Led by the Innovation Lab (InLab) of Duke Kunshan University, we had a journey of exploration on Augmented Reality (AR) technology. This event unveiled the mystery of AR technology and was a hands-on experience to inspire creativity. The IWS event was held as scheduled on the afternoon of February 23, 2024, at Duke Kunshan University, attracting many curious participants about AR technology.
Abstract Optimal resource management has long been a central aspect of strategy games. Meanwhile, the past decade has seen a growing trend of integrating environmental conservation themes into games. This proposed topic seeks to investigate the specific features within game designs that have the potential to effectively promote environmental awareness among players. Additionally, it aims…
We are very pleased to announce the finalists of the second season of the DKU Innovation Challenge – a showcase of students’ critical thinking about the state of the art in different fields. After careful consideration, we present to you the outstanding projects that stood out:
Exploring the realms of bionics, engineering, industrial, and robotics has become an integral part of our daily lives. While creating robots from standardized parts is feasible, unleashing your creativity finds its best ally in 3D printing. The rapid growth of 3D printing technology has solidified its presence in the automotive, aerospace, industrial manufacturing, medical, and consumer electronics industries. Mastering 3D printing and modeling isn’t just a hobby; it’s a professional skill that has evolved significantly.
Kaiyuan Lou is a student of Data Science at Kunshan Duke University (DKU), class of 2024. He founded the Search-So project intending to provide a convenient information retrieval tool for teachers and students at DKU. Initially, he was solely responsible for development under the guidance of Professor Jiang Long. Gradually, he attracted more and more like-minded partners to join the team. As the project proceeded, they further discovered that what they were trying to solve was not just a purely technical problem, but a “darkness under the lamp” problem that is commonly found in many organizations: how to adapt internal resource websites and shared service systems to meet specific needs of users, improve information retrieval efficiency, and plan layouts reasonably? Thus, the business prospects, extended value and potential of this student project gradually emerged.
In spring 2024, InE will launch a themed ESS lecture series focusing on the domain of entrepreneurship and capital. This series aims to provide DKU students with in-depth insights into innovation and entrepreneurship from investors’ perspectives. In the first themed ESS, we are honored to have Mr. Kehan Dong, Head of Investment and Operations at MiraclePlus, to share with us the process of entrepreneurship from 0 to 1.
In the fall of 2023, U-Corp established close collaborations with six corporate partners/NGOs to conduct innovative and creative practice projects over a period of six months to a year. These projects focused on research into digital leadership strategies, rural cultural heritage conservation, the integration of folk songs with new media and biodiversity, corporate legal consulting and management roles, innovative community planning, and the current situation and sustainable development of EVs.
Biorobots, engineering robots, industrial robots — robots are almost everywhere in our lives. Have you ever wanted to create your own robot but didn’t know where to start? While it’s possible to assemble a robot using standardized parts, unleashing your imagination might require delving into 3D printing. On the evening of January 25th, join the 3D printing workshop at the Innovation Lab. Let’s explore the contributions of 3D printing and modeling to the world of robotics.
At Duke Kunshan University, Tianyi Zhang is a 2024 master’s student in Medical Physics, who majored in Electronic Information Engineering as an undergraduate and participated in DJI product development. Meanwhile, Renzo Balcazar Tapia is a 2025 undergraduate student in Data Science who comes from Peru, with research interests in algorithms and has won numerous awards in International Mathematical Olympiads. On the journey of learning and life, they were originally two clearly demarcated parallel lines. However, the college innovation and entrepreneurship project “Research on Autonomous Localization and Navigation Technology Algorithm of Robot” has brought these two parallel lines together, embarking on a road of scientific research.
This season is all about pushing the boundaries of innovation by employing the power of critical thinking to address real-world challenges and create meaningful change. It is also the first step in the application phase of the DKU innovation incubator (Dii). We encourage you to submit proposals that showcase your ability to think critically, analyze…
