Stanford inventors have developed a series of methods which can identify genetic variants and medical genotypes through the phasing of genetic data with the use of Mendelian inheritance as quality control.
Stanford researchers at the Salisbury Lab have prototyped a wearable, articulated robotic device that can be attached to a person at the hip or other location to augment human task productivity. This mechanical "third arm" has many uses such as assisting abled users (e.g.
Stanford researchers have developed a novel, non-tracking and low cost solar concentrator - Axially Graded Index LEns: AGILE - that has potential to change the economy of the solar cell industry.
Stanford researchers have developed a fast, multi-dimensional MRI procedure which records and correlates at least five dimensions of anatomic, physiologic, and functional information applicable for cardiac imaging.
Stanford researchers have invented a C-Aperture Nano-Tip which provides a new way to further enhance the optical resolution down to smaller than 15 nm.
Stanford researchers have designed a capacitively coupled electrostatic device (CCED) for measuring high voltage. The CCED is compact, low cost, safe, easy to use, accurate, and actively calibrated.
Osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis, is a degenerative joint disease in which mechanical factors play a very important role. Knee osteoarthritis in particular is sensitive to mechanical factors associated with the biomechanics of walking.
Stanford researchers have developed an algorithm to achieve uniform excitation and image uniformity in the presence of a non-uniform transmit field while limiting local power deposition or "hot spots" using multiple transmit channels and the methid of "parallel transmit" or p
Engineers in Prof. Mark Cutkosky's laboratory have patented a compact, intuitive, haptic vehicle feedback system that communicates multi-dimensional information to drivers through the grip of the steering wheel.
Researchers in Professor Zhenan Bao's group at Stanford University have developed a biomimetic soft electronic skin (e-skin) with multiple levels of biologically inspired patterning that can detect the direction of applied forces.
A team of Stanford researchers has developed a precisely controlled hydrogel drug delivery system that prevents scarring and promotes wound healing in large, full thickness wounds.
Researchers in the Robust Systems Group at Stanford University developed a method for dividing the available resistance window in a multi-bit per cell Resistive RAM into varying resistance distributions to improve read and program performance.
