The students of the final year had put on
display their projects at an exhibition, which was inaugurated by the
vice-chancellor of the Sindh University, Dr Mazharul Haq Siddiqui on Monday.
A group of students, Mohammad Sohail, Aisha Mehmood Ali, Syeda Arsala and
Abdul Qayoom Palijo developed projects on remote-controlled robotic
manipulator, which could do pick and place jobs in environments where it was
too dangerous for human to work.
The students informed the vice-chancellor during briefing that the project
could do the job of parts transfer and pick and place for industrial
purposes and general purposes as well.
BS electronics students, Ameer Bux Khoso, Ghulam Akbar Memon, Hamza Shabbir
and Fahad Ali Memon had developed an autonomous mobile pick and place robot
under the supervision of Prof Dr Abdul Wahab Ansari.
The robot could be used in biscuits industry. It was capable of picking a
tray of unbaked biscuits, placing it into the furnace and then taking it out
of the furnace after the biscuits were baked.
Mohammad Umair Shaikh, Mohammad Saleem, Sikandar Ali Dhiloo and Ms Tanzeel
Babar had developed a project under supervision of Dr Imdad Ismaili on
security system based on wireless communication in RF technology (CBSBW).
The project, the students said, would be helpful in providing security at
the residential areas and monitoring the security system.
Bushra, Mehrina, Sawak Ali and Sehrish Memon prepared online time table
management system. They said that the system would help in utilising
resources optimally as the timetable tool would make it simple for the
students to plan availability of human resources, physical resources and
rules applicable to each class.
Other students had put on display projects on remote vehicle control and
monitoring system, enterprise planning system for Thermal Power House
Jamshoro, radio base station, monitoring and controlling, design electronic
matrix unity for Arabic characters based codes, safe movement of trolley in
factory plants, voice and video over Internet protocol and computer-based
wireless robotic vehicle for monitoring and measurement.
The vice-chancellor praised the ingenuity displayed by the students in the
development of such projects and urged them to serve society with their
knowledge. He said that half the past century was dedicated to information
and communication technology and the 21st century was defined as the century
of biotechnology.
He said that despite facing financial constraints the university was trying
to provide all required facilities to its students. The Higher Education
Commission had provided funds liberally to the universities during last
seven years for filling the gap in higher education, he said.
The director of IICT, Dr Imdad Ali Ismaili, said in his presentation that
students of different disciplines had developed projects on various
subjects, which would be helpful to many institutes, organisations and
industries of the country.
He said that BS Information Technology students had developed 24 projects,
BS Software Engineering 19, BS Telecommunications 14 and students of BS
Electronics had prepared 14 projects.
He said that the IICT was covering areas like web-based application,
hardware design, E-commerce application, information systems, navigation
systems, security systems, communication systems, software re-engineering
and multimedia.
A total of 71 projects displayed at the exhibition were developed by 249
students under the supervision of 16 faculty members, including Dr Abdul
Wahab Ansari, Dr Imdad Ismaili, Dr Asad Shaikh, Prof Arifa Bhutto, Prof
Shahid Larik, Prof Raza Shah. |
