  • Details
    • Next month (5/15) the Industrial & Systems Engineering Department at NC
      State will host the local IIE and AEE Chapters in a tour of the Department’s
      Ergonomics Lab
      . The tour will include a reception and overview presentation
      of the Ergonomics Program Area as well as student demonstrations of several
      lab-based research projects. Projects to be showcased, include:

      1. Computerizing motor intelligence tests
        – See how graduate students are
        attempting to validate a virtual reality-based version of a simple motor
        intelligence task by using measures of human muscle activity. (Daniels Hall,
        Room 475)
      2. Mind control with brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) – Type letters and
        control a simulated flight just by thinking. How can this technology be used
        to help people with and without severe motor disabilities? “Come control a
        Toy Robot with Your Mind.” (Daniels Hall, Room 457)
      3. Multitasking assessment – See how graduate students are using VR to
        understand how physical exertion influences cognitive task performance with
        information presented for sight and hearing. (Daniels Hall, Room 457)
      4. Wearable sensor design and application – Wireless Body Area Network
        (WBAN) communications are being designed and prototyped for use on, near,
        and around the human body. How can this technology be used to monitor and
        track stroke patients’ upper-limb motion in home-based rehabilitation? “Come
        experience a low-power, miniaturized body sensor.” (Daniels Hall, Room 457)
    • The tour will start at 5:30p with a reception and presentation in Daniels
      Hall, Room 401 on the main NC State campus. The overview will last until 6pm
      and student research project demonstrations will begin at 6:10p in Daniels
      Hall, Rooms 457 and 475.
    • Due to Ergonomics lab space, the tour capacity is limited to 30 persons.
      Please RSVP to Haleh Bryne (hsbyrne@ncsu.edu)
      or Joe Davis (Joe@DrJoeDavisPE.com)
      at your earliest convenience for participation in the tour.
