Impact Accelerator Challenge
Kexin showcased our legged robot scanning and Scan2BIM solution at the CDE Impact Accelerator Challenge, earning 2nd runner-up and $70,000 grant to further develop Scan2BIM robot. Congratulations to her on this great accomplishment.
Top 2% Scientists 2024, Elsevier & Stanford University
It is a great honor that Dr Vincent has been listed in the Top 2% Scientists 2024 updated database, made at Stanford University [Ioannidis, 2024]. Stanford University has recently published an update of the list of the top 2% most widely cited scientists in various disciplines, which is the most prestigious ranking in the world. The selection is based on the top 100,000 scientists by c-score (with and without self-citations) or a percentile rank of 2% or above in the sub-field based on Scopus data provided by Elsevier.

ASCE International Conference on Computing in Civil Engineering, Pittsburgh, USA
Dr Vincent presented a paper on "3D Scene Reconstruction Using Robotics and LiDAR Sensor" at ASCE International Conference on Computing in Civil Engineering (i3CE) in Pittsburgh, USA. This study introduces an automated as-built 3D reconstruction technique utilising robotics and LiDAR sensors. This integration aims to achieve comprehensive 3D mapping and thorough acquisition of point cloud data.
International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction, Lille, France
Dr Vincent presented a paper on "Automated As-built 3D Reconstruction Using Quadruped Robot and 3D LiDAR Sensor" at the 41st International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (ISARC) in Lille, France. This study details a method for creating 3D models automatically using a quadruped robot and a 3D LiDAR sensor. The method combines the LiDAR Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithm with robot control to produce detailed 3D/2D maps and gather complete point cloud data.
