Study of Human Safety-centric Strategies for Human-Robot Coexistence
With the increasing integration of robots into various domains and their coexistence with humans, ensuring human safety has become a critical concern. This thesis highlights the challenges associated with human safety in ... -
Summer-Less Dual Charge Pump Based PLL With Wide Lock Range Using Analog Frequency Detector
(2011-01-18)Phase Locked Loop (PLL) is an integral component of clock generation circuits. A third order Charge Pump PLL (CPPLL) is most widely employed PLL architecture due to its zero steady state phase error. A monolithic implementation ... -
Techniques For Low Power Motion Estimation In Video Encoders
(2013-02-12)This thesis looks at hardware algorithms that help reduce dynamic power dissipation in video encoder applications. Computational complexity of motion estimation and the data traffic between external memory and the video ... -
Time-based All-Digital Technique for Analog Built-in Self Test
(2017-11-30)A scheme for Built-in-Self-Test (BIST) of analog signals with minimal area overhead, for measuring on-chip voltages in an all-digital manner is presented in this thesis. With technology scaling, the inverter switching times ... -
Towards Development Of Low Cost Electrochemical Biosensor For Detecting Percentage Glycated Hemoglobin
(2014-07-11)There is an ever growing demand for low cost biosensors in medical diagnostics. A well known commercially successful example is glucose biosensors which are used to diagonize and monitor diabetes. These biosensors use ... -
Vision-driven Tele-Operation for Robot Manipulation
It’s worth the time to acknowledge just how amazingly well we humans can perform tasks with our hands. Starting from picking up a coin to buttoning up our shirts. All these tasks for robots are still at the very forefront ... -
A Workload Based Lookup Table For Minimal Power Operation Under Supply And Body Bias Control
(2011-01-25)Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) and Adaptive body bias (ABB) techniques respectively try to reduce the dynamic and static power components of an integrated circuit. Ideally, the two techniques can be combined to find the ...
