[] It is well-recognized that non-thermal (non-equilibrium) plasmas have played a critical, if unsung, role in every day technologies, and really, our modern way of life. The microchips and processors that make up our phones, computers, and the entire information technology ecosystem all utilized plasma processing at some point in the manufacturing chain. While microfabrication technologies such as etching and sputtering are well developed and commercially deployed, the next evolution of plasma processing will expand the types and kinds of goods beyond electronics to include fertilizers, high-value chemicals, metals, and more, helping create a more energy resilient and security robust manufacturing sector. This talk will overview two areas that are primed for great impact based on processing at a plasma-liquid interface. Speaker(s): David, Agenda: Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/499757

The Southeast Michigan Young Professionals Affinity Group is hosting a member speaker series meant to highlight the projects, research, or interests of our members! Our fourth session will be presented by member Venugopal Thirakanam in September on the topic of the Evolution of AI and Its Embedded Role in ADAS. Artificial Intelligence has rapidly evolved from a research concept into a driving force behind modern mobility. This session will trace AI’s journey—from its early rule-based beginnings to today’s embedded AI systems that power real-time decision-making in vehicles. We will examine how advancements in processing architectures, from microcontrollers to high-performance SoCs, have enabled increasingly complex AI models to operate efficiently within the constraints of automotive systems. Through real-world ADAS examples—such as lane-keeping assistance, driver monitoring systems, and pedestrian detection—we will demonstrate how embedded AI enhances safety, comfort, and user experience. The session will conclude with a forward look at how emerging AI trends will shape the next generation of autonomous and intelligent mobility solutions. We hope you can join us!
