Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) systems, which seamlessly merge sensing capabilities with artificial intelligence for IoT devices, have empowered a new generation of smart applications in several important sectors, including transportation and healthcare. According to Markets and Markets, the global AIoT market is projected to grow to $16.2 billion by 2024, boasting a compound annual growth rate of 26.0%...

The gastrointestinal (GI) tract provides noninvasive access to the internal lumen of the body, where numerous health-related information can be obtained. Additionally, some chronic gastroesophageal diseases need long-term in situ monitoring and treatment, which requires devices or implants to remain in the gastrointestinal tract. However, operating bioelectronics locally for a sustained period within the GI tract remains a challenge. A collaborative research team led by Professor Li ZHANG from the Faculty of Engineering, Professor Philip Wai Yan CHIU, and Professor Kai Fung CHAN from the Faculty of Medicine has developed wirelessly powered electronic stents for a new electrical stimulation therapy which could prevent and potentially cure gastric acid reflux.

Multi-material 3D fabrication at nanoscale has long been the holy grail of nanotechnology, and a key enabler for the development of new technologies – including photonic, electronic, and biomedical devices. Professor Chen Shih-Chi and his team from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK)’s Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering, in collaboration with Professor Zhao Yongxin from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU)’s Department of Biological Sciences and Professor Zhao Ni from CUHK’s Department of Electronic Engineering, have developed a new 3D nanofabrication platform that realises multi-material fabrication. For...

A mobile façade inspection robot, which can perform physical hammer tapping to check for potential concrete deterioration, has been developed by Prof. Darwin Lau from the Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering.

Professor Raymond Wai-ho Yeung, Choh-Ming Li Professor of Information Engineering, and Co-Director of the Institute of Network Coding, has been elected a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI) for his consistent and profound contributions to the field of information theory and network coding. Professor Yeung will be inducted at the Fellows Induction Ceremony at NAI’s 12^th annual meeting in June 2023.

Professor Chaoran Huang, Assistant Professor from the Department of Electronic Engineering, has won the Optica (formerly OSA) Foundation 20th Anniversary Challenge for her pioneering research on integrated photonic neuromorphic processor-enabled intelligent, energy-efficient signal processing for next-generation communication systems – one of ten winning projects globally.

Professor Kam Fai Wong from the Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management and his team won the First Prize of “Qian Weichang Chinese Information Processing Science and Technology Award 2022”  of the Chinese Information Processing Society of China...
