Antenna Design Concept, printed on PET film using a screen printing process.
COMSOL Non-linear Bioheat Model for a PET lens. Uses mathematical model described here: http://biomechanical.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/article.aspx?articleid=1397803
Bioheat model for a PDMS based lens. Mathematical model can be found here: http://biomechanical.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/article.aspx?articleid=1397803
Approximate scale of final printed antenna design - PET film.
CNC Aluminum Mold, Male, used for bending PET into a lens shape. The PET is heated to high temperatures in an oven while attached to the mold. Removal of the PET is delicate to prevent wrinkles on the lens surface that can damage the form and function of the antenna.
Pouring PDMS onto the mold, which acts as a bio-compatible coat for the contact lens prototype.

Clear Active Contact Lens - Cal Poly Senior Project

For my senior project at Cal Poly, I was a member of a tight knit team of engineers developing an Active Contact Lens capable of wireless power transfer and RF communication. Some of my responsibilities were as follows:

- Assisting in the design and prototyping of a functional embedded platform for contact lenses.
- Performing verification and validation studies on the constructed prototype
- Designing a COMSOL model for bioheat transfer in the human eye
- Investigating existing active contact lens solutions for areas of improvement and adaptation
- Facilitating collaboration between a team of biomedical and electrical engineers
