New technology breaks through sign language barriers
Opportunities once distant to the hard-of-hearing community will become a reality with a breakthrough sign language translator. Engineers from Michigan State University developed and patented a technology that – unlike prior translator mechanisms – is non-invasive and as portable as a tube of Chapstick.
Dong Zhao: Saving energy in homes
As an engineer or a “tech geek,” my early research focused on technological improvement to reach energy efficiency. I applied many approaches in construction engineering, building science, geographic information systems and building information modeling. For example, my collaborators and I analyzed national housing data and developed a conceptual framework of resilient built environment.
