PEIR is made possible by generous support from a variety of academic and industry sponsors:
CENS, an NSF-sponsored Science and Technology Center, is a nexus for research and education in the field of distributed sensing. With its partners, the center (1) develops sensor network theory and technology, (2) uses sensing systems in environmental applications, (3) trains undergraduate and graduate students in networked sensing through courses, internships, and hands-on research, and (4) assists members of underrepresented groups in their pursuit of graduate education in this field.Center for Embedded Networked Sensing
Nokia Research Center (NRC), founded in 1986, is Nokia’s corporate research unit of about 700 employees. NRC looks beyond Nokia’s existing business and product development to challenge current strategies and to stimulate renewal in the company’s direction. Working closely with all Nokia business units, NRC’s research explores new frontiers in digital services, physical-digital connections, human interaction, data and content technologies, device architecture, and access and connectivity. NRC promotes open innovation by working on research projects in collaboration with universities and research institutes around the world.
