Poster Designing Competition
On October 11, 2023, during the student week at COMSATS University Islamabad, the IEEE RAS CUI hosted a poster designing competition. The event ran from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. and brought together six creative minds to work on the theme "Smart Cities of the Future."
Rules for Poster Designing:
Participants were tasked with creating posters on the theme of "Smart Cities of the Future," envisioning urban environments enhanced by technology for sustainability and efficiency. The posters were required to be of 5 x 5 inches (480 x 480 px) dimensions and were to be completed
within a strict time frame of 1 hour and 10 minutes. Furthermore, each poster was mandated to include the line "Smart cities of the future" and the official logo of RAS.
Participants were granted the liberty to use internet resources and any design software at their disposal. They were also instructed to ensure the preservation of their source files, as they might be requested by the judges for verification purposes.
Main Objective:
The goal of the competition was clear: let participants showcase their creativity by designing posters that represent the future of cities enhanced by technology for sustainability and efficiency. It was all about thinking outside the box and communicating ideas visually.
Fair and Anonymous:
To ensure fairness, each participant received a unique code number to keep their work anonymous; hence, this added an element of excitement and mystery.
Judging Panel:
The competition was judged by a panel of experts, including Saadia Saeed and Maha Shahid, the former directors of the IEEE CUI Graphics team, and Fatima Waqar, the current director. They were there to evaluate and choose the best posters.
Race Against the Clock:
Participants had just 70 minutes to bring their creative visions to life. The next half-hour was for submitting their work and materials. The judges had a challenging job ahead.
Champions of Creativity:
When the votes were in, the excitement was palpable. Talha Khan's poster stood out, claiming the top spot, while Ayan Khattak secured second place. These posters truly represented the future of smart cities.
A Successful Celebration:
The event ended on a high note, with participants and the audience enjoying the creative energy. The essence of RAS's mission, providing a platform for volunteers to showcase their skills and interact, was well highlighted
