The event aimed to provide an engaging and educati onal experience for participants\, focusing on the principles and practica l aspects of transmitters\, receivers\, satellite image capturing\, and im age transmission.\n\nTasks:\n\n• Fox Hunt: The Fox Hunt activity provide d participants with an exciting challenge to locate a hidden receiver with in the faculty premises using a transmitter's indication. This demonstrate d the principles associated with transmitting and receiving. To encourage active participation\, a surprise reward was attached to the transmitter\, making the activity even more thrilling.\n\n• Satellite Image Capturing : Participants learned how to capture images from weather satellites using an antenna\, software-defined radio (SDR)\, and specialized software. The theoretical aspects of image data transmission as bit streams and pulses were covered\, along with techniques for extracting images from transmitte d bit streams using encoding and decoding methods.\n\n• Image Transmissi on via Computer and Mobile App: This task involved constructing a transmit ter and receiver to send and capture images. Participants were guided thro ugh the process of decoding images into binary bits\, which were then tran smitted using a dedicated transmitter. The images were received and displa yed using a mobile app\, providing insight into image transfer and capturi ng.\n\nAttendees: The event attracted numerous outsiders to the university \, including students\, professionals\, and technology enthusiasts and als o the undergraduates in the university who are eager to learn about the fa scinating world of telecommunication.\n\nThe event report successfully hig hlights the engaging tasks and learning experiences provided during the Op en Day. The tasks encompassed practical demonstrations and theoretical con cepts\, providing participants with valuable knowledge in the field of tel ecommunication. The IEEE Communications Society at the University of Perad eniya looks forward to hosting more such events in the future to continue fostering interest and understanding in this dynamic\n\nDepartment of Elec trical and Electronics Engineering\, University of Peradeniya\, Kandy\, Sr i Lanka\, Sri Lanka\, 20000 LOCATION:Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering\, University of Peradeniya\, Kandy\, Sri Lanka\, Sri Lanka\, 20000 ORGANIZER:ieeecomsocuop@gmail.com SEQUENCE:13 SUMMARY:Showcase by IEEE Communications Society\, on Open Day - 2023 at Uni versity of Peradeniya URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/368699 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>showcase at open day hosted by the IEEE Co mmunications Society at the University of Peradeniya at Electronic and Ele ctrical Department was a resounding success.
