iLab'15 Internship @ Si-Ware Systems

About the Company:
Si-Ware Systems (SWS) is an independent fabless semiconductor company providing a wide spectrum of product design and development solutions, custom ASIC development and supply, as well as standard products. SWS has three divisions: ASIC Solutions – interface ASICs; Timing Products – all silicon oscillators; and Optical MEMS Technology – MOEMS products. The ASIC Solutions division provides custom ASIC development and supply focusing in four main areas: sensor interfaces and MEMS, wireless, timing, and optical. The Timing Products division has developed a breakthrough technology in its all silicon Self Compensating Oscillator (SCO™). The Optical MEMS technology division has developed the worlds’ first single-chip FT-IR spectrometer under the brand name NeoSpectra™, using its unique platform – Silicon integrated Micro Optical Systems Technology (SiMOST™), that allows the creation of multiple optical components on silicon.
What you will be working on?
The overall objective of the project is to capitalize on the innovative MEMS spectrometer developed in cooperation between Ain Shams team and Si-Ware company team to build a new breakthrough product to be used for the optical gas sensing. Such product is foreseen to have a very promising business case and build a success story that inspires others and helps implementing this technology as a source of sustainable development in Egypt.

In this project, interns will work to realize an industrial breakthrough gas sensing module that is ready for volume manufacturing using innovative and patented optical MEMS technology. Such gas sensor module will be developed in a very compact form and integrated in a mote  to be connected with others forming a wireless sensor network for continuous air pollution monitoring
