葉嘉安教授榮獲第48屆日內瓦國際發明展銀牌及銅牌

Prof. Anthony Yeh, Member of the Hong Kong Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chair Professor of Department of Urban Planning and Design at the University of Hong Kong won a Silver and a Bronze Medal in the 48th International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva on 28 April 2023.  The Silver Medal is for his PI’s project “Smart Address Plates for Pedestrian Indoor Navigation and Location-Based Services and Management” and the Bronze Medal is for his Co-I’s project “Remote e-Inspection System for the Manufacturing and Delivery of Offsite Modular Construction” which has also received the Hong Kong ICT Smart Mobility (Smart Logistics) Gold Award in November 2022. He has obtained a Gold Medal in Geneva in 2018 for his “Angle Difference Method for Vehicle Navigation in Multilevel Road Networks”

1. Smart Address Plates for Pedestrian Indoor Navigation and Location-Based Services and Management (Silver Medal)
Traditionally, pedestrian navigation uses Location Positioning System (LPS) with trilateration to find the user’s position, which have very high positioning error for outdoor GPS and indoor positioning. This new solution adopts a cost-effective innovative Location Confirmation System (LCS) to accurately locate and guide the user to the destination by using Smart Address Plates (SAP) that transmit stored geographic coordinates with innovative 3D Smart Address (SA) codes to the users even without WiFi or telephone signals. This SAP system can help to find shops/ offices/ restaurants/ car parking spaces inside a multi-storey building accurately while providing location-based services and management for precise target marketing. It is highly scalable, connecting shops/rooms on a floor to a building, then to a district and to the whole city through a Smart Address Plate Management System (SAP-MS).

The Smart Address Plates and Location Confirmation System were developed by Professor Anthony Yeh, Dr Zhong Teng and Dr Run Shi from the Department of Urban Planning and Design, The University of Hong Kong.

2. Remote e-Inspection System for the Manufacturing and Delivery of Offsite Modular Construction (Bronze Medal)
This e-Inspection System is a Modular Construction Supply Chain Quality Assurance system that includes i-Core (an loT device attached to each MC module to monitor the position, humidity, temperature and collision data), e-InStar (an App for uploading the checking result of each production step in a remote factory to the block chain), e-TranStar (an App for monitoring the location and condition of the MC module in the transport process) and a blockchain-based backend. Designed for offsite modular construction use to help solve housing problems, it reduces resources required for supervision and paperwork while ensuring tamper-proof data, helping overcome the current difficulties in monitoring the quality of production and transportation from remote sites. The system has been piloted in an HKU project in Hong Kong with two 17-storey buildings using 952 MiC modules. This project has also received the Hong Kong ICT Smart Mobility (Smart Logistics) Gold Award in November 2022 and the 12th Guangdong-Hong Kong IoT Competition Best IoT Innovation Award in December 2022.
The system was developed by Prof Wilson Lu, Director of the iLab of the Faculty of Architecture, together with Professor Anthony Yeh, Chair Professor of the Department of Urban Planning and Design, and Mr KL Tam, Former Director of the Estates Office of the University of Hong Kong.
