Labs
Aware Home Research Initiative
The Aware Home Research Initiative (AHRI) at Georgia Institute of Technology is an interdisciplinary research endeavor aimed at addressing the fundamental technical, design and social challenges for people in a home setting. Central to this research is the Aware Home, a 3-story, 5040 square foot facility designed to facilitate research while providing an authentic home environment.
Child Study Lab
The Child Study Lab studies early social, communication, and play behavior in children, including those who are experiencing problems in their development. The lab brings together computer science and psychology to build new tools to measure behavior, with the goal of improving early screening for autism and other developmental delays.
Digital Building Laboratory
The Georgia Tech Digital Building Laboratory's (DBL) purpose is to develop a strong research and development link between the building industry and the building research-related capabilities of Georgia Tech to improve the innovation cycle. The DBL was formed to respond to the current and future challenges within the design and construction industry: new Information Technologies, new methods of project delivery, new approaches to eliminate waste and make construction "lean", new energy and sustainability challenges.
Healthcare Robotics Lab
The Healthcare Robotics Lab research seeks to advance the capabilities of real robots so that they can provide valued assistance to people in unstructured environments. Projects involve research into human-robot interaction, autonomous mobile manipulation, machine perception, machine learning, and haptics.
HomeLab
HomeLab is a statewide network of adults 50 years of age and older recruited to evaluate the in-home usability and effectiveness of consumer products designed for the aging adult population.
Information and Communication Technologies
This lab is broadly interested in information and communication technologies (ICTs) – in particular, the internet and mobile phones – in low-income and low-infrastructure countries and contexts.
Interactive Product Design Lab
The Interactive Product Design Lab (IPDL), part of the School of Industrial Design at Georgia Tech, is a multi-functional space that supports interdisciplinary team-based collaborative research. The lab facilitates courses related to the application of sensor-based technologies for use in everyday products and systems.
Participatory Publics Lab
PPL is a group of researchers, students, and community members working to define Digital Civics. The lab is focused on integrating design, technology, and public engagement to create the cities and communities we want to inhabit.
SimTigrate Design Lab
The SimTigrate Design Lab is an interdisciplinary research effort dedicated to driving healthcare innovation through the integration of evidence-based design and simulation. The SimTigrate team seeks to transform healthcare, predict and optimize outcomes and decrease cost.
National Centers
AI Institute for Collaborative Assistance and Responsive Interaction for Networked Groups (AI-CARING)
The AI-CARING mission is to develop the next generation of personalized collaborative AI systems that improve the quality of life and independence of aging adults living at home.
National AI Institute for Adult Learning and Online Education
A research institute funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and Accenture through NSF. Led by the Georgia Institute of Technology, AI-ALOE will develop an AI-based transformative model for online adult learning that can meet the challenge for Adult Learning and Online Education.
