Visible to the public MetaSense: Calibration of Personal Air Quality Sensors in the Field

Abstract:

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) promise to change how we study and interact with physical world. CPS use sensors and actuators connected to an autonomic cyberinfrastructure. A key requirement for having dependable CPS is the correct calibration of their sensors. Unfortunately, the current state of the art is to calibrate sensors in laboratories, often manually. Moreover, commodity sensor precision degrades over time. Consequently, sensors must be periodically recalibrated.

Visible to the public GoingEasy® with Crowdsourcing – Building Cyber-Physical Systems for People with Visual Impairment

Abstract:

Many practical barriers continue to exist for a blind individual who strives to live an independent and active life, despite decades of development of assistive technologies. This project addresses the following two most prominent challenges: (1) disparity in information-sharing among people with visual impairment and its limited understanding by the research community; and (2) lack of methods and tools for effectively addressing the disparity.

Visible to the public Geolocated Allergen Sensing Platform (GASP)

Abstract:

This project combines Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) and gigabit networks to address major health concerns due to air pollution. A working demonstration of this project will be presented during the Global City Teams meeting in June 2015 with an update in June 2016. A wide range of health outcomes is affected by air pollution.
