PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Beginning in the late 1800’s, WPI’s Electrical Engineering Department was one of the first in the nation.
Today you will find teams of faculty members and students melding ideas and initiative to address the vital challenges of our time.
A collaborative research project between WPI and Toyota InfoTechnology Center on wireless communication in vehicles.
A team of WPI researchers is developing a system designed to locate and track the movement and health of emergency workers inside burning buildings. The system will enable site commanders to continuously monitor firefighters' movements and guide them to safety.
There is growing evidence that MRI is more accurate than mammography, but it is currently too expensive for routine cancer screening. Professor Reinhold Ludwig's work with magnetic coils is leading the way to images that are faster—and therefore cheaper—to produce.
Researchers at WPI's Wireless Innovation Laboratory are rethinking the way RF spectrum is utilized, developing new software-defined radio (SDR) and cognitive technology to enable dynamic spectrum access.
Professor Pahlavan’s Center for Wireless Information Network Studies and discover how wireless propagation and geolocation pose unique challenges in an indoor environment.
