Industry Day

Tuesday | January 23, 2024 | 8:30 - 10:30

Industry day will be a useful platform for networking and knowledge exchange for all the stakeholders in the sensing eco-system – the end-user industry (who use the sensing systems), the technology industry (who engineer and  build the sensing systems) and the academic community (who research and build new sensing systems).

Machine and Material Sensing

Emerging innovations in sensing, AI, IoT and Edge Computing technologies are already transforming industrial operations in Industry 4.0  which is further going to deepen via embracing of AR/VR and robotics technologies  in the context of  Industry 5.0. In this track, industry and Academia discuss novel ideas and practices covering the transformational technologies covering (but not limited to) human-machine interaction, sensor fusion, sensing for real-time operations, digital twins, quality/process control and explore what roles applied sensing technology can play towards achieving the same.

Human Sensing (Clinical and Non-clinical Applications)

Human sensing is of paramount importance in human-centric systems and human-centric design paradigms. These involve sensing of human parameters like mobility, physiology and cognition to understand contextual information such as location, identity, activity, proximity, behaviour, health and wellness. This track aims to deliberate on advancements in human sensing technologies powered by AI, robotics and edge computing  towards enhancement of human experience in both clinical and non-clinical applications.

Remote Sensing (Air-borne and Satellite-borne)

Space-borne and air-borne remote sensing is having growing  impact on climate monitoring, surveillance, agriculture and allied earth observation. The world of remote sensing that was once owned and funded by Governments is getting democratised. Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are opening up new opportunities and with new investments coming in LEO constellations and UAVs. The next generation services and applications in earth observation are likely to be built on top of novel electro-optical, multi-spectral, hyperspectral and  radar sensing deployed on satellites and UAVs. The goal of this track is to discuss new ideas and opportunities arising from technological advancements that are propelling the air-borne and space-borne remote sensing.
