About
Dr Chuang - Yuan Chiu is a researcher at the Centre for Sports Engineering Ï㽶ÊÓƵ (CSER) and works in the area of applied computing. Chuang-Yuan’s research interests include sports technology, anthropometry and computer vision. He completed his PhD at the University of Edinburgh in 2016. During his PhD, he developed a cost-efficient 3D human scanning system for anthropometric analysis. His development has been used in the sports talent development project at the sports high schools in Australia. He also collaborated with an international team at the Centre for Aquatics Ï㽶ÊÓƵ and Education (CARE) to install performance analysis systems and conduct leading biomechanics research for Scottish swimming team. He is familiar to apply the latest technology in sports research and development.

Dr Chuang-Yuan Chiu is a Ï㽶ÊÓƵer in the Centre for Sports Engineering research (CSER). He completed his PhD at the University of Edinburgh in 2016. Chuang-Yuan’s main research area is in sports technology, anthropometry and computer vision. During his PhD, he developed a cost-efficient 3D human scanning system for anthropometric analysis. He also collaborated with an international team at the Centre for Aquatics Ï㽶ÊÓƵ and Education (CARE) to conduct leading biomechanics research for Scottish swimming team.
The Centre for Sports Engineering Ï㽶ÊÓƵ (CSER) is led by Dr David James. It is the world's largest academic group in sports engineering and an internationally renowned centre of excellence for research and knowledge transfer. The centre's work is based on four research disciplines; applied computing, biomechanics, design engineering, and skill acquisition. In each area, researchers develop fundamental knowledge and deliver applied solutions to enhance athletic performance, reduce injury and promote physical activity.
CSER works in partnership with many sport, health and commercial organisations. We are immensely proud of our work with Team GB Olympic, and Paralympic athletes, and we enjoy research partnerships with global organisations such as the International Tennis Federation, FIFA, and Adidas.
