Electrical engineering researchers develop technology that turns any surface into a wireless charger for many electronic devices, including drones

Kaushik Chowdhury, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering, is developing technology that transforms any surface into a smart wireless charger to power several devices simultaneously. This system can also be used to power more complex gadgets, such as airborne drones.

Northeastern researchers develop secure method for sending sensitive personal data from wearable tech: Send it through the body.

Smart watches. Pacemakers. Internet-connected glasses. These are devices designed to make life easier. And yet, the airwaves that all this wearable technology use to communicate can be hacked, meaning our personal health information is vulnerable. So researchers at Northeastern have a better, more secure idea: Send data through your body.

Researcher honored for advancing wireless communications in military, civilian networks

Associate professor Kaushik Chowdhury received the 2017 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers for his innovative research on intelligent, autonomous radios in wireless communications. The technology could significantly advance communications in military operations, natural disasters, and next-generation consumer networks.
