Reducing Workplace Injuries Through Motion Sensors

Dr. Jimenez and his team are conducting research to create a Digital Twin for the Operator 4.0 for Industry 4.0 applications.

Simulation Modeling and Analysis of Semiconductor Manufacturing

Efficient and accurate simulations help to design wafer fabrication facilities and their supply chains.

Experts in Simulation Modeling and Data-Intensive Analytics. New focus on Industry 4.0 applications!

We use advanced computer simulation software featuring 3D animation, including AnyLogic, AutoMod and Simio! We also have cutting-edge motion capture technology to develop digital twin models of human operators!

The Center for High Performance Systems (CHiPS) has expertise in simulation modeling and data-intensive analytics targeting the semiconductor manufacturing and other manufacturing industries, as well as distribution centers and supply chains. CHiPS has also incorporated motion capture and simulation technologies and research to model humans/robots performing manufacturing and material handling tasks. This research is critical for designing efficient, ergonomic workstations for Industry 4.0 applications.
