Human-AI Teaming Supported Role Plays for Complex Skill Development
Artificial-Expert guided role-play sessions with interactive virtual-standardized-patients/characters for comprehending and developing proficiency of complex professional and communication skills:
Multi-modal interactive virtual standardized patient (conversational/behavioral agent), e.g., Alice ASD featuring a new college student with autism spectrum disorders
Human-AI teaming based approach that address limitations of current training practices that lack:
Sufficient practice opportunities
Comprehensive sets of training cases
Timely and accurate assessment, feedback and coaching
Reasonable operating complexity and time
Sustainable acquisition and operation
Use of smartphone/tablet AR that maximizes the distribution and spread
Available for use by any user at any time in any location
Partially funded by the LexisNexis Ohio Eminent Scholar endowment, established by LexisNexis and the Ohio Board of Regents at Wright State University.
Use Technology to Combat the Opioid Problem
Most Opioid dependency start from prescribed Opioid-based Painkillers
Patient need an alternative
AR-Based Pain and rehabilitation management solutions
Coaching the patient through AR-based interactive games
Automatically assessing the effectiveness of exercises and therapy routines
Selecting and designing individually-customized exercise/ routines for optimal rehabilitation result for each patient

Distributed medical collaborations such as surgery training for new doctors, refresher procedure training, remote surgery, robot-assisted surgery, etc.
Augment HoloLens’ body recognition and tracking capabilities using low-cost sensory systems, e.g., Kinect and Leap.
Build complete human atlas, display instructions and feeding only the closely associated information as the surgeon is progressing through the surgery.
A blockchain-based ecosystem designed to bring together the subject matter experts and AI/AR/VR experts
Significant effort required to build professionally validated AI/AR/VR assets.
E.g., creation of functional human atlas demands close collaborations between doctors and developers
Even harder to share these assets
Many such assets are exclusive only to the development team, NOT open to others
Need an ecosystem to bridge the gap between the subject matter expertise and the technical expertise

Holoportation systems help overcome the cost, distance, language and expertise barriers in many social and economic activities
Offer great potential for empathic computing to help people to interact and share what they see, hear and feel.
Current holoportation system requires the use of extensive camera-arrays and powerful server system.
Thus, they suffer in mobility and applicability in real-world scenarios.
Address the mobility issues by proposing and validating the feasibility of a highly portable holoportation system using off-shelf devices
Have completed a successful prototype using Microsoft HoloLens and Kinect.
AI-based smart charging helps EV and Grid owners who want to automate, secure and sustain the EV–GRID energy flows by relieving the drivers of a routine but complex duty and providing an equalizer between the fast penetration of EVs and a relatively slow expansion of the Power Grid capacity.
A critical part of the Autonomous Mobility Future
Fully Personalized solution that desynchronize and distribute the charging activities for improved grid load diversity
Augment existing SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) for more accurate and reliable match between demand and supply and reduced Grid maintenance and operation cost.
