Department of Physics & Electronics of Ch.S.D.St.Theresa’s college for women has organized a three day Workshop on “Designing Concepts of Embedded systems and it’s Applications” on 20th to 22nd June 2024. In this altogether 58 students of III B.Sc. MPC,MPCS,MECS and I M.Sc. Physics were exposed to both theoretical and practical knowledge about EMBEDDED SYSTEMS & IT’S DESIGNING and it also helped them to get the overview of Embedded systems. V. Govinda Rao, resource person, started the theoretical session and enlightened students with basics of IOT (INTERNET OF THINGS). They came to understand clearly about IOT that it is simply the network of interconnected things or devices which are embedded with sensors, software, network connectivity and necessary electronics that enables them to collect and exchange data making them responsive. Students have taken up their own projects and they were divided into 10 groups.
They have done some case study on projects taken, studied every hardware component in detail and gathered the components, soldered components on printed board and designed their project with the help of team members of Microlink. Program code was dumped in their respective circuits. They have also verified their projects keenly and they explained how & why they have implemented their projects to other team members. Finally they completed gaining knowledge on IOT and EMBEDDED SYSTEMS & IT’S DESIGNING. The workshop has been completed equipping students with heaps of knowledge on Embedded Systems.
