01 / Research
Four decades of instrumentation, one throughline
From patch-antenna moisture sensors to microwave-absorbing nanomaterials and prosthetic mechanisms — applied electronics built to leave the lab.
Agrionics & Sensor Instrumentation
Sensor and electronics design for pre- and post-harvest technologies — moisture, disease, and crop-growth measurement systems built for field conditions.
Microwave-Absorbing Nanomaterials
Ferrite and nanocomposite materials engineered for X-band microwave absorption, developed with PhD scholars across multiple funded studies.
Prosthetics & Biomechanics
Mechanism design for low-cost prosthetic hands and human gait dynamics, bridging electronics with rehabilitation robotics.
Electrostatic Systems
Electrostatic spraying, disinfection, and dust-mitigation technologies taken from lab prototype through to licensed, commercialized products.
