Acoustic-Sensing Based Soft Silicone Sensors for Motion Tracking
This project aims to develop a novel wearable sensing system using commercial speaker, microphone and flexible silicone tubes. By analyzing the time and frequency domain variations of acoustic signals propagating through the tube, the project explores how to detect structural deformations and cracks caused by body movements. The research involves circuit design, signal processing and mechanical design.

Custom Wireless Readout Circuit for Triboelectric Nanogenerator (TENG) Sensing and Energy Harvesting
This project aims to design and realize a custom single-PCB wireless readout circuit optimized for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs). Unlike previous designs that relied on assembling multiple commercial off-the-shelf PCBs, this project will integrate the functionalities of signal conditioning, energy harvesting, and wireless data transmission onto one compact, low-power circuit board.
