I joined Professor Mike Fraser’s acoustic printing group as a research associate. My role was initally to look into commercialisation routes for an acoustic printing device which was being developed for bioprinting and particle sorting applications.
To support it’s development I contributed an electronics system to precisly control the acoustic transducers of the patteninng devices.
I also devised a set of experiments to investigate the safety of ultrasonic devices with regard to hearing. This involved building a robotic positioning rig to precisely place a microphone to measure the sound field surrounding the acoustic array.
