Prof. Yang CHAI’s research has been honored with the Chip 2023 Top Ten Advances Award in China Chip Science

3 Sep 2024

Prof. Yang CHAI, the Management Committee member of RI-IWEAR, Associate Dean of Faculty of Science, together with his research team, has developed a biomimetic optoelectronic chip inspired by insects. It can achieve sensitive motion recognition of dynamic visual information with limited computational resources. By utilizing molybdenum disulfide phototransistors with shallow defect levels, the chip mimics the response characteristics of graded neurons in insect visual systems, effectively integrating temporal and spatial information encoding. This achievement is poised to provide insights for the advancement of intelligent visual systems, particularly in areas such as autonomous driving and surveillance systems. This research was honored with the Chip10 Science 2023 Award at the Chinese Chip Conference in Hubei, China.

The “Top Ten Advances in Chinese Chip Science” is an award selection initiated by the editorial board of “CHIP”, a comprehensive international English journal focused solely on chip-related research. Launched in January 2024, the event involved 150,000 online votes and participation from Chip editorial board experts, the Chip 2023 Top Ten Advances Award in China Chip Science were selected from 32 nominated accomplishments.

The research was published in Nature Nanotechnology:
