The Global City Teams Challenge (GCTC) was successfully launched by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and US Ignite with a kick-off event at NIST on September 29-30. At this two day event, we had more than 350 on-site and remote attendees who came together to present project ideas and form Action Clusters on cyber-physical systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) for smart cities around the world.

Abstract:
This project aims to enable cyber--physical systems that can be worn on the body in order to one day allow their users to touch, feel, and manipulate computationally simulated three--dimensional objects or digital data in physically realistic ways, using the whole hand. It will do this by precisely measuring touch and movement--induced displacements of the skin in the hand, and by reproducing these signals interactively, via new technologies to be developed in the project.

Abstract:
A more recent thrust of our work in this project focuses on continuous control tasks performed by a human operator. Tracking random-appearing and oscillatory signals is a human in the loop task that has been used in many areas such as piloting of vehicles, rehabilitation engineering, and neuroscience. Understanding the control strategies in a human operator for these tracking tasks is of great importance in these areas.

Abstract:
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a promising technology for activating muscles in spinal cord injured (SCI) patients. The objective of our project has been to develop an intuitive user interface and control system for FES that allows high-level tetraplegic patients to regain the use of their own arm. This work has had two primary outcomes: contributions to the development of a technology that benefits those with high-level SCI, and the development of biologically-inspired design principles for cyber-physical systems.

Abstract:
Telerobotic systems are cyber-physical systems where human operators and robots exchange information using a combination of publicly available communication networks and temporary ad-hoc wireless and satellite networks.

Abstract:
The last decade has seen increasing studies on bacteria and other cells-integrated bio-hybrid microrobot. A major motivation of them is to apply such kind of microsystems into targeted drug delivery system. Although various fabrication techniques have been developed to improve the efficacy of the system, control of the bio- hybrid microrobot is severely understudied, especially at population level. This poses an challenge for further application of the bio-hybrid microrobots, such as targeted drug delivery engineering.
