…a first step, researchers interfaced with the swarm with an app on a tablet. They are now working on controlling the swarm via gestures processed via a motion-tracking bracelet. The new UAV aerodrome is in part supported by funds from Northrup Grumman and Qualcomm—building on a long-standing collaboration. Qualcomm and…

…such as basic computer-to-hardware interfacing, 3-D printing and design, microfluidic devices and state-of-the-art microscope technology. They then apply that knowledge to modify and build instruments in quarter-long projects of their design that allows them to view biological processes that can’t be seen by standard instruments or requires them to overcome…
