The Embedded Sensing and Computing (ESC) Group at the University at Buffalo, directed by Prof. Wenyao Xu, is dedicated to advancing translational AI and digital health — turning everyday sensing and artificial intelligence into trustworthy technologies that move from the laboratory to the clinic, home, and community. Our vision is to make continuous, intelligent, and equitable health insight available to everyone. Because real impact takes more than algorithms, we work across the entire translational pipeline — from sensing hardware and machine learning to clinical validation and deployment — in deep partnership with physicians, therapists, and health scientists across medicine, public health, dental medicine, nursing, and beyond. By co-designing technologies with the experts and patients who use them, the ESC Group bridges cutting-edge AI and real improvements in human health and well-being.
