Li-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used to power today’s portable electronics, electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and in utility scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs). High performance LIBs are becoming increasingly important to facilitate the ever-growing trend of electrification for achieving a low-carbon future. How to enable the design of high performance...

Eye tracking research has shown that teammates in complex systems often exhibit overlapping eye gaze during critical moments of operation. This finding has driven the development of a new emerging technology called gaze sharing, which involves real-time visualization of team members’ eye movements on their respective displays. Initial evaluations of gaze sharing have primarily focused...

The introduction of surgical robotic technology and systems in the operating room has changed the paradigm of how surgical team members physically and cognitively interact with each other and the technology. This shift has highlighted the necessity to reevaluate the changing ergonomic demands and surgical workflow. This presentation will highlight the impacts of robotic surgical...

AI can already solve sophisticated problems ranging from playing games, autonomous driving, and music generation—given enough observational data for training. The core of such success resides in efficient algorithms, compliant hardware and robust computing, all implemented using carefully curated data collected before the training phase. Thus, machines learn in a “sterile” domain, under clean, controlled...
