Título
Ultra Low Power IC's for Sound Localization in Sensor Networks

Resumo
This talk will present latest research in the design of nanowatt integrated circuits for the localization of sound sources. All approaches are variations of a recently introduced cross correlation derivative approach for the estimation of the interaural time delay (ITD) of two signals. In particular, the targetted applications are vehicle and gunshot detection and localization. Several tested IC will be described.

Bio

Pedro M. Julian received the "Ingeniero Electronico" degree in 1994 and the Ph.D. degree in "Control de Sistemas" in 1999, both from Universidad Nacional del Sur (UNS), Bahia Blanca, Argentina. He was visiting scholar at the University of California at Berkeley from 2000 to 2002 and at Johns Hopkins University from 2002 to 2003. He holds positions as an Associate Professor in the Departamento de Ingeniera Electrica y Computadoras (DIEC) at UNS and as an Adjoint Researcher in the National Research Council of Argentina (CONICET). His research interests cover theory and applications of computational circuits and systems, parallel implementation of Cellular Neural Networks and Cellular Automata, and acoustic and visual processors, with emphasis on the design and analysis of VLSI systems and low power systems. He served as the Region 9 (Latin America) Vice President in the Board of Governors of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society from 2004 till 2007. He is a founding member of the Latin American Consortium for Integrated Services (LACIS) and the Argentine School of Microelectronics (EAMTA
