EMC 311 MECHATRONICS: PROJECT EVALUATION DAY ON 9TH JULY 2024

Assalamualaikum and hi everyone Time seems to slip away when you're knee-deep in excitement. It's not that the clock ticks faster, but you're so engrossed that hours feel like minutes. Can you believe it? It feels like just yesterday that the semester kicked off with so much promise. We've hit Week 16—the final stretch for undergraduate students at USM this semester. For those in the EMC 311 Mechatronics course, this week was all about the ultimate showdown: the evaluation of their mobile robot projects, which make up a cool 10% of their total grade. Picture this: robots zipping around, tackling tasks, detecting obstacles, and following lines like tiny mechanical superheroes. The project isn't just about grades; it's a chance for students to flex their mechanical, programming, and problem-solving muscles in a hands-on, team-driven environment. Since day one, these future tech wizards have been split into 40 groups, working week by week to piece together their ro...

THE LADYBUG ROBOTICS WORKSHOP FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN MELAKA (16TH FEBRUARY 2023)

Assalamualaikum and hello readers 😊 The Faculty of Manufacturing Engineering, UTeM was really honored to welcome a group of high school students and teachers here recently under "The Ladybug Workshop Program". We were the official hosts together with Jabatan Pendidikan Negeri Melaka and RoboForce Enterprise (a robotics-based company in Melaka). More than 20 schools turned up and the auditorium was packed and lively with the presence of the excited participants. Overall it was loads of fun as I was given the honor to conduct a sharing session about introduction to robots, my research experience and facilities available in UTeM for students who wish to pursue a career as a manufacturing engineer.
