a Test of Time award to the program honoring papers published more than 10 years ago which have demonstrated a significant and lasting impact in the security field. Cornell ECE Professor Ed Suh is the lead author of the 2003 paper which received the inaugural Test of Time Award: “AEGIS: Architecture for Tamper... Read more
In the quest to miniaturize camera lenses and other optical systems, Cornell researchers have, for the first time, defined the fundamental and practical limits of spaceplates. Read more
The President’s Council of Cornell Women has awarded a PCCW Affinito-Stewart Grant to ECE Assistant Professor Amal El-Ghazaly for her proposal titled “Highly Stretchable Pressure and Curvature Sensor for Soft Robots.” The proposed research aims to develop a stretchable material-based sensor array to provide soft robots with a high-resolution sense of “touch.” When soft robots (which are filled with air) touch an external object, air within the body is displaced and puts internal pressure on other surfaces of the robot in addition to the point of contact. These two simultaneous pressures on the... Read more
Researchers have developed collectives of microrobots - each slightly larger than a hair's width - capable of reconfiguring their swarm behavior to move in circles, bunch up into a clump, spread out like gas or form a straight line like beads on a string. Read more
ECE students, working with Senior Lecturer Joe Skovira, helped get the Bill Nye Solar Noon clock back up and running atop Rhodes Hall. Watch the videos from alumni magazine Cornellians! Read more
Is the best way to charge electric vehicles not to plug them in at all? ECE Associate Professor Khurram Afridi speaks about his research as part of Cornell Engineering Week on The Academic Minute, a project of WAMC public radio. Read more
Cornell engineers have created a deep-ultraviolet laser using semiconductor materials that show great promise for improving the use of ultraviolet light for sterilizing medical tools, purifying water and sensing hazardous gases. Read more
