ASU
‘Real-Time DSP Systems’ Online Course
Arizona State University (ASU) will offer a new, online course
in spring 2007 regarding design and implementation of real-time
software for embedded systems. Students will gain hands-on experience
via “online virtual bench capabilities” that enable
off-campus students to remotely access and control ASU real-time
DSP lab equipment.

Leadership University Program Funds Research on New Single-Pixel
Camera
Using new mathematics and a silicon chip covered with hundreds
of thousands of mirrors, each the size of a bacterium, engineers
at Rice University have come up with a very efficient design.
Unlike a one-megapixel camera that captures a million points
of light for every frame, Rice’s camera creates an image
by capturing just one pixel several thousand times in rapid
succession.

University Spotlight
University
of Seville, Spain
TI’s University Program Has Enabled the Seville
School of Engineering to Offer Advanced DSP Classes and Collaborate
with Spain’s Private Sector
Spain’s Seville School of Engineering recently established
a real-time digital signal processing laboratory. The lab is
equipped with TMS320C6711 DSP Starter Kits (DSKs) provided by
the TI DSP University Program and used for undergraduate teaching
in the Telecommunication Engineering School. Students learn
to program the DSK implementing basic digital signal processing
operations like digital filters, FIR or IIR filters. About 300
students per academic year use this lab through a 14-week DSP
theory course. The course teaches DSP theory to practicing engineers
by focusing on modern real-time applications. Students gain
a solid foundation in DSP theory as well as hands-on application
examples, laboratory exercises and problems that use TI’s
latest DSPs.
The
TI support has allowed Prof. Barrero and Prof. Toral, in cooperation
with Prof. Ruiz from the Polytechnic of Madrid, to develop a
Spanish book
that explores TMS320C6000™ DSP applications and offers
practical online tools such as remote lab access and a hypermedia
CD-ROM included within the book.
The
Seville School of Engineering also collaborates extensively
with Spanish companies. This collaboration and additional private
consulting work have helped expand DSP knowledge to the private
sector over the years. As a result, the Seville School of Engineering
has been involved in R&D projects with important Spanish
firms like ACISA,
MADE and MACPUARSA,
companies that have developed such products as novel artificial
vision systems, modern wind generation systems and practical
elevation solutions. |
