Wireless robotic teleoperation system for remote physical therapy (2022 @Sussex)

The focus is to disrupt the occupational therapy and assistant solution by introducing a wireless robotic teleoperation system. The proposed robotic system enables remote physical therapy without real physical contacts between the therapist and user (or patient).

IoT application for biodiversity monitoring using acoustic sounds (2019 @Sussex)

What's this? A mobile application that integrates both motion detection sensor and OBD data to help drivers to combat fatigue and negative emotions during driving.
Techniques at-a-glance:
- SQLite database and lightweight ontology computation methods for storing and interpreting the integrated sensor data and mobile devices.
- RESTful web service, Apache ODE, JBoss jBPM and a series of open source packages for running the cloud platform to achieve efficient communication and computation with mobile devices.

Motivation: In a car, the number of “intelligent” sensors, computers and electronic control unit (ECU), is continuously increasing. Increase the number of dedicated wires, cables, shielded cables. Weight, cost and reliability (connectors). Question: Why putting an additional cable between two ECUs for exchanging data since there are already connected to the DC power line.
Our solution: Use the DC PL as a physical support for the transmission. Thanks to the development of X-by-wire technique (replacing mechanical transmission by data transmission).

Motivation: To revolutionize the design of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and enable universal connectivity and management to resource constrained devices, it is advantageous to develop lightweight radio and IPv6 protocol stack for sensor networks and thus bring more value-added services into our smart plans.
What is it? A full IPv6 solution to realize easy access from a smart phone or PC to a sensor device via home gateway. Restful interface for data access: Software development on OpenWRT firmware of gateway to realize HTTP/CoAP proxy for remote RESTful access.

Motivation: Visualize urban mobility combined with different industries: mapping population, transportation, environment, telecommunication, and social data to facilitate interdisciplinary research and communication for city operators and urban planners, leading to collaborative innovation in city development and service improvement.
Scale of data: 18 hours SMS volume, Over 10000 base stations in Beijing.
