    I believe undergraduate research is a chance for students to grow into independent problem-solvers. My role as a mentor is to guide, not micromanage. I provide the tools, feedback, and support needed, but I expect students to take ownership of their learning and drive their own progress.

    I encouraged student to 
    •	Take initiative and explore solutions on their own
    •	Learn from challenges and setbacks
    •	Ask thoughtful questions and seek out resources
    •	Communicate clearly and manage their time responsibly

  overall_research_project_description: |
    As the elderly population continues to grow, understanding their daily activities has become increasingly important for designing supportive technologies that promote independence. This research project focuses on recognizing human activities—such as walking, sitting, or reaching—by analyzing data collected from various sensors.
    Students will work with sensors such as accelerometers and cameras to gather data and apply deep learning techniques to detect and classify different activities.
    Through this research experience, undergraduate students will gain hands-on skills in:
    •	Basic electronics and sensor setup
    •	Data collection and preprocessing
    •	Deep learning for activity recognition
    This is a great opportunity for students who are interested in AI, machine learning, sensor technologies, embedded systems, and biomedical applications.
