YangQuan Chen received his PhD degree in advanced control and instrumentation from the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Currently, he is a full professor at the University of California Merced. His Mechatronics, Embedded Systems and Automation (MESA) Lab at UC Merced is emerging as a widely known “drone lab” with the vision to build an “agriculture drone valley” in California’s Central Valley. The lab’s work on low-cost, reliably airworthy, multispectral UAV-based remote sensing systems helps create a new type of information services valuable not only for farming and growing, but also for environmental monitoring and assessment. Prof Chen has published over 300 peer-reviewed paper and more than 20 books/book chapters.
