CAD and CAM systems
have been widely used in industry all over the world. The emerging micro and
nano CAD/CAM systems are still in the incipient stages of scientific research
and development. However, the developing speed of these systems are quite high,
especially in micro and nano engineering field.
There are two basic
important issues featuring the micro and nano CAD/CAM systems. The one is that
new concepts and new principles are adopted in these systems. The other is the
interdisciplinary fusion. So the clever and well trained scientists and
researchers are facing great chances and challenges.
In this research, a
femto second laser based micro and nano CAD/CAM system is introduced. The two
photon exciting non-linear effect, Ti-sapphire fs laser, the confocal
microscope, 3D scanner and the design/manufacturing software are presented. The
main advantages of this system are discussed. Some functional micro devices such
as micro gears, 3D photonic crystals, micro lens array are demonstrated by our
micro CAD/CAM platform. Several important aspects such as the fabricating
resolution, scanning parameters and the performance of the devices are evaluated
theoretically and experimentally.

From Sensorimotor Skills to Cognitive Technical Systems - an Incremental
Learning Approach

Technical Aspects of Multimodal Systems (TAMS)
Department of
Informatics, University of Hamburg, Germany
Abstract:
Recently, new applications of intelligent systems like service robots and
cognitive automobiles have been emerging. The success of these new applications
will mainly lie in their ability to incrementally learn through interaction with
their environment and with humans. Advances have been made both in interacting
with the environment through the development of elementary sensorimotor skills
as well as in human-machine interaction via improved social skills. In this
talk, I will first give an overview of the hierarchy of robot skills and the
important human-machine interaction modalities. Then I will introduce the
incremental-learning approaches to developing self-valued, multisensor-based
robot skills. Interactive-assembly experiments in which a robot is instructed
using natural language, gesture and gaze information will also be discussed.
Finally, I will summarize the future research topics such as context-awareness,
ambient sensing, autonomous credit-assignment, cognitive architecture and
cross-modal integration.
Functionality integration in analytical microfluidic devices
Nanotechnology has been much promoted during the last few years. While the
universal goal of this development, like any others, is the capability
enrichment of human beings, nanotechnology is the pathway to understand and
explore material and living systems at molecular levels. This could be only
possible by matching both top down (miniaturisation) and bottom up (auto-organisation)
approaches which is highly interdisciplinary. One of the challenges is to
develop new methods and new instruments for chemical and biological processing
at micro and nano-scales. Microfluidic devices are such emerging systems which
can be manufactured at low cost and high throughput, with the manner of the
production of microelectronic circuits.
During the
past few years, many efforts have been devoted to the demonstration of
microfluidic device capabilities of doing the same works as can be done using
desktop equipments. It is known that new phenomena and un-known physicochemical
properties can be observed if the dimension of the integrated features is
reduced to a nano-meter scale. From this point of view, it is more interesting
to explore new potentialities offered by micro and nanostructures patterning
techniques. In all cases, microfluidic principles have to be applied as soon as
possible to the advanced research topics in biochemistry, in biology and in
biomedical research areas. By doing so, we enjoy a number of interdisciplinary
studies that also have great industrial interests.
In this talk, we will review our approaches based on low cost and high
throughput nanofabrication technologies. We will show how microfluidic chips can
be used to create new functionalities for single cell and single molecule
analyses and how fundamental physics knowledge can be applied to biochemical and
biological processing. Our long term research strategy will be also discussed
concerning bio-nano-info-cognitive (BNIC) convergence recently developed in both
ENS and LPN laboratories.
