About

Dipanjan Sen is a rising researcher at the frontier of neuromorphic engineering and advanced optoelectronics. His work focuses on developing bio-inspired sensory systems that mimic biological vision, particularly for autonomous navigation in challenging environments. Sen’s most notable contribution is the design of an insect-inspired, spike-based collision detector that operates effectively at night, a feat that has long eluded conventional computer vision. By leveraging atomically thin, light-sensitive memtransistors, his system performs in-sensor processing—integrating sensing and computation directly on the device—enabling ultra-low-power, real-time hazard detection for drones and robots. Though his pioneering 2022 paper has garnered 3 citations, its conceptual impact is significant, laying the groundwork for a new class of hardware that overcomes the limitations of traditional night-vision cameras. Sen’s work stands out for its elegant fusion of neuroscience principles with two-dimensional materials, offering a path toward resilient, energy-efficient autonomy in low-light conditions. As autonomous systems proliferate, his bio-inspired approach promises to be a cornerstone of next-generation collision avoidance technology.
