High-fidelity Stereo Imaging Depth Estimation for Metaverse Devices

Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The 9th Engineering Inno Show /

This project is about high-fidelity stereo RGBD imaging for Metaverse devices.
This work proposes to design and realize a fast and accurate 3D imaging architecture that Metaverse VR headsets can leverage. Different from the previous imaging framework, we use the prior of optical encoding, and joint optimization structure in deep optics to explore a new and improved framework for high-resolution RGBD imaging. A state-of-the-art stereo-matching algorithm is explored with jointly optimized lenses and an image recovery network. Coventional imaging algorithms consider only the post processing of captured images, which is less fleasible and with high computational complexity. Our deep stereo depth estimation integrates the optical preprossessing and encoding into the advanced decoding neural networks to achieve a higher accuracy of RGBD imaging with higher resolution. It fully utilizes the information obtained from the stereo camera with a pair of asymmetric lens in a Metaverse device to achieve a more extended depth range of all-in-focus imaging.

Towards Real-time 3D Neural Holography for Near-eye Display

Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The 9th Engineering Inno Show /

Holography plays a vital role in the advancement of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) display technologies. Its ability to create realistic three-dimensional (3D) imagery is crucial for providing immersive experiences to users. However, existing computer-generated holography (CGH) algorithms used in these technologies are either slow or not 3D-compatible. In this project, we explore four inverse neural network architectures to overcome these issues for real time and 3D applications

Trash Collection Patrol Bot

Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The 9th Engineering Inno Show /

Our project is an automatic rubbish disposal car. which is divided into 4 parts.The whole system is operated under the link between a computer and the vehicle, through this link, the computer can sketch the environment and calculate both position and posture of the vehicle, giving the car instructions on movements. The radar module is for outlining​ the surrounding environment. The AI recognition module allows the car to label the spitball that the camera captured, this allows it to find the spitball we wish to throw away. The Robotic Arm module is responsible for grabbing the object and throwing it into the Smart Bin. The Smart Bin should be able to open up automatically when the arm grabs the target as well as when someone’s hand is close to the bin.

NeuroHarbor

Computer Science, The 9th Engineering Inno Show /

Epilepsy, affecting over 70 million individuals worldwide, can cause significant physical injuries and psychosocial isolation. Epileptic seizures often incapacitate patients’ movement, making everyday activities potentially perilous, even fatal. The accurate and rapid detection of seizure onsets is vital for improving patients’ quality of life. Furthermore, traditional EEG diagnosis requires patients to remain bedridden, tethered by a wired headset until a seizure occurs. This process is disruptive, calling for a compact, wearable, and clinical-grade EEG headset that empowers mobility and real-time seizure monitoring.
We are poised to deliver this solution with an AI-powered wearable EEG headset. This innovative device, equipped with a proprietary AI model, facilitates real-time computing and rapid seizure detection. It ensures minimal latency, lower power consumption, compact design, and robust privacy, outpacing traditional systems. This technology liberates patients from wired, bed-restricted EEG setups, significantly enhancing their quality of life.
