Projects
Major research projects on ultra low-power wireless communication, battery-free sensing, and AI agents for embedded systems, with the publications and awards associated with each.
Next-gen Low-power RF Transceivers
M² — Microwatt Microwave Oscillator
A 105 µW standalone microwave transceiver that needs no external carrier, unlike backscatter.
AudioCast
Sub-200 µW tags that broadcast data as FM audio over 130 m to any commodity FM receiver.
Battery-free Sensing & Backhaul
TunnelSense
Non-contact, low-power sensing from the resonant-frequency shifts of a tunnel-diode oscillator.
Battery-free AirTags
Sticker-sized battery-free tags and gateways that backhaul sensor data over Apple's Find My network.
AI Agents for Embedded Systems
LoopHIL
LLM agents that build and debug wireless embedded systems with real hardware in the loop.
Mixed Reality & Optical Networking
PixelGen
Low-power embedded cameras for mixed reality, with a generative model standing in for the image sensor.
Li-Fi for XR
Networking AR/MR headsets through visible light, including spatially confined "information spotlights".
