Sensing Data
Acquire reliable field data from images, ToF sensors, thermal imaging, and sensing signals.
LAB IDENTITY
iCPS Lab connects AIoT, edge AI, smart healthcare, and smart manufacturing research with real-world systems and interdisciplinary collaboration.
The core value of iCPS Lab is to integrate artificial intelligence, sensing data, and physical environments into systems that can be deployed, verified, and continuously improved. Our research starts from problem definition and returns to real application settings such as healthcare, manufacturing, and smart cities.
Acquire reliable field data from images, ToF sensors, thermal imaging, and sensing signals.
Turn data into explainable decision support through model design, training, and validation.
Combine edge computing and human-machine interfaces to bring technology into clinics, production lines, and real environments.
Research Philosophy
Wan-Jung Chang, Ph.D.
“The value of engineering education lies in exploring the unknown and returning technology to society. We expect our team not only to master advanced technologies, but also to deliver practical solutions for clinical and industrial needs.”
Professor Chang has long focused on AIoT and edge computing, building a highly interdisciplinary research environment in the Department of Electronic Engineering at NKUST. The lab connects hospitals and technology industries externally, while guiding students to transform ideas into verifiable system outcomes internally.
For Partners
We have experience in industry-academia collaboration and clinical field validation. The lab supports enterprises and hospitals with customized technical assessment, AI system development, and proof-of-concept validation.
For Students
PhD students, master’s students, and undergraduate project students are welcome to join. You will not only study theory, but also participate in data processing, model training, system integration, paper publication, and competition practice.
The collaboration scope spans technology companies, clinical sites, research institutions, and government-related units across iCPS Lab projects and field validation work.
Industry
Records related to smart manufacturing, AIoT, AR/XR, image recognition, system integration, and technical services.
Clinical
Clinical collaboration contexts involving decision support, smart care, medical training, and system validation.
Institutions
Research institutes, industry centers, academic societies, and government-related units appearing in project records.
With AIoT as the technical foundation, the lab connects healthcare AI, smart manufacturing, and smart transportation so that models become deployable application systems rather than accuracy numbers alone.
Healthcare AI
Integrating thermal imaging, ToF sensors, and AI skeleton recognition for psychiatric self-harm warning, patient behavior recognition, automated ear lesion diagnosis, tongue rehabilitation, and XR training for surgical instrument education.
Smart Manufacturing
Using Edge AI to develop low-latency, high-accuracy automated defect detection systems for production-line issues such as capacitor missing solder and product packaging defects.
Smart City
Deploying reliable IoT sensing networks to support bidirectional interaction between network communication and the physical world, with applications in traffic monitoring, environmental sensing, and sustainable cities.
