Lab overview
The Data and Devices Lab at Nokia Bell Labs is a multi-disciplinary team of physicists, chemists, engineers, and computer scientists that explore novel devices and AI that will intimately couple humanity to the digital world. We work on both distributed physical – machine vision, chemical detection, air quality – and non-invasive physiological – biochemical, bioelectrical, and bio-optical – sensors from the physical layer to AI perception. We believe the intimate co-development of hardware and AI is key to enabling future ubiquitous, unobtrusive, multi-sensory systems that support industrial autonomization and the evolution of humanity towards Homo augmentus.
