Around 30 people at tended the event\, two thirds of which were students.\n\nThe event began w ith a welcome speech by Dr. Shakowat Zaman Sarker\, Associate Professor an d Chairman\, Department Of EEE. This was followed by inspirational remarks from Prof. Dr. Mijanur Rahaman\, Professor and Chairman\, Department of C SE\, who highlighted the importance of modern robotics and artificial inte lligence in the context of Bangladesh and the significance of this kind of seminars.\n\nThe seminar was then conducted by the keynote speaker\, Dr. Lamia Iftekhar\, Associate Professor\, Department of ECE\, North South Uni versity and\, Vice Chair (Technical) of Women In Engineering Affinity Grou p\, IEEE Bangladesh Section. The talk started on familiar grounds of robot ics which the students are usually exposed to and quickly brought in conce pts of networks and systems. The audience were introduced to fundamentals of multirobot systems and cooperative control with real-life examples as w ell IEEE resources for further exploration on the topic.\n\nAfter the talk \, a Q&A session and a quiz competition was organized. The student body pa rticipated heartily and several new questions had to be designed on spot t o break up ties in the competition. Different types of robotics kit\, modu les and books were distributed as awards among nine participants who got h ighest marks in the quiz competition.\n\nThe end of the event was initiate d by Md.
