My work focuses on translating ecological research needs into deployable engineering solutions through integrated hardware–software development. I specialize in building applied systems for wildlife monitoring, conflict mitigation, and conservation field operations, with an emphasis on automation, sensor integration, data acquisition, and real-time decision support.
In Taiwan, where human–wildlife conflicts and biodiversity monitoring demands are increasing, I have contributed to the development of several practical conservation technologies. These include automated deterrence and early-warning concepts for Formosan Black Bear management, gamified educational tools for human–bear conflict response, a mobile coastal bird monitoring RADAR platform, and low-cost cetacean bioacoustic systems for field education and marine conservation applications. My long-term goal is to advance AI-enabled ecological digitalization and automated monitoring platforms that reduce dependence on labor-intensive fieldwork while improving the quality, scalability, and temporal continuity of conservation data.
