Three-dimensional (3D) fanout package stacking offers new levels of performance, high-density integration, and form factor advantages. Known-good fanout packages are stacked, and the vertical connection is built through Cu pillars in the molding area and solder bumps. Compared to existing TSV-based 3D integrated circuits (3DIC) technology, this solution reduces thermal crosstalk when integrating devices...

Semiconductor quantum dot (QD) structures are considered as promising building block for spintronic applications with the advantage of prolonged spin relaxation time owing to 0D character of confined carriers or excitons. However, feasible application is haunted by severe spin injection loss from its adjacent barrier layers and its mechanism is still not fully understood. Here, we show that exciton...
This paper presents the autonomous control of a fully customized quadrotor MAV in GPS-denied environments based on onboard visual odometry. To achieve the best integration and efficiency, key modules of the MAV hardware system have been investigated and optimized iteratively, inclusive of mechanical frame, propulsion system, flight controller and the visual sensor. An optical-flow module is developed...
In this paper, we present a fully autonomous quadrotor for indoor exploration. The quadrotor is fully customized and capable of localization, mapping, planning and flying in unknown indoor environment with all real-time computations performed onboard. Two laser scanners are equipped to determine the 3D position of the quadrotor. The position measurements are further fused with Inertial Measurement...
In this paper, a system for the wide area surveillance of general urban environments using multiple Mini-VTOL UAVs is developed. Given the information of terrain and buildings in the target area, the problem of (robust) complete coverage of the urban environment is solved by a three-step approximation approach. Firstly, the target area and the observation area are discretized into two sets respectively...
In this paper, we present an monocular vision-based autonomous navigation system for a commercial quadcoptor. The quadcoptor communicates with a ground-based laptop via wireless connection. The video stream of the front camera on the drone and the navigation data measured on-board are sent to the ground station and then processed by a vision-based SLAM system. In order to handle motion blur and frame...
This paper proposes a control strategy to autonomously deploy optimal placements of range-only mobile sensors in 2D and 3D spaces. Based on artificial potential approaches, the control strategy is designed to minimize the intersensor and external potentials. The inter-sensor potential is the objective function for optimal sensor placements. A placement is optimal when the inter-sensor potential is...
