The journey of Munio Technologies—is rooted in tragedy, built on innovation, and fortified by perseverance. Here's our timeline of milestones: October 2015: The OSU homecoming deadly crash sparks inspiration in Dr. Thomas, leading to the invention of a mobile vehicle barrier, driven by the need for swift protection at public events. April 2016: Munio Technologies was founded by Dr. Thomas, marking the beginning of a vision to revolutionize safety measures. February 2017: The first prototype was crafted and underwent rigorous testing, laying the foundation for future advancements. October 2018: A breakthrough moment arrives as the second prototype successfully passes Simulated ASTM F2656 Tests, showcasing the barrier's resilience and effectiveness. September 2019: The patent for Munio's innovative barrier technology is approved, validating its uniqueness and reinforcing the company's commitment to cutting-edge solutions. 2021: Munio Technologies takes shape, stepping into the market to offer its groundbreaking Mobile Vehicle Barrier, born from years of dedication and innovation. 2023: A significant milestone—the barrier is listed on the DoD Anti-ram Vehicle Barrier List and validated as a vendor by the Department of Defense (CAGE code 9QG30). This recognition solidifies our position as a trusted provider of robust security solutions. For additional information, visit our website at https://lnkd.in/e9gRZGaj

AT&T was selected to lead the NSF Convergence Accelerator (Track G) Intelligent #5G #Networks Designed and Integrated for Globalized Operations (INDIGO) project that seeks to address the United States Department of Defense and Public Safety goal of providing secure/adaptive/resilient connectivity for #Warfighters and #FirstResponders. The #5G Convergence Accelerator is being supported by #NSF in collaboration with the #DoD, Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (#OUSD (R&E)) and the U.S. Army DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory.   Over the next two years the AT&T Phase 2 team will look to solve for the 5G-Operate-Through problem for #military and civilian by creating a sustainable prototype using #Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI), #ZeroTrust integration, and an #Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) architecture.   The goal is to securely operate through 5G #NextG infrastructures in allied, hostile, and contested areas, and also to develop new infrastructures and partnerships for future secure wireless solutions in pace with emerging standards to fully realize the #digital world that exists beyond the one in which we live today. #INDIGO will set out to provide the timely transfer of information needed to connect every sensor and every actor despite the unique variations in network type, availability, traffic, and data across the lifecycle of a complex #mission. AT&T is committed to delivering modernized #NextG solutions to meet the missions of today and position our nation for success in the future.   Learn More: https://lnkd.in/eGePf6AF   National Science Foundation (NSF), University of California, Riverside, Columbia University, Ericsson, Fujitsu Network Communications, highstreet technologies, Howard University, New York University, Rutgers University, Silicon Harlem

Happy New Year 2024. The year 2023 was an exciting year for me. Let me try to explain why: 1. We realized GaN p-n junction without doping [https://lnkd.in/gH5J_K4C]. 2. We made a GaN HEMT that physically has a gate, but the gate is separated from the semiconductor electronically [https://lnkd.in/gRtczyKE]. 3. I personally took the lead in making GaN Camel diode by establishing Mg-diffusion process in n-type GaN [https://lnkd.in/gnwpAjqm]. I am thankful to my collaborators & awesome students who keeps on throwing tough questions. Now the task is to keep the innovation bar high @2024.

The next post in our Third Plenum series. We now look in more detail at scitech—the Holy Grail of the New Era. First, we unpack the new top-down plans. In our next post, we will ponder the bottom-up arrangements. https://lnkd.in/gr6rQP3x

With new technology comes a slew of new terms and technical concepts. Whether you’re looking to stay ahead of the curve or just getting started, here are some terms commonly used in the world of optical I/O. Term of the week: DARPA — The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. Established in 1958 by the Department of Defense, DARPA focuses on emerging technologies used by the military. The agency collaborates with academic, industry, and government partners to explore new areas of technology and science. https://bit.ly/44bZzqC #semiconductor #optical #photonics #aerospace
