Research Statement

I envision a new generation of Internet of Materials (IoM) where the very materials of the objects and surfaces are augmented or manufactured to have computational capabilities.  These “computational materials” promises to further blur the distinction between the physical and digital worlds, thus bringing with itself an unprecedented opportunity for large-scale granular data sensing and trend analysis for traffic, air pollution, water table, or prediction of user’s action.

I have developed Computational materials that can wirelessly sense different phenomena like mechanical vibration, water leak, carbon-monoxide while still being thin and flexible in form factor, cheap to manufacture and self-sustainable in power operation.

My research work provides foundational building blocks for exploring different systems, design and manufacturing challenges for the age of the Internet of Materials and sets new research agendas for disciplines across science, engineering, and design.
