Applicant's Roles
Students will research and develop various advanced video analytics and IoT (Wi-Fi, LoRa and ibeacon) technologies, their algorithms and protocols, to support user/asset tracking, people sensing, crowd counting, etc. This includes IoT design, sensing, camera innovations, edge AI, and data/video analytics for large-scale deployment. They will help on research, prototyping, simulation, and experimental trials. Students in the project will actively involved in industrial deployment based on our research results to enable new retail, promote smart city and create new market opportunities. Documentations in the form of patent, papers, and presentations will also be involved.
Applicant's Learning Objectives
Ability to understand how IoT works and are designed, what smart camera and edge AI are, how video and IoT play a role to sense users, asset tracking, data mining and user analytics, etc. Ability to conduct video analytics, network programming, machine learning and protocol design.
