Frontier Technologies Seminar Series #5 by HKUST-BDR Joint Research Institute - on topics in Smart Construction  
 
2:30pm - 4:00pm
Online (Meeting Link will be sent to those who have successfully registered)

HKUST-BDR Joint Research Institute (HBJRI) is going to organize an online Frontier Technologies Seminar on 8 April 2020 (Wed). 2 faculty from HKUST (Bio attached) will give seminars on topics in smart construction to researchers in Bright Dream Robotics (BDR) and HKUST.


Faculty and researchers of HKUST are welcome to attend the seminar and explore potential ways of collaboration on mutually-interested research projects.


Topics that BDR is interested in are as follows:



  • Construction Robotics (typically, integration of control, actuation, and vision)

  • AI & Big data

  • Building Technologies & Intelligent Manufacturing


6 projects have already been selected in the first 2 rounds of call for proposal by HBJRI, and 3 of them are going to be completed in this season. If you would like to know more about the seminar or research collaboration with BDR , contact the institute at hbjri@ust.hk.


Topics of the Seminar



  • "High Density IoT and AI Sensor Network Assisted Energy and Environment Management Platform for Smart Buildings” & “Environmental Sensor Network Integration with Virtual Reality for 3D Space Visualization and Real Time Diagnosis” by Prof. Zhi NING

  • "Smart Environmental Sensor System for Intelligent Construction" by Prof. Zhiyong FAN

Dr. Ning Zhi is an Associate Professor in the Division of Environment & Sustainability, HKUST, Hong Kong SAR. His research interests cover the innovation and development of environmental monitoring technologies with a focus on low-cost sensor algorithm and its application on air quality research. He has active participation in the low-cost sensor-related work initiated by USEPA, WHO, and WMO, and has led his team to develop the air sensing technologies for use in the first marathon route sensor network, large scale urban mobile sensor network with wide recognition locally and globally. Besides the technology development, his research also aims to understand the physical and chemical process of air pollution in the complex urban built environment and their impact on air quality and public health.
