8 Northeastern SMART Membership Benefits Top research with high return of investment: Access to the top researchers in their field Federal research funds and SMART Industry Membership fees support the center Industry Membership 10~20% of total research funds but 100% of the research is made available to Industrial Members, before external disclosure Member fees are unrestricted funds used to cover common center expenses and to support research activities based on inputs from the industrial members Early disclosure of Northeastern SMART inventions to Industrial Members only Non-exclusive royalty-free license to all membership fee-funded inventions offered to all members who agree to share the costs of patenting New business partnerships including formation of grant winning, collaborative teams Access to state of the art labs and core facilities at a reduced cost Workforce development: Provide feedback on Northeastern SMART hiring priorities Direct access to Northeastern SMART exemplary, award winning students

9 Northeastern SMART Research Highlights First-of-its-kind IR sensor capable of detecting IR signatures without using power Challenge: Commercially available sensors use a significant amount of power to detect and identify event of interest even when no useful data is present. Solution: Use the energy from the signal of interest to wake up the sensor!
