Biography
Nonnarit O-Larnnithipong, Ph.D., is an Assistant Teaching Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Florida International University (FIU). He earned his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from FIU in 2018 and his B.Eng. in Mechatronics Engineering from Assumption University of Thailand in 2011.
During his doctoral studies at FIU’s Digital Signal Processing Laboratory (DSPLAB), O-Larnnithipong focused on developing sensor fusion algorithms to improve orientation tracking using MEMS inertial sensors, addressing gyroscopic drift in 3D hand motion tracking systems. He also contributed to projects in digital image processing, applying machine learning and deep learning techniques for pattern recognition and classification tasks. His expertise spans signal processing, embedded systems, artificial intelligence, and human-computer interaction.
After completing his Ph.D., O-Larnnithipong began teaching in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at FIU, where he has taught a variety of undergraduate and graduate courses, including C Programming for Embedded Systems, Introduction to Linear Systems in Engineering, Electronics I and Lab, Digital Signal Processing, and Advanced Systems Theory. His teaching emphasizes hands-on learning, real-world application, and the integration of AI and computational tools into engineering education. In Spring 2024, two of the senior design projects he mentored won first place in their respective categories.
From May 2024 to February 2025, O-Larnnithipong also served as a Research Analyst at FIU’s Applied Research Center (ARC), where he worked on the development of a web-based framework for visualizing Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) inversion data.
O-Larnnithipong, is committed to fostering innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and student success through teaching, mentorship, and research at FIU.
