AION LAB / KYUNG HEE UNIVERSITY
Research
Circuits that connect real-world signals to useful on-chip intelligence.
OUR FOCUS
From sensing to silicon intelligence.
Our research spans analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits, neural interface systems, physical AI sensor ICs, and processing in memory. We bring circuit-level rigor to systems designed for the real world.
