Media Mention: Global National Features UBC Ultrasound Breakthrough [video]
Watch a video by Global National to learn more about about Carlos D. Gerardo, Edmond Cretu and MECH professor Robert Rohling’s breakthrough in ultrasound technology: The Innovators: UBC researchers behind new ultrasound advancement
Breakthrough Revolutionizes Ultrasound using Mechanical Engineering, Microfabrication and Novel Printing Process
Photo by Clare Kiernan At first glance, Carlos D. Gerardo, Edmond Cretu and Robert Rohling’s new polymer capacitive micro-machined ultrasound transducer (polyCMUT) looks like a computer chip, but it’s actually a series of microscopic drums built with a novel printing process. This innovation uses mechatronics and micromachining to convert sound into electrical signals at a […]
