We'd have to known I'm glad to talk to
00:00:02
you a balding to do for tickling
00:00:04
engineering sometimes there is some
00:00:05
confusion because that in frame should
00:00:08
skull with any like taken would
00:00:09
understand what it looks very old
00:00:11
fashioned. But actually electrical
00:00:14
engineering used the model for part of
00:00:16
that we have around because we have
00:00:18
electronics on another like occurring
00:00:20
that may him almost everything that we
00:00:22
touch every day so we came into this
00:00:25
this pen from developing devices to
00:00:29
start in the brain to all picks up
00:00:31
button optics buns they're puts and I
00:00:33
would describe just in the next slides.
00:00:37
So we are we are a group of about
00:00:40
starting from the students six under
00:00:43
the nineteen students. We have
00:00:45
relatively faculty member and about
00:00:47
three hundred and twenty stuff we have
00:00:49
housing the read part of the campus. D
00:00:53
thanks to for the shop we have red
00:00:55
roofs now we have a eighteen research
00:00:59
laboratories in eleven group so that's
00:01:01
the distribution off the faculty
00:01:03
basically seven for professional
00:01:05
success scripts and five assistant we
00:01:09
run one bachelor programme one master
00:01:11
program and we have two doctoral
00:01:13
programs one is joined with my
00:01:15
engineering it depends shell there he
00:01:22
is these interesting feature that they
00:01:24
got the like to the into the small that
00:01:26
is activities that typical or within
00:01:29
the placing all in for example computer
00:01:33
science communication science out side
00:01:37
one ideas that the teams did and that
00:01:39
explains a little bit some of our
00:01:41
choices we are very much related to the
00:01:43
physical layer things to develop an of
00:01:47
product of artifacts that are touch
00:01:48
about but still we have tested the goal
00:01:51
beyond the electrical properties and
00:01:53
getting to the software get into the
00:01:55
data structures getting to the
00:01:57
materials as well the interface to make
00:01:59
and we have a basic three axis of
00:02:03
inside doubly one is on computer in
00:02:06
communication engineering the one is on
00:02:09
second device and the third one is some
00:02:11
power and and now we have a barriers
00:02:19
activities but I like just to give you
00:02:21
only five points or five areas that we
00:02:24
think there are you areas for us just
00:02:27
to be for the first one is non
00:02:29
electronic devices fancier with so
00:02:32
we're looking to how exploit new
00:02:33
materials and devices to create new
00:02:35
computational structures the second one
00:02:39
is related to signal processing and
00:02:41
machine learning typically it would be
00:02:43
a soft activity that could be placed
00:02:44
into computer science but is within
00:02:47
double E so we have signal image we do
00:02:49
processing as well as machine learning
00:02:51
we deal with energy specifically with
00:02:55
my energy. So coupling energy system
00:02:58
designing control with communication
00:03:00
systems and control system we are
00:03:03
especially interested in encouraging
00:03:06
the system so biosystems all playing
00:03:09
electric tell with by your acquisition
00:03:13
devices. PD integration and button
00:03:16
system devices and then we have strong
00:03:19
in communication hardware design. So
00:03:22
setting up a system at high frequency
00:03:24
transmission and optics and put on now
00:03:29
rather than giving you a a on the list
00:03:32
of the professors that with teen doubly
00:03:35
that activity that many and what they
00:03:37
do I will give you some not it's still
00:03:40
for these five areas I will show you
00:03:43
some of the activities that we do they
00:03:45
think are rather of course I'm skipping
00:03:49
details I am not going to talk about
00:03:51
everybody and I'm sorry for that but I
00:03:53
think that will give you a clear
00:03:55
message to you so that's that's from
00:03:59
the future of electronics we have
00:04:01
activities in devices for example
00:04:04
uncontrollable like devices another
00:04:06
wires. We know that was always not to
00:04:09
finish them or it's going to last for a
00:04:11
few more years. We want to be part of
00:04:13
the goal the technology also computing
00:04:16
in those also think that these devices
00:04:18
can be the basis for building sense of
00:04:20
interfaces to the extra work we have a
00:04:23
worldly there in designing devices on
00:04:26
flecked electronics that is this your
00:04:29
quilts like roughing or moment being on
00:04:31
this little fight it out flat we can
00:04:34
build transistors. And we have also
00:04:37
great activities in designing members
00:04:40
and devices based on none of structures
00:04:44
we also very strong instead remember
00:04:49
that a very strong contribution all the
00:04:52
area came from double E came from like
00:04:55
adults from the development of little
00:04:58
power electronics and I think this is
00:05:00
the main reason for which you serious
