Geometry Projection Based 3D Object Detection

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have been deployed in many real-world applications such as payload delivery, agricultural laboring, and aerial photography. Based on GPS-based localization algorithms, these drones have achieved many advancements in industry automation. However, since common GPS receivers do not work indoors, an accurate computer vision (CV) technique is required to resolve the problem […]

Automated carbohydrate counting and machine learning could improve glycemic control in youth living with type 1 diabetes

People with type 1 diabetes (T1D) treated with a basal bolus insulin regimen need to match their insulin bolus calculation with the estimated carbohydrate content of food to maintain glucose control. We want to provide them with a more flexible approach and give them the opportunity to quickly adapt mealtime insulin using automated carbohydrate counting […]

Operational framework and application prototype for integrating DfMA and BIM

Built environments have been experiencing low productivity issues for a long time due to poor collaborative processes, inefficient information exchange, and discontinuity between design and construction. With more and more construction projects moving towards off-site construction, the concept of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) is gaining momentum. This strategy is expected to be adopted […]

Investigate the effectiveness of various designs of inspection ports for CMLs (Corrosion monitoring locations) on thermally insulated pipes/ equipment

Thermally insulated systems (pipeline, process piping and process equipment) in the hydrocarbon industry require frequent assessment using various non-destructive examination. To access the surface underneath thermal insulations, inspection ports are widely used which have advantages of facilitating the high confidence data. The downside of inspection ports is when these allow moisture seepage which causes corrosion […]

Autonomous Soaring and Thermal Mapping with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

The research proposed here aims to develop methods to increase the flight time of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) using atmospheric energy in the form of rising air thermals, as is often done by glider pilots. This would allow UAVs to rely less on their onboard motor and reduce the amount of energy consumed during flight. […]
