a fluid suspension electromagnetically driven eye with Video Capability for animatronic applications
International Conference on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques, 2010Co-Authors: Katie Bassett, Marcus Hammond, Lanny SmootAbstract:(Our work of the same title was initially published at "Humanoid '09" in Paris France, and should be referred to for details). We have prototyped a compact, fluid-suspension, electromagnetically-rotated animatronic eye. The Eye has no external moving parts, features low operating power, a range of motion and saccade speeds that can exceed that of the human eye, and an absence of frictional wear points. It supports a rear, stationary, Video camera. In a special application, the eye can be separated into a hermetically sealable portion that might be used as a human eye prosthesis along with an extra-cranially-mounted magnetic drive.

a fluid suspension electromagnetically driven eye with Video Capability for animatronic applications
IEEE-RAS International Conference on Humanoid Robots, 2009Co-Authors: Katie Bassett, Marcus Hammond, Lanny SmootAbstract:We have prototyped a compact, fluid-suspension, electromagnetically-rotated animatronic eye. The eye features extremely low operating power, a range of motion and saccade speeds that can exceed that of the human eye, and an absence of frictional wear points. The design has no external moving parts, easing its installation in new and retrofit animatronic applications. It allows a clear view through the entire structure from front to back, making a rear, stationary Video camera possible. The camera view is supported without a large entrance pupil and is stationary even during rotation of the eye. Two of these devices can support stereo viewing. In a special application, the eye can be separated into a hermetically sealable portion that might be used as a human eye prosthesis, along with an extra-cranially-mounted magnetic drive.

Smart driver for power reduction in next generation bistable electrophoretic display technology
2007 5th IEEE ACM IFIP International Conference on Hardware Software Codesign and System Synthesis (CODES+ISSS), 2007Co-Authors: Michael A. Baker, Aviral Shrivastava, Karam S. ChathaAbstract:Microencapsulated electrophoretic displays (EPDs) are quickly emerging as an important technology for use in battery-powered portable computing devices. Thanks to bistability and their efficient reflective nature, these displays offer power savings on the order of 90% over liquid crystal displays (LCDs) commonly found in today's portable devices. EPD technology is also suitable for use in flexible displays opening the door for integrating much larger displays into small form factors for handheld devices. Here we present a method for power reduction in next generation EPD displays with full color and Video Capability. A "smart driver" for power optimization of next-generation bistable displays is presented which reduces switching power consumption by as much as 50% without affecting quality of service. A more aggressive "lazy driver" capable of achieving significant additional energy savings in exchange for quality of service is also presented. Finally, important challenges engineers face as they work to advance EPD technology for use in future generation hand-held computing devices are explored.
