2019-130 - Sub-Harmonic Switching Power Amplifier

Market Opportunity Modern radiofrequency (RF) communication systems have high spectral efficiency modulations, which lead to large peak to average power ratios (PAPRs). To prevent excessive amplification of these peaks and other nonlinearities, power amplifiers (PAs) need to “back off” from operating at maximum linear power, and instead...

2019-187 - Metasurfaces for High-Efficient IR Photodetectors

Market Opportunity Infrared photodetectors are used in a wide variety of applications. Depending on the intensity of light signals and the type of information to be obtained, photo sensitivity and S/N required of infrared detectors differ. To improve the S/N, cooling the infrared detector will be necessary. USC Solution Researchers at USC have developed...

2022-167 - Immersive 3D Displays with Flying Light Specks

Healthcare Entertainment and gaming Education Abstract USC researchers have developed a technique using miniature drones called Flying Light Specks (FLSs) to display 3D illuminations. By coordinating swarms of FLSs with adjustable light sources, synchronized illumination of virtual objects is achieved in a specified 3D space, forming an FLS display....

2022-146 - Balancing Control and Pose Optimization for Wheel-Legged Robots Navigating High Obstacles

Search and rescue missions Exploration and surveillance Military and defense applications Abstract USC researchers propose an innovative method for controlling wheel-legged quadrupedal robots using pose optimization and force-based control through quadratic programming. By leveraging the combined motion of the robot's body and wheel...

2015-232 - Linear-Immersed Sweeping Accumulation for 3D Printing

Additive manufacturing Manufacturing: plastics, telecom, electronics, avionics, etc. Abstract USC researchers have developed a novel additive manufacturing process called linear immersed sweeping accumulation (LISA). LISA utilizes a moving linear accumulation tool immersed in liquid resin to fabricate 3D objects. It offers a balance between...
