IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Body Sensor Networks (IEEE BSN 2024)

From October 15–17, 2024, Zheng Liu, Xueyicheng Xu, and Prof. Alexander Mamishev participated as authors in the prestigious IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Body Sensor Networks (IEEE BSN 2024) held in Chicago, Illinois. Recognized as a premier event in digital health sensors and systems, IEEE BSN 2024 provided a cross-disciplinary platform that united experts and leaders from academia, industry, healthcare, and non-profit organizations.

At the conference, the team presented their paper "Sensor Fusion for Non-Intrusive Adaptive Distancing of Visually Impaired Users." This work introduces an innovative motion obstacle avoidance system to assist visually impaired individuals in navigating their environment. By leveraging sensor fusion technology, the system enhances obstacle detection and helps prevent potential injuries more efficiently and conveniently.

The conference featured a highly selective single-track program, highlighting groundbreaking research on devices and sensors, hardware and software systems, predictive models, and data analytics for advancing healthcare and medical technology.
