Researchers at Stanford have reported the first high energy density shape memory polymer based on the formation of strain-induced supramolecular nanostructures, which immobilize stretched chains to store entropic energy.
Pedestrian movement prediction is a critical aspect of driver-assistance and autonomous cars. This requires predicting both human poses and human trajectories based on keypoints in an egocentric setting.
A Stanford bioengineering researcher developed an optical sensor based muscle and body motion tracking system for use with prosthetics and wearable human machine interfaces.
A team of Stanford researchers has invented a product that can be used to provide relief to patients with hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), with a particular focus on palmar hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating of the hands).
Researchers at Stanford have developed a method for instructing the steering system of an autonomous vehicle to perform a lateral steering action, e.g., when changing lanes or repositioning within a lane.
Researchers at Stanford have advanced the concept of an "Anticipatory Control Interface" that informs the driver of a partially automated vehicle of its lateral trajectory plan.
Stanford inventors have developed a rechargeable, fluid-based shock absorber material for use in space constrained environments. Foam is the most common form of shock absorption material, but its force exerted is proportional to the degree of displacement.
The Zhenan Bao Research Group at Stanford University developed and manufactured a photo-curable, directly patternable, stretchable, and highly conductive polymer that is ideal for bioelectronic applications, and stretchable electronic devices.
Scientists in the Zhenan Bao Research Group at Stanford developed a process for direct photo-patterning of electronic polymers that improves device density of elastic circuits over 100x.
The Zhenan Bao Research Group at Stanford University has designed an intrinsically stretchable polymeric matrix that allows seamless integration with physically crosslinked PEDOT:PSS, while stabilizing its high stretchability, and high conductivity after all necessary fabricat
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.
