Sensors and their Applications
Sensors are a very essential component of any electronics project. In this world of increased automation, the knowledge about sensors is very crucial. In this regard, the IEEE BIT SB conducted a 3-day hands-on workshop about – “Sensors and their applications”.
The speaker Dr. Kendaganna Swamy S along with his associate Dr.Rajshree P successfully educated the students about the various basic and essential sensors and their usage with the help on an Arduino Uno circuit board.
DAY-1:
The beginning of the workshop was marked by an inaugural function in the presence of the principle, vice principle, HODs of department of ECE and VDT and IEEE BIT SB Counselor.
Initially the participants were introduced to the simulation method of using the Arduino with the help of TinkerCad website. In the second session they were introduced to the basic components involved in the usage of the Arduino Uno, namely: data cables, jumper wired, bread boards and so on. They were also taught about the various parts of an Arduino.
The participants constructed a few basic circuits involving LEDs.
DAY-2:
The participants were introduced to Ultrasonic sensors, IR sensors, buzzers and servo motors. They were also introduced to the applications. Ultrasonic sensors are mostly used outdoors and IR sensors are used indoors.
They were also introduced to how a combination of the sensors and servo motors are used in automatic dustbins, how IR sensors are used for automatic hand dryers and many more.
They were also introduced to LCD displays.
DAY-3:
On the last day of the workshop, participants were introduced to more sensors like smoke sensors, door sensors and so on. They were further educated about servo modules and DC motors.
The speaker also informed the students about further internship opportunities and also gave a foray into the journey of a project until it becomes a product.
The event was successfully concluded with a valedictory function in the presence of vice principle, HODs of department of ECE and VDT and IEEE BIT SB Counselor.
The speaker was also awarded with a token of appreciation.