00:05:03
recognise in engineering for all the
00:05:05
world what people think about
00:05:06
separating than they do think of low
00:05:08
power electronics. We have a very
00:05:11
strong hope that do electronic design
00:05:16
simple design for example in dealing
00:05:18
with fast I know digital compression
00:05:21
and we have a very strong relation any
00:05:24
interaction with IBM as well with
00:05:27
technologies for three D indication
00:05:29
that these stacking values keeps one on
00:05:31
top of each other to make in they get
00:05:33
assistance and that's an activity that
00:05:35
we do in conjunction with some some
00:05:37
electronic go into the field off a
00:05:41
signal processing and image analysis we
00:05:44
have several research there we are very
00:05:48
strong facial image analysis and read
00:05:51
the image reconstruction. This is for
00:05:55
just images of people and similarly
00:05:58
we're very strong in medical imaging
00:06:00
any collector makes and it's really
00:06:02
it's very much also to the research
00:06:04
done on the brain systems electronic
00:06:09
system required to acquire they
00:06:11
compresses sensing is one of the prince
00:06:15
about technologies that to day allow us
00:06:18
to extract information from sensors
00:06:21
using limited bandwidth we also have
00:06:25
activities within this stupidest string
00:06:27
processing and communications systems
00:06:29
that are quite roundabout within the we
00:06:34
all know that energy is a very
00:06:36
important topic for industry force that
00:06:39
someone. So we have various activities
00:06:42
in energy starting from our electronic
00:06:45
devices like gallium nitride devices
00:06:49
going toward electronic subsystems for
00:06:53
power system that are controlling
00:06:56
conversion systems where you need to
00:06:58
have integration of various
00:07:00
technologies. And getting to the
00:07:02
development of smart rates we have a
00:07:05
smart you don't campus here again we
00:07:07
see a a pictorial view of this
00:07:10
Marguerite where we can capture energy
00:07:14
from the rules where we have solar
00:07:16
panels store energy we have an
00:07:19
extremely large device which is unique
00:07:21
in the world for storing energy as what
00:07:24
is distributing the power on campus.
00:07:27
And this research project is also
00:07:29
highly connected with communication
00:07:32
technology you know that to have safe
00:07:35
and secure distribution of electrical
00:07:37
power going from distributing power to
00:07:43
distributing information we know that
00:07:45
another topic which is very popular in
00:07:48
research yes the internet of things.
00:07:50
And the development of devices that the
00:07:54
are on the internet of things. So we
00:07:58
have several activities in them but
00:08:00
that and cyber physical system
00:08:02
including system for Madison and for
00:08:05
that a Madison the example that we have
00:08:07
in this chapter littlest at the mark
00:08:10
Carter that really was initiated within
00:08:13
the NFL and that we need to the ability
00:08:17
of monitoring heart rate off main
00:08:19
individuals at the same time another
00:08:23
bodyguard and I get off well double E
00:08:27
is the development of by your sensors
00:08:29
in by electronics these are basically
00:08:32
novel lab one should technologies that
00:08:34
target precision Madison our projects
00:08:38
based on integrating sensors with
00:08:41
electronics and leveraging specific
00:08:44
buyer detection system to get high
00:08:47
precision measurement system indy
00:08:52
communication domain where working both
00:08:56
on five G wireless network in the area
00:08:59
of baseband in the area of write your
00:09:01
frequency as well in the area off and
00:09:04
then us and Nina Nina twice and then
00:09:06
that use novel not here you have four
00:09:09
and then the shaping. And and then that
00:09:12
idea from deliver again we are very
00:09:15
strong in the communication I work part
00:09:18
that is our mission. And but we have
00:09:22
also activities that relate to the
00:09:25
software E optics we are extremely
00:09:29
strong a local discovery has been the
00:09:32
one O one Reading frequent second
00:09:34
generator does that can I we generate
00:09:37
various bikes in the spectral domain
00:09:40
off light that can be feel that that
00:09:43
can be used for specific application as
00:09:45
well as the creation off integrated to
00:09:48
burgundy known sources of light was me
00:09:54
on the these nuggets of research I it's
00:09:59
important to stress that the double the
00:10:02
leads at least for cooperative
00:10:06
activities or centre the first one is
00:10:09
called not the out of CH it's an
00:10:11
activity that I've been running for
00:10:13
seven yes it's a nine year program by
00:10:15
this this consideration and the mission
00:10:18
is are we exploiting the use of Michael
00:10:22
and nanotechnology to work the
00:10:24
development of obviously with the
00:10:25
system for health and the environment
00:10:28
these activity involves not only a bit
