Dean’s Catalyst Awards Announced for 2025
The awards aim to give an early boost to bold ideas in research.
Using the Light We Can’t See
The more sophisticated data processing the Goyal team is developing might be used for mapping and navigation for autonomous vehicles, among other applications.
Vivek Goyal Named a 2024 Guggenheim Fellow
Goyal earned the prestigious honor in part on the strength of his prediction-making algorithms and his ground-breaking imaging technology.
Hard to Picture
Using light and shadow to “see” around corners, at the speed of a snapshot.
Visionary, Recognized: Professor Goyal an AAAS Fellow
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering congratulates Professor Vivek Goyal on his appointment as a 2022 Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS); a prestigious honor, and richly deserved.

Stealth Driverless Cars without Visible Light?
Goyal will team with MIT to advance DARPA’s Invisible Headlights program, which uses thermal emissions as a primary data source for autonomous vehicle navigation By Emma Silva for Center for Information & Systems Engineering Vivek Goyal, Professor (ECE) and a CISE Faculty Affiliate, recently received a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) subaward for his […]
Professor Goyal’s Record-Breaking Long Distance NLOS Imaging Featured in PNAS
by Caroline Amato The March 9, 2021 issue of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the USA (PNAS) published findings from a collaboration between BU ECE Professor Vivek Goyal, and researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China. These findings result from a demonstration of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging and tracking from […]
