Project Description Western honey bee behavior and communication has been a subject of study for hundreds of years, yet much remains unknown about how they coordinate with each other to succeed as a colony without a central leader. In the Peleg lab, we investigate how they accomplish tasks such as...

Project Description The Vance Lab at the University of Colorado Boulder specializes in indoor and outdoor air quality investigations, with a special focus on aerosols or particulate matter (PM). PM can range from a few nanometers to micrometers in size and can be generated from a variety of sources, from...

Project Description Software Defined Radios are an ever increasing popular topic. The advent of low cost USB radio dongles such as the USRP and BladeRF as well as tools such as GNU radio have allowed for radio development to move into the software domain. GPS is a satellite-based navigation system...

Project Description This project is to explore and exploit the satellite navigation / position engine / GPS within Android. Ideally making end result more more robust with higher integrity. The Android platform provides the majority of GPS/GNSS receivers across the world. Its integration within Android is interesting and many many...

Project Description The Boulder Cryogenic Quantum Testbed (BCQT) is a research facility for developing and openly disseminating standard protocols to reproducibly measure the quality factor and performance characteristics of superconducting microwave resonators used in quantum computing circuits.The BCQT serves as a resource to academic and industry quantum research groups that...

Project Description Team-Based Learning (TBL) flips the classroom, assigns students into teams for small-group learning, and engages student teams to work together to solve problems—thus facilitating problem-based learning pedagogical strategies. TBL can be very effective in improving student outcomes, indirectly teaching important teamwork and collaboration skills, and making class periods...

Project Description The TeachEngineering Video Production team is a small group of students who produce educational videos that demonstrate how to perform hands-on STEM activities (with a focus on engineering) for K-12 teachers. These videos provide step-by-step design solutions to engineering challenges by problem solving and cycling through the design...
