Ori-TENG: 3D Printed Origami Tesselations as Triboelectric Nanogenerators (TENGs) for Energy Harvesting
We introduce Ori-TENG, a design and fabrication pipeline for developing fully 3D printed origami tesselations used as triboelectric nanogenerators for energy harvesting. Ori-TENG devices can be printed as flat origami structures, which are then folded to create 3D goeometries. Unlike other origami TENG tesselations, Ori-TENG structures are fully 3D printed with multiple materials all in one go. Our Ori-TENG editor allows users to program an origami tesselation with several origami units from a pre-defined library, then exports the geometry for 3D printing.

CHROMOCALM
Enhancing working memory with lightweight AR glasses: a new strategy for build up focus and efficiency in learning and work tasks. ChromaCalm dynamically adjusts the areas of the lens that are transparent to help users focus on specific tasks by using colors filter to block distractions, creating “visual zones” of concentration.

SKIN MICROVOLTAGE DISPLAYER
Current Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) systems struggle with accuracy and efficiency, limiting their use. This stems from insufficient understanding of muscle activation in movements and limitations of existing muscle activity detection methods like sEMG, MRI, and ultrasound, which can't visualize muscle activity and show discharge magnitude on the skin. This project introduces a new imaging technology using electrochromic materials on the skin to display muscle activity, aiding precise stimulation in FES for improved accuracy and effectiveness.
