Journal ArticleDOI
Wind dispersal of battery-free wireless devices
TL;DR: To achieve the wide-area dispersal and upright landing that is necessary for solar power harvesting, this work developed dandelion-inspired, thin-film porous structures that achieve a terminal velocity of 0.87 ± 0.02 metres per second and aerodynamic stability with a probability of upright landing of over 95%.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Leveraging Dual-Observable Input for Fine-Grained Thumb Interaction Using Forearm EMG
TL;DR: This work introduces the first forearm-based EMG input system that can recognize fine-grained thumb gestures, including left swipes, right swipes , taps, long presses, and more complex thumb motions and introduces a novel approach for minimally-intrusive collection of labeled training data for always-available input devices.

FM Backscatter: Enabling Connected Cities and Smart Fabrics
TL;DR: In this article, a modulation technique that transforms backscatter, which is a multiplication operation on RF signals, into an addition operation on the audio signals output by FM receivers is proposed.
Patent
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for communicating using mimo and spread spectrum coding in backscatter of ambient signals
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe an ambient RF backscatter transceiver that includes an antenna configured to receive a backscattered ambient radio frequency (RF) signal, and a receiver coupled to the antenna.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
MilliSonic: Pushing the Limits of Acoustic Motion Tracking.
Anran Wang,Shyamnath Gollakota +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a novel system that can achieve sub-millimeter 1D tracking accuracy in the presence of multipath, while using only a single beacon with a small 4-microphone array.
