#3: CEWIT

In March 2009, Stony Brook opened a new facility to house our Center of Excellence in Wireless and Information Technology (CEWIT).  Founded in 2002, CEWIT’s research is diverse, covering:

distributed robotics, expressive and hybrid networks, mobile computing, wireless networks, cyber security, computer vision and image processing, RF systems, microwave sensors, wireless sensor networks, computational genetics and protein docking, computational neurobiology, virtual reality, effective bandwidth utilization, wireless protocols, wireless ad hoc networks and wireless gateways. Our research topics range from materials to components to systems and address devices and communications, networking, software systems, and solutions/applications for vertical markets.

I’ll be the first to admit that for me — a student activities guy turned radio guy turned counselor —  most of the scientific stuff we do goes way over my head… but that certainly doesn’t mean I can’t be impressed by it!  I missed the Open House they had last summer; hopefully they’ll have another one soon (hint hint).
