The Physical AI and Wireless Systems group at Kokkola University Consortium Chydenius explores how intelligence and connectivity transform the interaction between the digital and physical worlds. We develop AI-based systems capable of independent decision-making and operation in real-world environments.
We also design wireless embedded solutions that sense and process data from their surroundings. Our research spans from fundamental studies to practical applications, advancing smarter, more resilient, and more adaptable technologies.


Our research activities are mainly based on project funding in close collaboration with companies and other partners. We have extensive experience in RDI activities as well as in transferring research results and expertise into practice.
Our goal is to continue implementing projects in our key research areas that are relevant to both industry and SMEs. RDI activities are also strongly linked to the Master’s (FM) and Master of Science in Technology (DI) programs offered by our unit, ensuring a close connection between research and education.
Our R&D efforts have led to the creation of several applications designed for different purposes. More information about these can be found below.
