The Industrial AI Research Centre empowers and enhances industry using sensor systems designed to detect and measure specific physical properties or environmental conditions and convert them into usable signals or data.
These systems allow smarter and more efficient management of processes across diverse industries, including aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, healthcare, environmental monitoring, and many others. They provide essential information for decision-making, control processes, safety, and research.
Health Care Impact
Our research has helped to transform monitoring and responses to challenges in the health care sector. Our teams combine engineering, drones, cameras, and artificial intelligence to monitor people’s vital health signs remotely.
In 2020 the University of South Australia joined forces with the world’s oldest commercial drone manufacturer, Draganfly Inc, to develop technology which remotely detects the key symptoms of COVID-19 – breathing and heart rates, temperature, and blood oxygen levels. Within months, the technology had moved from drones to security cameras and kiosks, scanning vital health signs in 15 seconds and adding social distancing software to the mix.
We have applied this technology to the wider health industry to enhance speed and response times. We’ve worked to develop systems that can detect jaundice in newborn babies within one second, reducing invasive blood tests and supporting medical professionals to deliver quality health care.
Our systems are easily adaptable to a variety of industries and scenarios. We create systems that are both quick and highly accurate, whilst reducing the cost of traditional monitoring methods.
At the Industrial AI Research Centre we can provide cutting-edge expertise to produce future-ready solutions tailored to each challenge. If you would like further information about our collaboration opportunities please contact us.
