On January 28, 2018, the Rehabilitation and Employment Unit gave the first session of the spring break training camp entitled "Arduino from scratch to professionalism". The students learned Arduino, its applications and how to access advanced projects, which was useful for forth year project students in particular. The course was given by External Engineer Ali Akram Sa'eed and it included the following topics:
- An introduction to the world of electronics and the most important pieces that we will learn with an explanation of the beginning of the installation of the program and the most important problems that will face us. The explanation of the program was reinforced with the application of a simple example.
- Explanation of the most important features of the Arduino Board and the input and output ports with an introduction to programming language, beginning with basic commands.
- Use of PWM and how to deal with analogue and digital inputs and how to coordinate them at the same time.
- Explanation of the conditions, commands and important functions used in the programs, with an example for each command (if, if else, for, switch case, while, tone).
- The most important step in programming is learning to write a code that makes the controller perform several steps at the same time.
- Explaining the means of communication in a simplified way and applying projects on them including GSM Bluetooth, RF433, IR
- The fundamentals of Servo Stepper Motor and the introduction of advanced projects and how to update them to suit the needs of the workplace.
The duration of the course was 4 days, 3 hours per day. On the last day of the session, each student was asked to propose project ideas through what they have learned in the course. The ideas were excellent and useful in our scientific and practical life.
At the end of the training camp, Assistant Head of the Department for Administrative Affairs, Dr. Ahmed Ibraheem Abd Al-Kareem distributed certificates of participation to the lecturer and attendees.

A Masters Viva
On 4/1/2018, the postgraduate student "Mohammed Zuhair Mohammed Ali" was granted an M Sc. for his thesis:
"Robust Controller Design using State Derivative Feedback"
The examining committee consisted of:
- Azad Raheem Kareem (Chairman)
- Mohamed Jasim Mohamed (Member)
- Muna Hadi Salih (Member)
- Hazem Ibrahim Ali (Member & Supervisor)
In many mechanical systems, the accelerometers represent the main sensors of vibration. This means that the signals of states derivative are easier to obtain than the state signals. In this work, the design procedures of robust control using state feedback and state derivative feedback are presented. To show the effectiveness of the proposed controller, the active suspension system and mobile inverted pendulum system are considered.
A Masters Viva
On 28/12/2017, the postgraduate student "Zainab Khudhair Abbas" was granted an M Sc. in computers engineering for her thesis entitled:
"Designing a System for Human Object Image Recognition, Tracking, and Behavior Analysis"
The examining committee consisted of:
- Ashwaq Talib Hashim (Chairrman)
- Saffanah Haider Abbas (Member)
- Luma Issa Abdul-Kareem (Member)
- Laith Jasim Saud ( Member & Supervisor)
Object tracking is a main challenging issue in many important applications like computer vision, traffic monitoring, and surveillance. In this thesis, a human objects tracking software system is designed to track human objects in a sequence of video frames. The system involves three main consecutive parts (stages), object detection (extract the region of interest), object classification (recognize the object), and object tracking. That is beside some complementary stages.
