“Accurately measuring dust height is crucial for tracking plumes in three dimensions, predicting dust’s impact on weather and climate, and assessing air quality risks,” said Jun Wang, the director of the Atmospheric and Environmental Research Lab at the University of Iowa.

Two professors at the University of Iowa are developing a new camera system that uses Artificial Intelligence to detect child abuse as it’s happening.

University of Iowa researchers working on camera that uses AI, physics to detect physical abuse in vulnerable populations.

Karim Abdel-Malek, University of Iowa professor and interim director of the Iowa Technology Institute, and social work Associate Professor Aislinn Conrad are working to develop an artificial intelligence camera system that could eventually track and catch child abuse as it happens.

Fatima Toor, the Lowell G. Battershell Chair in Laser Engineering at the University of Iowa, has been awarded a $999,985 grant aimed at advancing the development of next-generation computing technologies.

Earlier this year, the University of Iowa's National Science Foundation awarded a $6 million grant for a project to help midwestern agricultural communities deal with the changing climate.

Thanks to a grant from the National Science Foundation, the University of Iowa will be using tech of its own design to improve climate and weather predictions in rural areas.

The University of Iowa has secured a $6 million, four-year grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to spearhead a multistate initiative aimed at aiding Midwest agricultural communities facing the increasing challenges of severe weather, including floods, droughts, and heat waves.

Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works advanced projects division has partnered with the University of Iowa’s Operator Performance Laboratory to demonstrate the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in air-to-air intercept scenarios.
