The “International Conference on Embedded, Power systems, Control and Communication (ICEPC2-2019)” was organized by Dept. of Electronics & Communication Engineering, Vemana Institute of Technology, Bengaluru, Karnataka on 26th - 27th July, 2019.
The purpose of this conference was to discuss applications and development in the area of “Embedded, Power systems, Control and Communication” which would give international values to Educational Institutes and Researchers.
The International Conference attracted over 75 submissions. Through rigorous peer reviews, 33 high quality papers were recommended by the Committee. The conference aptly focuses on the tools and techniques for the developments on current technology. The conference was inaugurated by KRJS President Sri H. N. Vijayaraghava Reddy, the chief guest Dr Raju G. Former scientist ISRO and Dr Vijayasimha Reddy B.G, Principal, Vemana IT. During the two days of the conference five keynote addresses were given by experts.
Workshops Conducted:
Three days workshop on MSP 430 was organized from 6th to 8th September. It motivated the students to learn the basics of MSP 430 F 5529 (microcontroller). It helped the students to understand how a microcontroller could control real-time hardware components and programming was taught to them. Students learnt to configure the MSP 430 launch pad to toggle on-board LED, and also configure ADC 12 to implement single channel sampling.
The department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) has organized a project exhibition on 08/06/2019. Students have exhibited the academic projects carried out during their final year course. In total 35 groups have participated and presented their work through posters. The projects are jointly evaluated by two experts: Sri K. Devaraj, Director, MSME Development Institute, Bangalore and Dr. A. Ramachandran, Professor, Dept. of ECE, Vemana Institute of Technology. The two best projects were awarded.
