What Comes Next
Just some of the products that have emerged during the year as a result of HKUST research.

Healthy Time   A novel timepiece was exhibited at the Hong Kong Watch and Clock Fair in September, incorporating an ultraviolet radiation detector that warns wearers if they risk too much exposure from the sun. The device uses UV-detecting material invented by Dr Philip Iam Keong Sou, Department of Physics.

Going Up  Dr Chun Man Chan, Department of Civil Engineering, devised a computer package for the optimal design of tall building structures. This has been employed in the design of many buildings in Hong Kong, including the 88-story Two International Finance Centre.

Clearing the Air   A nanocatalyst-based environmental control system is being developed that can be used to produce pioneering products to improve indoor air quality. Work on the air remediation system has been led by Dr King Lun Yeung, Department of Chemical Engineering.

Light Fantastic   Prof Hoi Sing Kwok and Dr Man Wong, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, took part in the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology 863 program and successfully made the first full color organic light emitting diode display on an active-matrix back plane in China.
