A Lab Where Students Develop Their Own Research Themes
Rather than assigning topics unilaterally, we work with students to frame questions, learn the necessary technologies, and turn their ideas into working results. Alongside commissioned and joint research with industry, we welcome students interested in pursuing original themes.
- Students take the lead, with faculty providing guidance and support
- Cross-disciplinary learning in wireless networks, recognition technologies, simulation, EEG, and more
- Faculty profile and external research presentations
