Friendly Visit from the Faculty of Science and Information Technology, Universiti Teknologi Petronas (2 April 2014)

It has been a while since our humble HuRoBs lab receive any formal visitors. We were really excited to receive a team of students to our lab in UiTM on 2nd April 2014.

The team was lead by their lecturer, Puan Norshuhani Zamin who is a lecturer from the Department of Computer and Information Sciences, Faculty of Science and Information Technology, Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS. 

As host, the people at HuRoBs lab had prepared a series of presentations for our visitors to show them our current research progress and activities. HuRoBs official NAO programmer, Mr Azfar Miskam had also prepared some nice presentations and demo of NAO's dance movements, wireless control using the Android app and also a guessing game with NAO that utilizes 2-way communication.

The students from UTP looked like they had enjoyable time with the HuRoBs team. Really hope that they did!

Enjoy the pictures.

What is a hooding ceremony?

This term always come to my attention and 'pops out' during the UiTM convocation ceremony. Yesterday I saw a post on the hooding ceremony (again) when my other half was browsing through IPSis UiTM's FB page.
