Photonic_Workshop@CCMS.NTU has successfully developed a motorized micro-mapping system to explore and navigate samples. This system is able to acquire high resolution images to produce a sample map automatically. This map is also synchronized with the coordinates of motorized stages. This achievement allows users to explore and position their hotspots from the map, and precisely deploy the hotspot to the central field of view by motorized stages. In addition, this mapping system can combine with a laser scanning confocal spectral microscope (LSCSM) to acquire sample spectral mapping. Our result has shown the capability to improve the efficiency of hotspot positioning and data acquisition process.

A 3D wireless tracking system for minimally invasive spine surgery navigation is developed based on the mm-wave radar technique. It has the benefit of multi-target trackingsmall-sized transponder. With the cooperation of radar systemtriangulation algorithm, the maximum error of 3D positioning is less than 1.8 mm in the distance of 1.2 m

With our autonomous UAV systems, we can effectively reduce many high-riskhigh-cost inspections which require high manpower, such as inspections of dams, river, coastline patrols, etc Operators only need to setuplaunch the system to allow the UAV to complete the designated tasks independently. The UAV will fly autonomously through visual navigation,will detect, record, measuremark the specified objects accordingly, while updating information to the satellite aerial image using spatial positioning technology, so that stakeholders can have a more comprehensive understanding on overall situation.

This theme is designed to implement the robot＇s appearancepractical functions. Apply PSPNet to detect the walkable planeYolo to detect obstacles, so that the robot has the autonomous obstacle avoidance function, informing more information about the environmental obstacles around the visually impaired,apply CNN to locate indoor position with self-built indoor database.

"Intra-needle ultrasound - anesthesia probe provides an innovative way to puncture preciselysafely in thoracic regional anesthesia, especially for high BMI patients. In clinical practice, the anesthetic techniques are performed under ultrasound-guidance. The unmet medical need is to resolve the difficulty in needle tip imaging for high BMI patients. This technique provides an innovative way for pleura identification, tracking, distance measuring,early warning in real-time. It greatly reduces the risk of pleural puncturepneumothorax,improves the safety."

Two indoor positioning techniques are presented. The first one is a monocular vision based landmark matching scheme for identifying absolute indoor locations. The scheme requires just one photo shotmatches it with a landmark database to obtain the location. The landmark data base can be easily adapted to different fields. The proposed scheme is highly computing efficient. The correct landmark identification rate is up to 90the positioning accuracy is 1.5m. The second one is a relative positioning scheme based on ultra-wide band (UWB) technology. It can be employed on an automatic guided vehicle (AGV) to implement the trailing function. The accuracy of positioning is 80cm.

iTech has developed an Innovative Wireless Positioning&Tracking System. iShield can simultaneously detect drones & operators. iPosition tracks thousands of targets indoor. iFollow is an auto-following function for smart droids.

Drone delivery is a popularemerging application at present. However, existing drone delivery systems can only deliver to outdoor open spaces via GPS,cannot directly to the interior of recipient＇s building. In the era of covid-19 pandemic, we aim to reduce human contactpropose a drone delivery system that can deliver packages to the doorstepthe interior of buildings,to achieve fully automatic control of the drone by developing visual positioning technique.
