Application Specific
Integrated Circuit
(ASIC) design. It
is used in over 90
types of aircraft,
over 80 models of
passenger cars for
automotive stability
and rollover protection systems, is the foundational
technology for inertial heading and reference for
NASA's Mars rover " Sojourner, " and a multitude of
other applications. Over 55 million GyroChips have
been produced; their use for stability augmentation
in passenger cars has saved millions of lives around
the globe and continues to enhance the safety of
people and transportation systems daily. Along with
my and my team's related developments of MEMS
accelerometers, pressure, position and torque
sensors, and embedded sensors/actuators that
provided unprecedented performance/reliability/cost
advantages over prior art, the GyroChip®
became the
foundation of vehicle dynamic control and helped
realize the dream of autonomous vehicles through
capabilities such as electronic stability control, rollover
prevention, lane change assist, autonomous cruise
control, navigation, drowsy-driver detection, drunk
driver detection, child seat detection, memory seat
sensing, self-maintenance, and other key features.

Empowering Students. Developing Communities.
Giving students a platform to aid
communities around the world.
EPICS envisions a world where Engineering Education is Intimately Connected to Community Impact.
EPICS in IEEE is excited to be hosting a workshop at the 2022 IEEE-HKN Student Leadership Conference for
students interested in submitting service-learning project proposals for consideration of funding up to 10,000 USD.
Participating in an EPICS in IEEE project provides HKN members with a unique hands-on service hours experience
that helps prepare them for their future career.
