This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program provides $150,000 to Baylor University to conduct collaborative research on large-scale wireless RF networks of microchip sensors. The key objectives are to: 1) build a microsensor system and demonstrate low-error rate and efficient asynchronous, encoded wireless transmission in the laboratory using fabricated microchips, and 2) decode signals from a hypothetical brain implant composed of up to 8,000 microsensors to enable prediction of planned arm and hand movement using neuromorphic computing methods. The award period is from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2027. This research aims to advance technologies for autonomous, unobtrusive wireless sensor networks with applications in wearable and implantable biomedical devices, as well as brain-computer interfaces. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
