Current and Past Project Activities

 

1.     LIGHT4HEALTH: Health Research-Based Innovative Open Educational Resources and Tools for Lighting Design Students and Professionals

Eramus +, KA2 - Cooperation for Innovation and the Exchange of Good Practices, KA203 - Strategic Partnerships for higher education, 20019-2021

Status: Ongoing

Abstract: L4H’s Consortium will develop a novel educational course to teach health research methods and findings to lighting designers at graduate level. The course will be based on the Health Research-Based Innovative Open Educational Resources and Tools for Lighting Design Students and Professionals designed by Consortium and Associated partners. Project partners will benefit from Erasmus+ funding to develop together a cross-disciplinary course on the intersection of lighting design and health research by selecting the most relevant health research methods, tools, and findings in Neurology, Photobiology, Neuroendocrinology, Neurobehavioral Studies, Psychophysiology of Perception, as well as Behavioural, Cognitive and Environmental Psychology, and introducing them into lighting design curricula. The course will be extended with rich and professionally produced open educational materials, and an online Virtual Lab platform aimed at accessibility and fostering implementation across Europe. In addition, the project will facilitate the learning mobility opportunities for both students and staff of participating universities through a series of summer schools.

2.     LIGHTEL: Energy efficient lighting design for improving well-being of elderly through intelligent circadian lighting

ElForsk project, 2016-2018

Status: Completed

Abstract: Albertslund municipality inaugurated in 2016 its ambitious new health center with medical practitioners, rehabilitation facilities and housing for different groups of care recipients. LIGHTEL installs LED lights with sensors and an advanced intelligent management system. It allows citizens to be ‘prescribed’ a light that supports well-being and health in the form of circadian rhythm and sleep. The light can also prevent depressions and 'winter mood'. The evaluation of the proposed lighting design will be based on a "holistic" approach involving anthropological (mood & behaviour), sensor-based (actigraphy) and medical factors. With a growing proportion of elderly citizens, not just in the Danish population, but throughout Europe, the potential is enormous for obtaining societal benefits in terms of energy savings and in the form of improved health and safety.

3.     Smart Lighting v2

AAU post-doc project: Knowledge for the world

Status: Completed

Abstract: Smart lighting up to now, is considered as a lighting technology that is focusing mainly on the energy efficiency of lighting systems [1]. This technology includes high efficiency fixtures and simple automated controls that make adjustments based on conditions such as occupancy or daylight availability. But smart lighting can be further extended by including more intelligent controls and methods, aiming not only at higher energy savings, but also at providing human centric lighting by improving people’s well-being. In this context, the goal of this post-doc is to use and adapt major technological developments in artificial intelligence, computer vision and machine learning, so that lighting systems can be designed to be more effective, personalized and meet the needs of people.

4.     The DockWeeder robot for weed detection based on images

EU AGRI-NET project 2016-17

Status: Completed

Abstract: Broad-leaved dock (Rumex obtusifolius L.) is a common and troublesome weed with a wide geographic distribution. The weed is readily consumed by livestock but its nutritive value is less than that of grass. In conventional dairy farming, the weed is normally controlled by using herbicides. In organic farming, no synthetic pesticides are used and there is a risk that broad-leaved dock will spread. The solution proposed here consists of creating a robot that is capable of exploring a pasture by relying on GPS, equipping it with an array of sensors to detect the weed, and also equipping it with a non-chemical method to eliminate detected weeds. We use an existing, robust autonomous platform, we advance the state of the art of weed detection by combining two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) imaging, and we adopt and optimize an innovative, environment-friendly hot-water treatment to eliminate weeds.

5.     The Parenthetical Window: Performing in a full Multimodal Artificial Environment adapted to the Circadian Rhythm

Post-doc project, Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies, 2016

Status: Completed

Abstract: Parenthetical Window is a research project that proposes a lighting design for dark rooms and basements, which preserves the best possible conditions for human activity. The endeavor is a cultivation of the full sensorium using abstract forms of art (light, soundscape, fragrances) and its narratives (the illusion of perspective) in order to create a multimodal experience for the user. In this effect, a changeable periodic evaluation will be set in a case-study room by connecting change of light with other senses (smell, corporeal cognition, entertainment).

Partners: AAU, Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies

Post: Project’s collaborator

 

6.     The Open Solution Platform

TechnioSpring Project, 2015-2016

Status: Completed

Abstract: The proposed project is a human feed-back provider service. This service is provided through a novel multipurpose platform that combines crowdsourcing and crowdfunding concepts. It is mainly intended for solving digital problems that cannot be done for computers alone due to their nature (i.e. extract semantic information from an image, understand the meaning of a tweet, identify actions in video sequences, etc.). The source data to be analyzed is pre-proceed for its optimal human-based "understanding" and it is distributed through the users that will provide the required solution (after an automatic validation process based on a function that incorporates the reliability of the users and a redundancy factor).

8.     CPH:Sense – Capturing, Processing and Visualizing traffic data

Collaborative innovation project about intelligent transport systems (ITS), 2014

Status: Completed

Abstract: CPH:Sense suggests a multimodal and distributed approach to get the view on the street space use. Computer Vision and other sensor-based non-intrusive techniques are employed to understand and characterize the street space, featuring state-of-the-art recognition techniques in order to get the semantics out of the scene. To that end, we developed a micro capsule based on a single board computer aiming at improving the capturing, the processing and the visualization of traffic data trough a black-box / local processing oriented approach: this approach permits to stream highly processed forms of information, avoiding the unwanted stream of images and bypassing then any possible privacy issue; this also leads to the possibility of saving historical data and to keep the global infrastructure very light, cheap and agile to scale. The CPH:Sense is based on an Open Hardware and Open Data approach, which makes possible to imagine and create further development both of the sensors and the software in every moment.
