Research interests 

Automatic control system, unmanned vehicle system

Unmanned air vehicles (UAVs), unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) can be used in many civil applications such as real-time monitoring of road traffic, search and rescue operations, delivery goods, security, surveillance, precise agriculture. However, the control algorithm for those vehicles is challenging due to the combination of nonlinear and linear controllers. Other challenges of those vehicle systems are complicated fault detection, collision avoidance, and swarm. 

Weigh-in-motion system and applications

Accurately and reliably measuring the gross weight and static load of the axles of moving vehicles, especially trucks, is important for preventing road damage and improving traffic safety and monitoring efficiency. This type of vehicle weight measurement is called “weigh-in-motion” (WIM). The conventional purpose of WIM is solely the estimation of the vehicle gross weight. However, WIM is also valuable for estimating the static axle load and the height of the vehicle’s center of gravity, and possibly additional measurements.
