EVATEG - Energy Efficient Solid State Light Research, Development Education and Demonstration Center EVATEG is a 1.774.999 TL contract awarded by ISTKA to bring global research groups-governments and industry members together for jointly developing technologies, disseminating information, and rapid adoption of solid state lighting products. EVATEG center is fully equipped with state of the art lighting qualification equipments, advanced thermal measurements systems, micro scale defect detection systems and modeling a wide range of engineering issues thermal, mechanical, and optical. EVATEG center is established at OzU in collaboration with over 9 global universities and more than 20 international companies. (OzU Coordinator: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mehmet Arık, Sponsor: ISTKA) Portable Low Cost Ultrasound Imaging System This is a 466.553 TL grant by TÜBİTAK 1003 program for 2 years and aims the design of a mechanically scanned hand-probe for ultrasound imaging with a significantly reduces channel count (2-4 array elements). The mechanical scanning will be achieved by the hand movement of the operator. While the probe is swung on the body of the patient, the movement of the probe in the 3D space will be monitored by inertial sensors. The major outcome of the project will be a mobile device and the target price for the proposed device is les ́ѡ
