Development of a device to assist individuals with significant visual degradation
The aim of this study is to develop a device that can assist blind or those with severely impaired vision to be able to have an improved ability to be able to walk safely in public places.
Applying artificial Intelligence to the Industrial Internet-of-Things
This research proposes the use of Artificial Intelligence techniques (including machine learning, intelligent signal processing, and advanced computer vision techniques) in analysing these large scale data sets to enable both remote condition monitoring of machinery and advanced process optimisation.
Eve Stirling
Dr Stirling trained as a product designer (Northumbria University) and before moving to academia worked in the design industry in interiors and games design. She gained her PhD from the School of Education at the University of Sheffield and in this she took a longitudinal ethnographic approach studying Facebook use by students in transition. She is interested in the proliferation of digital spaces within our everyday lives and the relationship between time and space within these.
