Researchers who contributed to RIT receiving nearly $103 million in sponsored research awards during the past fiscal year, including 10 faculty members who reached or surpassed $1 million this past fiscal year, were inducted into the yearly classes of PI Millionaires.

Scienmag talks to Qian Xue and Xudong Zheng, associate professors, and Weili Jiang, postdoctoral research associate, all in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, about their research.

The Debrief features Xudong Zheng, associate professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, about how his team's research on an innovative sensor array could be used by the Navy during stealth operations at sea.

Researchers at RIT are creating a novel sensor system based on the superior design and detection range found on harbor seal whiskers.

Qian Xue, associate professor of mechanical engineering in RIT's Kate Gleason College of Engineering and recent NSF CAREER Awardee, is exploring how the varied sizes, shapes, and directions of whiskers on harbor seals can correlate to better sensor technologies.
