Dr. YANG Zhengbao has received two project grants from the Innovation and Technology Commission of HKSAR for developing self-powered and wireless autonomous sensors for vehicles. The two ITF projects are titled “Energy Harvesting and Wireless Torque Sensor System for Vehicles” and “Multi-sensing Smart Tire System for the Self-driving Technology”.
The current automotive industry is experiencing game-changing trends with the explosion of new technologies such as self-driving, electric cars, and the Internet of Things. Supported by these two projects, Dr. YANG and his research team will fabricate new piezoelectric materials, explore new energy conversion methods, optimize wireless power transfer and wireless communication techniques, and develop low-power circuits for the next-generator automotive sensor systems.
