Listed below are some of the biomedical instrumentation projects that I have
lead or directed. Most of the projects were carried out at the
University
of Campinas with the participation of undergraduate and graduate students of
electronic engineering before 1990 with the aim of transferring the technology
to native industries. The contribution of these young talents is
gratefully acknowledged here.
NOTE: Not listed below are consulting projects that were carried
out for specific manufacturers due to confidentiality limitations.
- Transcutaneous electro-neural stimulator (TENS) for pain suppression
(transferred to CINEL Ltda.)
- Amplifier with variable filters for bio-electric signals
- Thermister-based digital thermometer for physiological preparations
- Isolated preamplifier for clinical recordings of bio-electric signals
- Electrical stimulator for eliciting somato-sensory evoked potentials
- Acoustic stimulator for eliciting auditory evoked potentials
- Optical patterns stimulator for eliciting visual evoked potentials
- Microprocessor-based evoked potential processing system
- Electronic tonometer for the measurement of intra-ocular pressure in
patients
- Ultrasonic lithotriptor for fragmenting renal calculi
- Modular system for the teaching of transducers and measurement of
biomedical parameters
- Transcutaneous electromagnetic stimulator for accelerating bone
consolidation (transferred to BRASMED and subsequently to GM Reis)
- Radiometer (instantaneous and continuous monitoring) for neonates
receiving phototherapy (transferred to FANEM)
