Research Activities

The Design of Electronic Integrated Systems Laboratory (DEISLab) (http://193.204.50.76/DEIS/index.html) is a scientific laboratory born in 2003 and actively involved in the design and development of integrated circuits and systems, smart sensors , embedded systems, prototyping on FPGAs and microcontrollers. The DEISLab group has more than 100 publications in international journals and conference proceedings over the past 5 years.
Studies, experimental development and technology transfer mainly concern the following topics:
- Design and development of integrated circuits and systems;
- Smart sensors and detectors;
- Sensor networks;
- Embedded systems;
- Edge-computing;
- Prototyping of electronic boards based on microcontrollers and FPGAs;
- Wearable systems for healthcare;
- Brain-Machine Interface;
- Machine Learning for low resource devices.
The laboratory group has 1 full professor, 1 technical assistant, 1 doctoral student and 4 research assistants. A postdoc from the University of Glasgow, UK also belongs to it for research activities.
DEISLab is or has been involved in numerous projects related to its research interests.
In recent years, some members of the DEISLab have obtained recognition in various and prestigious international conferences and prizes related to research activities.
