ͯÑÕÊÓƵ

I am an Associate Professor in Media Technology, with a passion for combining research and teaching to create meaningful impact. My work bridges the fields of Precision Livestock Farming, Media Technology, and Interaction Design.

As a researcher, I focus on developing sensor-fusion systems and computer vision technologies that support the automation of animal behaviour monitoring and welfare management. I am especially interested in how technology can be used to improve animal welfare and contribute to more sustainable farming practices. My research has primarily focused on dairy and sheep production systems.

Some key areas of my research include:

• Real-time locating systems to study dairy cattle's indoor movement and social interactions
• Computer vision and sensor-fusion systems for identifying and tracking individual animals
• Behaviour analysis methods for understanding both basic and social animal behaviours
• Big data analysis, data visualisation, and machine learning
• Internet of Things (IoT) applications in Precision Livestock Farming
• Human-machine interface design and analysis

Alongside my research, I am dedicated to teaching and engaging students in the areas of Media Technology and Interaction Design, helping them explore how digital technologies can be used to solve real-world problems and shape the future.

I teach in the interaction design field.
