Garrett Peterson
Garrett Peterson, currently an instructor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, specializes in circuit design engineering. He instructs senior design projects in electrical circuit lab for undergraduate students. Peterson’s research focuses on practical applications that involve real time and continuous monitoring of environmental signals, with a particular emphasis on applied sensor development for agriculture. His other current projects include a compact radar unit for plant health monitoring, phased-array radar RFIC design, a general-purpose autonomous agriculture robotics platform, and railway health monitoring.
In the BioSenseInnovations Global Center, Peterson provides his expertise on the development of wireless sensor circuit testbed to monitor variety of environmental signals, including the greenhouse gases from agricultural land. He is collaborating with Das team and Natarajan team within the GRIP group to fully develop the technology and its associated sensor data analysis.
