JawSense: Recognizing Unvoiced Sound using a Low-cost Ear-worn System

JawSense explores a new wearable system enabling a novel form of human-computer interaction based on unvoiced jaw movement tracking. JawSense allows its user to interact with computing machines just by moving their jaw.

LiftRight: Quantifying performance measures for fitness domains

LiftRight is a low-cost abstraction that captures upper body dynamics and computes several performance measures accurately.

A-spiro: Toward perpetual breathing monitoring

A-spiro is a single-point wearable sensing technique to estimate respiratory flow and volume, in addition to respiratory rate.

Panoptes: Infrastructure Camera Control

Panoptes is a novel view virtualization system for steerable infrastructure cameras. Infrastructure cameras are often installed with a specific application in mind and their view is carefully adjusted to fit this application. Panoptes breaks this one-to-one binding between camera and the application by leveraging the steerable nature of many of these cameras.

LookUp: Enabling Pedestrian Safety Services via Shoe Sensing

LookUp is a novel shoe sensor based approach for sub-meter location classification in noisy outdoor urban environments.

Detection of diabetic retinopathy using smartphones

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. We propose a low cost postable smartphone-based decision support system for initial screening of diabetic retinopathy using image analysis and machine learning techniques.
