Location (class and lab) – UNC 437 MacNider/ State 2024 EBII

Time – 2-3 pm T-Th (will be adjusted for NCSU)    

Website – http://www.bme.unc.edu/academics/BMME765/

Goals – Students will be presented a wide range of instrument design skills.

These include initial concept design, programming microcomputers, programming higher level languages, interfacing transducers and output devices, Internet tools, project management, testing and measurement, data collection and biomedical research.  Aspect of starting a business will also be presented (marketing, legal).

    

Students are expected to design several medical instruments in this class. Initially students will be given a design projects that will demonstrate their design skills. Specifically they will involve physiological sensors and signal processing hardware and software.  In the latter half of the semester the students will work on individual or group projects.
