Agenda
The bus reached Ahmedabad at around 11 am and the students were provided with
refreshments to cheer up the upcoming visit.
At around 11:30 am the first session of General Introduction and the Briefing about
the company’s work was given by two of their Engineers. They asked some
interactive questions to the students about describing them in one word and also
made the students aware about the most important qualities each student as an
engineer in their professional career should have to be a good engineer.
One of the Engineers then explained various important aspects like the use of Flip-
Flops and Logic Gates. They explained the need of clock for a processor and how
clock can affect the performance of a processor.
Around 12:45 pm we had a lunch break where everyone was provided lunch in the
company’s mess itself. Everyone seemed to enjoy the food.
Around 2 pm a tour to their room of works was held where they had a setup of some
sample models and some videos regarding their work with some well-known
companies like Kroger, Safran, Rockwell and Collins, etc in the field of aerospace
and defence, home automation, IoT, ASIC, Medical devices, video surveillance and
much more.
They showed some interesting videos on how they make products for aeroplanes by
making smart engine health monitors, automating cockpit system, automatic cabin
system and etc. They showed us some projects they worked on in medical sector to
help the citizens suffering from common allergies by setting up the modules at
different public streets. They showed us automatic medical pill supplying machine
and a smart injector for patients who need a regular shot of medicine through
syringes.
They showed the students some smart surveillance systems the company has
developed like CCTV monitoring, finger print sensors, two-factor authentication
machines, three-factor authentication machines, bionic nerve print sensors and other
smart payment modules.
The company has also developed a lot of products for home automation out of which
some products like door alarm, automatic lock, safety alarms, etc were demonstrated
to the students. Then they showed different chipsets made by the company.
They showed the students very interesting project they did in the field of holograms
and showed them creation of 3-D objects and animations in space by using a fan.
The project was very interesting and innovative. One more interesting product that
was demonstrated to the students were smart glasses for bicyclers which could tell
the speed and many other important instructions to the rider just in front of the eyes
without blocking the view.
The last session of the tour the question and answer session took place at 2 pm where
students wonderfully asked many questions and cleared all their queries about the
