Projects

Here you can find a list of Infotronics projects carried out at the HES-SO Valais Wallis

HDL

CubeSatCom

The CubeSatCom project develops the digital baseband electronics for satellite communication. It consists of 2 parts:

• channel coding and decoding, in order to overcome transmission errors
• data modulation and demodulation for radio transmission

Dormouse

The Dormouse project consists in connecting multiple switching power supplies to a single master via an optical Ethernet link.

Embedded Systems

DeepSkin

Projects/DeepSkin

BioLum

BioLum is an automatic system to measure marine pollutants using biosensors for the BRAAVOO project. The first tests in a real-live environment have been featured by euronews.

CubeCluster

The CubeCluster project is a collaboration between HE ARC and the ISI Institute.

The board features an FPGA connected to 5 Edison modules for data processing. It is intended to allow high processing power combined to low power consumption.

Envirobot

Envirobot is an ambitious high end project in the nano-tera program. Its major aim is to develop and construct a demonstrator robot platform (the Envirobot) that samples and measures a set of relevant water quality parameters in surface water bodies by the incorporation of optical, physical, chemical and biological sensors. The Envirobot platform will be based on existing segmented anguilliform Amphibots, but with important adaptations in terms of energy use and efficiency, sensory decision programming, and communication possibilities. The Envirobot is invented to perform autonomous surveying or autonavigation. In autonomous surveying the robot will sample and analyze water bodies according to a preset path and defined number of waypoints.
