Stanford engineers have developed an optical modulator to enable low-cost and high spatial-resolution time-of-flight imaging and LiDAR with low-cost standard image sensors.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a highly efficient (>90%) holographic beam steering method for obtaining distance information of objects nearby, with applications from autonomous vehicles to home appliances.
Magnetic field measurements using currently available devices require complex switching circuitry to mitigate the offset and noise present in measurements.
Stanford researchers at the Camarillo Lab have designed a real-time screening device system for predicting risk of concussion resulting from head impacts.
This compact, low-cost, high resolution angular position sensor is designed to improve the movement of rotary joints. The capacitive sensor, which includes two flat discs patterned with conductive material can be packaged in tight spaces.
Stanford researchers have patented the "Wolverine," a mobile, wearable haptic device designed for simulating the grasping of rigid objects in virtual reality.
This portfolio of inventions provides the tools for an advanced navigational system and panoramic virtual tours – technology that is incorporated in Google Street View.
Stanford engineers have created a patented method for fabricating highly sensitive piezoresistors on vertical walls of microstructures by epitaxial growth of doped silicon.
This patented technology is a magnetically actuated photonic crystal sensor system. It utilizes a photonic crystal (PC) coupled to magnetic material which is then mounted on an optical fiber.
