State-of-the-art in Wearable Systems and components
Economical conditions
Evaluation of research institutions, groups, projects and proposals.
LernzielTo integrate wearable computers also commercially successful in our daily outfit, innovative sensing and communication technologies as well as economical and ethical aspects have to be considered.

The course deals with
> Textile Sensors: strain, pressure, temperature, ECK, EMG, ...
> Packaging: new substrates (eTextiles), organic material (foils)
> State-of-the-art and research in Wearable components and systems.
> Privacy and Ethics

Using a business plan we will practice the commercialisation of our 'Wearable Computers'.

Supported by a wiki-tool the course is organized as a seminar, in which the addressed topics are jointly discussed considering the aspect 'Concept of a research proposal'. According to the ETH 'critical thinking initiative' we will analyse and reflect implementation concepts incorporating the social and scientific context. Presentations alternate with workshops and discussions. Instead of an oral examination a thesis in a form of a project proposal can be submitted.

227-0966-00LQuantitative Big Imaging: From Images to StatisticsW4 KP2V + 1UK. S. Mader, M. Stampanoni
KurzbeschreibungThe lecture focuses on the challenging task of extracting robust, quantitative metrics from imaging data and is intended to bridge the gap between pure signal processing and the experimental science of imaging. The course will focus on techniques, scalability, and science-driven analysis.
Lernziel1. Introduction of applied image processing for research science covering basic image processing, quantitative methods, and statistics.
2. Understanding of imaging as a means to accomplish a scientific goal.
3. Ability to apply quantitative methods to complex 3D data to determine the validity of a hypothesis
InhaltImaging is a well established field and is rapidly growing as technological improvements push the limits of resolution in space, time, material and functional sensitivity. These improvements have meant bigger, more diverse datasets being acquired at an ever increasing rate. With methods varying from focused ion beams to X-rays to magnetic resonance, the sources for these images are exceptionally heterogeneous; however, the tools and techniques for processing these images and transforming them into quantitative, biologically or materially meaningful information are similar.
The course consists of equal parts theory and practical analysis of first synthetic and then real imaging datasets. Basic aspects of image processing are covered such as filtering, thresholding, and morphology. From these concepts a series of tools will be developed for analyzing arbitrary images in a very generic manner. Specifically a series of methods will be covered, e.g. characterizing shape, thickness, tortuosity, alignment, and spatial distribution of material features like pores. From these metrics the statistics aspect of the course will be developed where reproducibility, robustness, and sensitivity will be investigated in order to accurately determine the precision and accuracy of these quantitative measurements. A major emphasis of the course will be scalability and the tools of the 'Big Data' trend will be discussed and how cluster, cloud, and new high-performance large dataset techniques can be applied to analyze imaging datasets. In addition, given the importance of multi-scale systems, a data-management and analysis approach based on modern databases will be presented for storing complex hierarchical information in a flexible manner. Finally as a concluding project the students will apply the learned methods on real experimental data from the latest 3D experiments taken from either their own work / research or partnered with an experimental imaging group.
The course provides the necessary background to perform the quantitative evaluation of complicated 3D imaging data in a minimally subjective or arbitrary manner to answer questions coming from the fields of physics, biology, medicine, material science, and paleontology.

KurzbeschreibungIntroduction to experimental systems for quantum information processing (QIP). Quantum bits. Coherent Control. Measurement. Decoherence. Microscopic and macroscopic quantum systems. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Photons. Ions and neutral atoms in electromagnetic traps. Charges and spins in quantum dots and NV centers. Charges and flux quanta in superconducting circuits. Novel hybrid systems.
LernzielThroughout the past 20 years the realm of quantum physics has entered the domain of information technology in more and more prominent ways. Enormous progress in the physical sciences and in engineering and technology has allowed us to build novel types of information processors based on the concepts of quantum physics. In these processors information is stored in the quantum state of physical systems forming quantum bits (qubits). The interaction between qubits is controlled and the resulting states are read out on the level of single quanta in order to process information. Realizing such challenging tasks is believed to allow constructing an information processor much more powerful than a classical computer. This task is taken on by academic labs, startups and major industry. The aim of this class is to give a thorough introduction to physical implementations pursued in current research for realizing quantum information processors. The field of quantum information science is one of the fastest growing and most active domains of research in modern physics.

KurzbeschreibungDie Vorlesung Chemieingenieurwissenschaften vermittelt die Grundlagen zur Produktions- und Prozessplanung. Neben Reaktorenwahl, Reaktionsführung und Skalierung werden aktuelle Probleme grosstechnischer Prozesse und neue Syntheseverfahren behandelt. Heterogene Katalyse und Transport von Impuls, Masse und Energie verbindet den erarbeiteten Stoff mit der chemisch/biologischen Grundausbildung.
LernzielDie Vorlesung Chemie und Bio-Ingenieurwissenschaften im 4. Semester vermittelt Chemikern, Chemieingenieuren, Biochemikern und Biologen die Grundlagen zur Produktions- und Prozessplanung. Zuerst werden verschiedene Reaktoren, einzelne Prozess- und Verfahrensschritte sowie grosstechnische Aspekte von Chemikalien und Reagenzien eingeführt und anhand von aktuellen Produktionsbeispielen zusammengefügt. Betrachtungen im Bezug auf Materialverbrauch, Energiekosten und Nebenproduktbildung zeigen, wo modernes Engineering einen grossen Beitrag zur umweltfreundlichen Produktion leisten kann. In einem zweiten Teil werden chemische und biologische Vorgänge in Reaktoren, Zellen oder Lebewesen aus einer neuen Sichtweise behandelt. Transport von Impuls, Masse und Energie werden zusammen eingeführt und bilden eine Basis zum Verständnis von Strömungen, Diffusionsvorgängen und Wärmetransport. Mittels dimensionsloser Kennzahlen werden diese Transportvorgänge in die Planung der Produktion eingeführt und ein Ueberblick in die Grundoperationen der chemischen und biochemischen Industrie gegeben. Eine Einführung in heterogene Katalyse verbindet den erarbeiteten Stoff mit der chemisch/biologischen Basis und illustriert wie durch enges Zusammenspiel von Transport und Chemie/Biologie neue, sehr leistungsfähige Prozesse entwickelt werden können.
