Dynamic control of high-voltage actuator arrays by light-pattern projection on photoconductive switches

Herbert Shea, Amir Firouzeh, Edouard Franck Vincent Gustave Leroy

The ability to control high-voltage actuator arrays relies, to date, on expensive microelectronic processes or on individual wiring of each actuator to a single off-chip high-voltage switch. Here we present an alternative approach that uses on-chip photoco ...

Closed-loop technique using gain balance for fast Brillouin Optical Time-Domain Analysis

Luc Thévenaz, Zhisheng Yang, Li Zhang, Ana Gabriela Correa Mena

A closed-loop servo control based on the gain ratio of two probing frequencies is proposed for fast BOTDA, where the feedback is independent of probe and pump loss, making it robust in harsh environment. ...

Closed-loop technique based on gain balancing for real-time Brillouin optical time-domain analysis

Luc Thévenaz, Zhisheng Yang, Li Zhang, Ana Gabriela Correa Mena

A closed-loop servo control based on balancing the gain of two probing frequencies is proposed for real-time Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) without post-processing. With the most basic BOTDA hardware setup, the system can perform measuremen ...

Bio-inspired design and validation of the Efficient Lockable Spring Ankle (ELSA) prosthesis

Mohamed Bouri, François André Heremans

Over the last decade, active lower-limb prostheses demonstrated their ability to restore a physiological gait for transfemoral amputees by supplying the required positive energy balance during daily life locomotion activities. However, the added-value of s ...

Switching Kinetics Control of W-Based ReRAM Cells in Transient Operation by Interface Engineering

Yusuf Leblebici, Thomas La Grange, Mahmoud Hadad, Cecilia Giovinazzo

Tungsten (W) is one of the most promising materials to be used in resistive random-access memory electrodes due to its low work function and compatibility with semiconductors, which raises the possibility of device integration, scalability, and low power c ...

An integrator-differentiator TIA using a multi-element pseudo-resistor in its DC servo loop for enhanced noise performance

Georg Fantner, Jens Anders

In this paper, we present an integrator-differentiator transimpedance amplifier (TIA) featuring a multielement pseudo-resistor (MEPR) in the DC feedback path for improved noise performance in the presence of non-zero DC input currents. The presented protot ...

Comparative Study of Haptic Interfaces for Bilateral Teleoperation of VTOL Aerial Robots

Felix Stephan Schill

Force feedback is a powerful sensory cue that can provide a user, remotely teleoperating a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aerial robotic vehicle, with an enhanced perception of the robot motion and interaction with the local environment. The accepted ...

Conception et optimisation multicritère des échappements libres pour montres-bracelets mécaniques

Thierry Conus

The watchmaking crisis of the nineteen-seventies in effect marked an interruption of scientific research into the working of mechanical watches. For the past few years, a revival of interest in these timepieces has given industrialists the financial resour ...

Sub-ppm multi-gas photoacoustic sensor

Luc Thévenaz, Jean-Philippe Besson

A photoacoustic multi-gas sensor using tuneable laser diodes in the near-infrared region is reported. An optimized resonant configuration based on an acoustic longitudinal mode is described. Automatic tracking of the acoustic resonance frequency using a pi ...

Contribution à l'accroissement des performances du processus de µEDM par l'utilisation d'un robot à dynamique élevée et de haute précision

Cédric Joseph

Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) is an attractive subtractive method for complex 3d structurization of hard and very hard conductive and semi-conductive materials. The machining capabilities of a material do not depend on its hardness but on its electric ...
