We are thrilled to be featured in Medgadget’s Best Medical Technologies of 2017 for our "alleviating disability" technology- a device that allows an amputee to control each finger of his prosthetic hand.

The year 2017 is coming to a close, and as in years past, we look back with excitement at the medical technologies that have been gracing the pages of Medg

New technology- a robotic system to assist with for post-stroke or after a spinal cord injury

Background: The hand is the primary object for manipulating objects in our everyday life. Loss of the ability tocontrol the motion of individual fingers and the hand overall, has a significant impact on the qualityof life of an individual. Typically, the loss of the ability to control and manipulate...

: aimed at strengthening structural systems primarily composed of bars and strings, a method for constructing -dimensional from truncated octahedron elementary cells.

Tensegrity lattices for meta-materials and structural applications allow for the building of stronger structures that can be severely deformed without losing their load bearing ability.

New integrating stretchable components for wearable devices

Background: Stretchable microelectronics has garnered significant attention from research and industry due to its essential role in large-area, wearable, epidermal and biomedical electronics. However, this technology and its manufacturing processes have been severely constrained by their complexity?...

researchers have created a nanotextured surface that kills bacteria while not harming mammalian cells, a process with potential for attacking microbial contamination on implantable medical devices and food processing equipment

Close-up image shows an untreated stainless steel sample (left), and a sample that has been electrochemically treated to create a nanotextured surface. The sample was prepared by using a potentiostat in Professor Preet Singh's laboratory at Georgia Tech. (Credit: Rob Felt, Georgia Tech)

- new approach for and decomposition with a method called Configurable Hyper-referenced Associative Object Schema (CHAOS)

Background: Technical Analysts across various industries are challenged by massive datasets, including multi-source and multi-domain data. Two particularly vexing problems are the confluence of (A) Data Veracity, i.e., highly sparse, misaligned, noisy, and uncertain data, and (B) Data Variety, i.e.,...

New - of Aldehydes for Fast Evaporating & Copolymers Cross-linking- amazing potential and applications with this

Background: Rapid depolymerization and evaporation of polymers is useful for fabricating systems that have a fixed lifetime or targeted end-of-life. Depolymerization can prevent device detection and capture or reduce disposal in landfills, making it desired in a wide array of polymer-based component...
