Hinged Tetro & Scorpio Robots
Inspired by a species of huntsman spider, this robot can transform, roll and somersault.
Controlling Networks by Design
Network models are often used to represent large-scale systems across a diverse range of applications, including finance, neuroscience, biochemistry and social dynamics.
Indoor Relative Positioning System
Highly relevant in Singapore’s densely populated urban setting, the Indoor Relative Positioning System localizes the positions of mobile users in an indoor environment.
Scene-based Localisation
The project aims to determine the location of the camera when the query image is taken without GPS assistance.
Measuring Light Through Trees for Daylight Simulations
This research project proposes a novel approach that that incorporates simulated human crowd flow patterns into the design of middle-scale built environment layouts (e.g., shopping mall, campus, station terminal, theme park).
Utilising Both Conversion & Alloying reactions for High Lithium Storage Capacities
High-energy and power-dense lithium-ion batteries are necessary to propel the development of portable electronics.
Crowd-driven Mid-scale Layout Design
This research project proposes a novel approach that that incorporates simulated human crowd flow patterns into the design of middle-scale built environment layouts (e.g., shopping mall, campus, station terminal, theme park).
SmartGrid
SmartGrid is a new technology that understands the preferences of its user, bringing about energy and cost savings in accordance with the user’s comfort level of choice.
4D Printing
Expanding the potential of its 3D counterpart, 4D Printing transcends into the 4th dimension – time. By allowing the printing of 3D objects that can change in shape and configuration over time, 4D Printing is set to transform aerospace structures, toys and other products we use in our everyday lives.
Water Desalination
This low-energy and cost-effective process uses carbon nanomaterials as the electrode in capacitive deionisation to remove salt from water.
