ISD PhD Students Won Red Dot: Best of the Best Design Award 2025

Congratulations to our PhD students Tony CHUI and Jacky SHIN on receiving the Red Dot: Best of the Best Design Award 2025! 

Joined the Division under the supervision of Prof. Shenghui SONG and co-founded Novasdyne with Xiao Jian KONG, their company project “Chopstick - Autonomous Embodied AI Robot” introduces an autonomous AI-powered robot built with smart swarm intelligence and human-robot interaction, aiming to address the anticipated challenges of labor shortages driven by the aging population and reluctance for labor-intensive work. It features dual robotic arms to perform complex and repetitive hazardous tasks, an active suspension wheel system, and dual interchangeable batteries complemented by hot-swap battery stations, enabling 24/7 operation. Its deployment would be a new way to enhance productivity!
