Welcome!
Our lab is headed by Professor Sujit Dey, who is also the Director of UC San Diego Center for Wireless Communications, and the Director of the Institute for the Global Entrepreneur. Our research projects aim towards enabling preventive and personalized healthcare, mobile immersive multimedia experiences, and smart and clean transportation solutions, through innovations in multi-modal sensor fusion, deep learning algorithms and architectures, edge computing, multimedia networking, and sustainable communications.
Professor Dey has created inter-disciplinary programs involving multiple UCSD schools as well as community, city and industry partners; notably the Connected Health Program in 2016 and the Smart Transportation Innovation Program in 2018.
