 RESEARCH PROJECT TITLE: REGAINING TRUST IN ELECTRONIC CHIPS
 <br/>
 <br/>
 FACULTY NAME &amp; TITLE: OZGUR SINANOGLU, ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING
 <br/>
 <br/>
 <strong>
  Research Project Description
  <br/>
  <br/>
 </strong>
 Support for multiple capabilities and mixed technologies has increased the cost of ownership of advanced electronics chip manufacturing foundries. For instance, the cost of owning a chip foundry will be $5 billion in 2015. As a result, many of the chip design companies cannot afford owning and acquiring expensive foundries and hence, outsource their design fabrication to offshore foundries. This globalization of Integrated Circuit (IC) design flow has introduced security vulnerabilities. If a design is fabricated in a foundry that is outside the direct control of the (fabless) design house, reverse engineering, malicious circuit modification, and Intellectual Property (IP) piracy are possible. An attacker, anywhere in this design flow, can reverse engineer the functionality of design, and steal and claim ownership of the IP. An untrusted IC foundry may overbuild ICs and sell the excess parts in the gray market. Rogue elements in the foundry may insert malicious circuits (hardware Trojans) into the design without the designer's knowledge. Because of these and similar hardware-based attacks, the semiconductor industry loses $4 billion annually. This project aims at understanding the aforementioned hardware security and trust issues, surveying the existing solutions, and proposing and implementing new ones.

  Research Project Description

 <br/>
 <br/>
 In UAE, after road accidents, stroke is the second leading cause of disability[1]. Novel technologies are developed to improve the efficacy of rehabilitation. Wearable exoskeleton systems have attracted significant attention in recent years due to their great potentials in improving our understanding of gait abnormalities, reducing labor intensity for therapists, and enabling home-based tele-rehabilitation. This project aims to develop a soft exoskeleton robot to physically assist post-stroke patients with step-to gait on the paralyzed right lower limb. The wearable exoskeleton device must perform 30 degrees of knee flexion and retreat to neutral position of the ankle. The system must be lightweight, affordable, and adaptive. Furthermore, the system will be equipped with force sensors embedded in the shoes of the normal limb to study the ground contact forces in various gait phases and detect when the patient is well-grounded on the normal limb before proceeding with the step-to gait move. This assistance would shorten the paralyzed limb for foot clearance. A preliminary design for the system is shown in Figure 1. The system will be utilized as a test-bed for evaluating the effectiveness of vibrotactile feedback as a guidance method for helping patients with more synchronized movements.

  <li>
   To conduct literature review about technologies for gait rehabilitation

   To develop haptic feedback (vibration) to guide the patient
