Prof. Yang Chunyan visit HKSTP and CityU

I was honor that Prof. Yang Chunyan (楊春燕) (Director, Institute of Extenics and Innovation Methods, Guangdong University of Technology) visited HKSTP and CityU on 3^rd April 2018. In the morning, I arranged to visit HKSTP technology platforms such as Data Studio and Robotic Garage, and then visited our laboratories in afternoon. After that we visited the laboratories of Department of System Engineering and Engineering Management (SEEM) in CityU. Firstly, I took a photo with Prof. Yang in front of the Charles K Kao Auditorium (Golden Egg).

Since Extenics was a branch of Artificial Intelligence and one of their studies was Extensive Data Mining, I arranged to visit our Data Studio which was an open data platform in Hong Kong.

Our partner company representative explained different data platforms and its applications. The open data ranking of Hong Kong was 24^th in the world. The number one was Taiwan. Their government opened most of their data for App developers use.

Then they showed their applications using data mining such as salary income and solar car charger infrastructure, as well as, criminal data through newspaper (on time) searching.

Before finished the visit in Data Studio, we took a photo in front of data showcase for memory.

After that we visited our Robotic Garage. My colleague explained the activities in the garage including 3D printing, programming and some workshops.

Before lunch, I led Prof. Yang visited inside the Charles K Kao Auditorium (Golden Egg) and VIP room in which we could see outside.

After lunch, two of HKSQ exco members Ms. Jane Wong and Mr. Ben Tsang joined us to visit laboratories. We took a photo in the back side of the Golden Egg.

The first laboratory we visited was Biomedical Laboratories. We saw some LCMS, HPLC, etc.

We also visited the most advance equipment for DNA sequence analysis.

Then we visited to the Probe and Test Centre for wafer and IC testing under clean room environment. We took a photo in front of clean room.

Finally, we visited IC Failure Analysis Laboratory. Mr. TM Lau (Senior Manager) explained the equipment and its application to us.

The chemical process room for IC Decapsulation was showed.

Last laboratory we visited was Reliability Laboratory which was location in IC Development Centre.

Before we went to CityU, we took a group photo in front of our Brand HKSTP.

We arrived the meeting room of SEEM Dept., CityU. In the beginning, Dr. Ken Yau (Instructor, CityU) briefed the background and programmes in SEEM.

Then I introduced the EngD Programme which I had studied to Prof. Yang as well as some laboratories in the SEEM Dept. Those laboratories included Quality Inspection and Nondestructive Testing (QNDT) Laboratory, Smart Engineering Asset Management Laboratory (SEAM), Ergonomics and Work Design Laboratory, Reliability and Risk Analytics Laboratory, etc.

SEEM staff introduced the hardware simulation of warehouse logistics arrangement and then the software simulation was in the other laboratory.

Another type of hardware simulation of production line was showed. Student could program the flow through specific software to control the goods selection. In here, it could separate the color of goods.

In the Ergonomics and Work Design Laboratory, the staff showed one of student’s final year project that developed a robot for testing.

Software simulation was demonstrated using commercial software which was free for university.

Product test laboratory was also demonstrated which employed for TQE program.

Finally, we took a group photo in front of the Department of System Engineering and Engineering Management (SEEM).

Since we had time before the dinner, I led Prof. Yang to visit other place of CityU including Swimming Pool (in which we saw the donation from the Bank of China (HK)), AC1, AC2 and AC3.
