ICIC team presented the CogDNA study (a cognition-driven information systems for emergency responders) at the NIST PSCR conference in Chicago July 8-12. We were also glad to give a demo to NIST Director Dr. Walter Copan (https://www.nist.gov/people/walter-g-copan).

ICIC Lab moved to the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering at University of Florida in January 2019. We are so excited about the new journey. Go Gators!

Dr.Du gave a TEDx talk at Texas A&M University in May 2018.  “Things can talk; and the common language is their vibrations. Dr. Eric Du introduces an economic method of upgrading millions of devices into Internet of Things (IoT), which has the potential to change the way we all live and work.”

NIST Public Safety Communication Research (PSCR) team visited ICIC Lab in Aug 2018.
