[Legacy Report] A Seminar on "Approach towards Engineering" by National Instruments, organized by IEEE UET Lahore
IEEE arranged a seminar on “An Approach towards Engineering: From Theory to Development”. The main purpose behind the seminar was to encourage students to figure out the inter-dependence and relations in a circuit.
The agenda set by the speakers was:
1. Importance of instrumentation and measurements
2. Data analysis and link between analogue and digital domain
3. Coverage from circuit design to communication and control design
4. Introduction to labView
The speakers also rightly emphasized upon the importance of theoretical knowledge as the success of any project depends upon the sound knowledge and understanding of its designer. Although graduate studies are often taken lightly by students, the speaker advised otherwise as this knowledge will certainly create a foundation for further advancement in one’s technical education.
Three basic steps towards any project are
1. Design and simulations
2. A prototype to verify the results
3. Actual hardware design of the project and integration of software and hardware.
Introduction of LabView software and its importance in ongoing projects especially those related to Space, Aerospace, control systems of mechanical structure e.g. cars, aircrafts and industrial automation was stressed upon.
At the end a demonstration of Inverted pendulum was given using myRIO, FPGA and labView software.
