ImpactEar accepted to ACM IMWUT 2026
Our work on cross-activity ground reaction force estimation using earable IMUs has been accepted to ACM IMWUT 2026.
Florida State University · Computer Science
We develop sensing systems and computational methods for understanding human behavior, monitoring health and wellness, and supporting interaction with the physical world.
About
Our research lies at the intersection of wearable sensing, mobile computing, and artificial intelligence. We investigate fundamental sensing and systems questions and translate them into technologies that operate reliably in everyday environments. Our goal is to design and develop mobile computing technologies that intelligently respond to real-world needs and meaningfully improve quality of life.