00:10:31
fail but also yeah I and several can't
00:10:34
I'll universities as well as in the
00:10:35
best of applied science say about
00:10:38
companies up we join oddity a nazi age
00:10:41
and they use nudity dossier just the
00:10:44
bridge to connect their activities with
00:10:48
the research that's done at the our
00:10:50
schools doubly also holes that the S if
00:10:55
you are for a centre for energy and
00:10:59
power the egg to the rubber apollo know
00:11:01
which is an extremely important
00:11:03
activity in the domain low energy we
00:11:07
have a strong hope that deals with J
00:11:10
peg J peg standardisation as you know
00:11:13
all you know images are used for all
00:11:15
the world. And the R compression as
00:11:17
well that the management is extremely
00:11:19
important. And we have a centre for by
00:11:23
imagining that are joints at bay fell
00:11:26
with you kneel and with the interest of
00:11:28
Geneva led by professor pure run that
00:11:31
deals are only we've acquisition and
00:11:34
management off a biomedical images we
00:11:40
have been working together with several
00:11:42
companies these are just some logos of
00:11:44
companies in there I in the in the
00:11:46
electronics is our company seen the
00:11:49
energy domain again this list are far
00:11:52
from being exhaustive. And we would
00:11:54
like actually more companies to get
00:11:56
involved with us not only to profit of
00:11:59
the technology that we're developing
00:12:01
but especially to hire the students
00:12:03
were the one who carried information
00:12:06
what the one where really the product
00:12:08
of RF four we have several ongoing
00:12:13
project with companies some deal with
00:12:16
devices related to energy an energy
00:12:18
conversion some deal with chip
00:12:20
technology some bill we have solar
00:12:23
cells and some other deals we have
00:12:26
devices for biology and medicine double
00:12:32
ES being very good in the been off
00:12:35
companies this is again to the flow
00:12:38
lost at least of companies that this
00:12:40
and all in the last twenty years yeah
00:12:44
many and some of these are being
00:12:45
successful and finally yeah we like to
00:12:50
summarise what are the strengths of
00:12:52
this if you we are very proud of saying
00:12:55
that we have an excellent innings of
00:12:57
structure we have a good buildings we
00:12:59
have two laboratories and these allow
00:13:01
us to they use of trained and dedicated
00:13:05
stuff to form very good and the god and
00:13:08
graduate you don't we have a strong
00:13:11
connection the swiss any intonational
00:13:14
mean this like is they must Cinderella
00:13:16
bounds of our work again we would like
00:13:18
to have more interaction with this this
00:13:21
industry around us because we in that
00:13:24
we have many things to spell and do you
00:13:27
have two D local industry one strength
00:13:31
of doubly used that we combine both
00:13:35
your in practise in teaching and
00:13:38
research we think that it's extremely
00:13:40
important. But only for the reputation
00:13:43
but to have a strong educational
00:13:45
program because our rabbit are the one
00:13:48
work here in the flat a star is
00:13:51
recognition we got story recognition we
00:13:55
have the barriers rankings before can
00:13:58
someone I found the global one this is
00:14:00
just a picture of the local one one
00:14:03
local one that puts W at the best fell
00:14:07
in the thirteen position in the world
00:14:09
of the program and the fifth in your we
00:14:11
knows that is rankings are like beauty
00:14:13
contest. But it's important to be in
00:14:16
the top part well past us in double E
00:14:22
ever see if many awards UW counts a
00:14:28
several you have figure and for
00:14:30
advanced one constant prone six tapping
00:14:33
runs yeah then follows of I triple EACM
00:14:37
another institution within the faculty
00:14:40
and have I use the word that that
00:14:41
listed there including to present an
00:14:44
academy of science one of your opened
00:14:46
one of that someone the establish
00:14:50
faculty member. I also balance by a
00:14:53
strong group of young faculty members
00:14:56
that deal with research mean. Imagine
00:15:00
areas and we are very proud of our
00:15:02
young faculty members because those
00:15:04
represent the future of a paper fell
00:15:06
and W again yeah they have some
00:15:09
pictures with the field of interest
00:15:11
ravine machine learning by electronics
00:15:16
communication high power electronics
00:15:19
optics in communication power
00:15:21
electronic device acoustic and then the
00:15:24
take wave technology with these are all
00:15:28
very very important areas of research
00:15:31
is that a guy thing which we can we
00:15:33
just to login does the community around
00:15:35
us is to in conclusion I like to stress
00:15:40
that W yeah the mission to educated
00:15:43
vein future doubly engineers. We do
00:15:46
cutting edge research. We transfer
00:15:49
knowledge to create jobs and companies.
00:15:53
And we just like to do more thank you
