CITRIS and the Banatao Institute
Creating information technology solutions for society's most pressing challenges
In times of unprecedented drought, great benefit could be obtained with centimeter-scale data on moisture levels and the ability to respond with equally precise and timely water delivery. In this project we will explore how teams of robots can cooperate to gather such data and guide precision irrigation. Cloud-Based Robotics will be the basis for systems that can share data, learn, and improve over time. For more information visit: RAPID website
Surgical robotics and health informatics are two key technologies that form the basis of a collaboration between the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University (FAH-SYSU) and CITRIS.
Research partners from Health Tequity, CITRIS Health, MITRE Corp., UC Davis and UC Merced worked with health care teams at Livingston Community Health, patients and community members to identify digital health barriers and co-create new ways to address them.
Working in partnership with senior living providers, Lighthouse researchers conducted focus groups with residents and staff to identify barriers to technology use.
