Pilot studies show different handrub gestures can be sensed and recognised by analysing the radio signal variations in the receiver. Given the many social, economic and health advantages of low-cost and non-privacy intrusive hand gesture sensing --- including enabling interactions and communications with smart environments (e.g., homes and offices) in a natural way --- the proposed research promises multiple benefits while positioning Australia as smart buildings innovator.Read moreRead less
Airborne spatial tracking to save endangered species. Airborne spatial tracking to save endangered species. This project aims to develop an automated and distributed spatial tracking approach using low cost Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to locate and study endangered wildlife.

This project aims to develop an automated and distributed spatial tracking approach using low cost Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to locate and study endangered wildlife. Understanding animal behaviour and habits with granular spatial data is essential to develop effective monitoring and conservation strategies. Spatial tracking of radio collared wildlife using radio telemetry is a critical but costly tool for acquiring this data. This project anticipates that airborne spatial tracking using intelligent spatial tracking algorithms on board low cost UAV teams will allow more precise understanding of wildlife for evidence-based conservation and management in a changing global climate.Read moreRead less
