Summary
Next generation acoustic sensor arrays for super resolution imaging. This project aims to develop a new type of acoustic lens that enhances incoherent sensing. This compressive acoustic sensing approach will achieve super-resolution imaging that is robust to noise. The technology has diverse applications including medical imaging, petroleum prospecting, sonar and acoustic holography and will lead to new technology for Australia.
Real-time signal processing and distributed robotic telescope networking for co-detection of gravitational waves and their optical counterparts. An international collaboration of scientists will employ a global network of telescopes and detectors to search for ripples in space-time. The project will use novel computational tools to study exotic phenomena in the distant Universe.
Physiologically accurate audio processing in cochlear implants. This project proposes to use a physiologically motivated computational model of the cochlea, which along with newly developed cochlear-implant electrode technology will produce the next quantum improvement in speech intelligibility and quality of hearing for implant recipients.
