Abstract:

I’ll introduce and discuss recent research activities of the Additive Manufacturing Laboratory in Simon Fraser University, Canada. 3D printing can generate custom designs of complex 3D form factors that enable sensors to be integrated into unique places. The design, fabrication, and characterization of 3D printed sensor systems including ion selective electro-chemical sensors, 3D printed circuit boards for portable sensing applications will be discussed. Various sensor platforms including transistor, digital microfluidic, and wireless RF based sensing will be demonstrated for the unique form-factored wearables and sensing robot applications. I hope that the newly established “Sensing Robot” concept is introduced to the bio-medical sensing community through this seminar.

Biography:
Dr. Woo Soo Kim is an Associate Professor of the School of Mechatronic Systems Engineering in Simon Fraser University (SFU). He was selected in 2017 as a Brain Pool Fellow for his sabbatical at Seoul National University in Korea and visited Swiss Federal Laboratories of Materials Science and Testing, Empa in ETH Domain as a visiting professor in 2018. Prior to joining SFU, he was a Senior Research Scientist in Xerox Corporation (XRCC) for two years after the period of a Post-doctoral Research Associate in Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for two and half years. He received BSc degree from Yonsei University in 2001, and MSc and PhD degrees from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). He was the winner of Quadrant Award 2007, international PhD thesis competition. And he received Hanwha Corporation’s New Faculty Award in 2016. His research interest is broad in the field of Advanced 3D printing for energy and sensing applications. Lab webpage: www.sfu.ca/~woosook
