What's happening at SUTD

ISTD COIL Seminar by Norman Hsu Chen-Wei – A brief, engaging introduction to Linux as the powerful, often unseen operating system behind much of the digital world.

ISTD PhD Oral Defence Seminar by Wang Jiazhao – The increase of the Internet of Things (IoT) has created a complex and heterogeneous wireless ecosystem, demanding IoT gateways that are both flexible and efficient. While Software Defined Radio (SDR) provides the necessary hardware adaptability, its potential is frequently undermined by significant software implementation challenges, including a lack of portability across platforms, prohibitive design complexity for advanced algorithms, and poor computational efficiency. This thesis posits that these persistent bottlenecks can be overcome by a paradigm shift in physical layer (PHY) design: reframing core communication functionalities as learnable, interpretable neural network (NN) models.

ISTD COIL Seminar by DBS Bank – This talk connects foundational knowledge with real-world applications, emphasising the vital role databases play in powering today’s AI-driven technologies.

From a seed-inspired design to a 26-minute flight time on a single rotor, a new monocopter developed by SUTD researchers marks a 10-year journey towards redefining how efficient small flying robots can be.

Singapore’s national swim team will get a new and improved “coach” – powered by artificial intelligence and leveraging drone technology. The system helps coaches
analyse their swimmers’ performance, including stroke duration, swimming velocity,
and the symmetry of the swimmer’s moving body, in real-time.

Using toolpath-optimised deposition-based methods, an SUTD team of researchers has proposed an innovative approach to 3D-print bioinspired structures that could optimise designs in industries such as robotics and wearable technologies.

SUTD researchers designed a novel nonlinear chiral metasurface that could generate circularly polarized light more easily, expanding optics-based applications.

Researchers from Singapore and China have used a superconducting quantum processor to study the phenomenon of quantum transport in unprecedented detail.
