Sindh University students developed robots
A remote vehicle control and monitoring system and an enterprise planning system
Hyderabad, Jan 14: Students of the Institute of Information and
Communication Technology (IICT) have developed robots that can pick and place
objects in places dangerous for humans, a remote vehicle control and monitoring
system and an enterprise planning system for Thermal Power House Jamshoro
besides many other projects using advance technology. 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. The News

Sindh Edu dept seeks law dept's advice for control of edu boards
Karachi: The Sindh Education Department has sought advice from the Sindh Law Department to finalise a draft
bill seeking control of the provincial education boards from the Sindh governor,
it was learnt on Tuesday. "The bill will be re-submitted to the
Sindh Assembly Secretariat so that it can be included in the agenda of the house
before the start of next assembly session," said education department
officials. Earlier, a bill was passed by the Sindh Assembly where the
majority voted in favour of transferring control of six education boards to the
Sindh Education Department. However, the Sindh governor sent the bill back to
the provincial law department saying that there were loopholes in the bill.
The boards which the Sindh Education Department is seeking control of
include Boards of Secondary and Intermediate Education in Karachi, Board of
Intermediate and Secondary Education Hyderabad, Board of Intermediate and
Secondary Education Mirpurkhas, Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education
Larkana, and the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Sukkur.
The officials said that the department was working to re-draft the bill
in coordination with the law department. "The objections on the bill will be
removed and then sent again to the assembly for approval. As soon as the bill is
approved the control of boards will be automatically transferred to the Sindh
Education Department." Daily Times
