About
Unsoo Ha is a leading researcher at the intersection of low-power electronics, wireless systems, and environmental sensing. His most impactful work centers on developing battery-free, wirelessly powered imaging systems for extreme environments, with a landmark 2022 paper on “Battery-free wireless imaging of underwater environments” (81 citations) that demonstrates how to capture high-quality images in the deep ocean without onboard batteries. This breakthrough addresses a critical bottleneck in marine science, enabling long-term, untethered observation of previously inaccessible ecosystems. Ha’s contributions extend to energy-harvesting circuit design, backscatter communication, and computational imaging, collectively pushing the boundaries of sustainable sensing. His work has been recognized with multiple best paper awards and features in top-tier venues like IEEE ISSCC and Nature. By removing the need for batteries, Ha’s innovations promise to transform oceanography, climate monitoring, and underwater robotics, making continuous, autonomous imaging a practical reality for scientists exploring the last uncharted frontiers on Earth.
