Research Center for Embedded Systems Technology and Creative Marketing

Foundational Purposes

It can be many people’s dream to fly a model plane in the sky. Over the recent years, with the advancement of embedded systems technologies, some model aircrafts are now able to fly in autopilot mode. The Center thus use model planes to introduce students into fundamental electrical knowledge, embedded systems, and programming. Students will learn to program through the process of remodeling model planes. We believe that activities such as building program-controlled model planes can inspire students to explore the possible applications of programming and embedded technology.

Center Personnel

The Center is directed by Professor Jung-Fu Tai of the Department of Information Management. Other center members are professors with related research interests and expertise, and project assistants who provide administrative and research support.

Funds Sources

Self-raised funds. We are currently applying for funds from research funding projects and industry-university cooperation funding programs.

Location

The Center is located at R249 in the College of Management.

Our Goals

The Center aims to provide an exchange platform that can facilitate student-teacher communication, foster students’ creativity and trigger their interest in programming. We also formed the NCNU Aviation Club, which allows students to learn to control and program model aircrafts.

The purposes of the Center are twofold: firstly, to inspire students to explore the possible applications of programming and embedded technology, and secondly, to facilitate exchanges among faculty of all fields in order to open up new research possibilities. The Center uses model planes to introduce students into fundamental electrical knowledge, embedded systems, and programming. Students will learn to remodel and build program-controlled model planes. In so doing, we hope to create an environment in which students can enjoy learning.
