With remote podcasting here to stay, you’ll want to make sure you have the perfect space for recording at our Podcast studio. It builds with those acoustic foam which reduces resonating frequencies within the space, increasing the quality of your audio recordings. let’s look for more equipment in this page!
IIIs for VIPs is an SIG collaborating with our supervisor Dr. Joseph Chan. It aims to provide a space where students can create inventions which help improve the daily lives of visually impaired persons (VIPs). We welcome students from engineering, medicine and interested students from other faculties.
Our SIG will support our members in finishing their projects until it becomes available for public use. Any project with the purpose of improving the activities of daily living for VIPs are welcome.
Event Hall, a versatile activity space located on the lower ground floor of our innovation center. With its large indoor area, the Event Hall is the perfect venue for hosting a wide range of activities, including talks, workshops, exhibitions, and events. Additionally, students can book the space to test their robotics, flying drones, and even hold initial courses. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and flexible seating arrangements, the Event Hall provides a dynamic and engaging environment to stimulate creativity and innovation. Whether you are looking to showcase your latest project or host an immersive learning experience, the Event Hall is the ideal space for your next big idea.

We are forming a new interest group at the Innovation Wing, as a collaboration with humanities and educational researchers at HKU.
In this group, we plan to pursue several interdisciplinary projects that will improve the ways we can study and teach about the human past. Our projects will include uses of augmented and virtual reality in recording, teaching, and presenting archaeological sites. We are also studying the use of machine learning and computer vision for several purposes to study visual datasets such as satellite images of ancient landscapes. We work with a field project that travels to Armenia each summer to excavate. We welcome anyone who would like to join our team, from any Faculty. We especially invite engineers and computer scientists, but we also have many other projects which anyone with an interest can join.
Let’s learn about the human past together! Thank you!
