Manipulating Everyday Objects with Prosthetic Hands
In this project, students learn how prostheses that use robotic technology can improve the lives of people with disabilities. In the laboratory, the students use Lego Mindstorms NXT kits to create an artificial arm or hand that can lift small objects, such as a coffee cup. In the process, students discover and explore the following concepts and ideas: Hooke's Law, hysteresis, Newton's Second Law, accuracy and precision, rapid prototyping, and the relationship between the voltage applied to a motor and its speed.

Digital Logic for Medicine and Biology Research: A hardware implementation of the Smith-Waterman algorithm for DNA comparison
In this project, students learn that the comparison of DNA sequences is important to a wide variety of applications in medicine and biology, including the analyses of ecosystem biodiversity, cancer mutations and the evolution of viruses. The students learn that specialized yet inexpensive digital hardware based on field programmable gate arrays can help speed the analysis of DNA sequences. They design and test a simple implementation of the Smith-Waterman algorithm that is broadly used for DNA sequence comparisons. In the process, they learn about computational platforms, digital logic, and a divide-and-conquer approach to design.

Electrocardiogram Amplifier Design Using Basic Electronic Parts
This project is broadly centered around the topic of biomedical circuits. Its overall aim is to provide biomedical or electronic engineering students with a hands-on opportunity to develop an electrocardiogram (ECG) amplifier circuit from scratch and thereby learn more about the technical details of bio-potential measurement devices.

Arrhythmia Detection Algorithms for Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators
In this project, students learn how implantable cardioverter defibrillators allow people with certain kinds of cardiac arrhythmias to live normal, active lives. In the laboratory, the students use Matlab to investigate algorithms for quickly and accurately detecting the abnormal heart rhythms that require intervention. Along the way, they learn that signals can be processed in both the time and frequency domains, and how the complexity of an algorithm affects how quickly it runs. They also consider the ethics of an actual case in which a maker of defibrillators discovered a flaw in their device, but delayed publicizing the flaw for three years.

Remote Surgical Robotics: Control Systems and Human-Machine Interfacing
This Real-World Engineering Project focuses on optimizing a prototype remote surgical robot which has force-feedback capabilities. The objective is to detect the surface of a gelatin brain by tactile perception through the robot. Students explore the tradeoff between sensitivity and range while considering human factors as design constrains.

Birth Weight Measurement in Midwifery and Mobile Health Care Delivery
Child birth is one of the most fundamental events in human existence. A key indicator used in the assessment of a baby after a successful birth is the baby's birth weight, as well as the baby's weight in subsequent checkups. Underweight babies have a demonstrated higher rate of mortality and are at high risk of developing a number of serious medical conditions. Identification of risk factors associated with birth weight is, therefore, an important task in post-term child healthcare provision. In this Real World Engineering Project, students are asked to design and construct a mechanical or electromechanical system to measure the weight of a baby immediately after birth and at discrete intervals representing growth over a two month period.
