SMART Lab

Intelligent systems – smart phones, smart materials, smart cars and smart homes – are all part of the IoT revolution. A longtime leader in the IoT movement, CALIT2 focuses its multidisciplinary expertise in the four research application areas with an emphasis on the end user. The institute doesn’t develop technology for the sake of developing it, instead CALIT2’s strength has always been developing technology solutions for empowering people. CALIT2 initiated the Sustainable Manufacturing Alliance for Research and Training (SMART), with the vision of empowering skilled workers to have greater autonomy and decision-making responsibilities – resulting in not only a more satisfied, masterful workforce, but also plants and factories that are more energy-efficient, productive and safer. The Smart Connected Worker team is made up of nine UCI faculty and researchers who will join with industrial partners, including Atollogy, Aerospace Corp., Honeywell, General Mills, Southern California Edison, Google, San Diego Supercomputing Center, and university partners UCLA and CSU Northridge.
