Arduino Lecture Series


   Good , bad or indifferent. If you are investing in new technology, you are going to be left behind.

-Philip Green

               Technology has become essential in our Society. An average person comes across almost 15 technologies every day. Statistics can  support argument even further if one says that we are a techno savvy generation. From sixteen hundred centuries to recent times world has changed a lot. Technology not only affected our regular day life but to a certain extent it has changed the way we think. In recent time technology has revolutionized education. Online portals, interactive classrooms, 3-D presentation has made education a joy.  

                   It has become necessary fro students as well as for tutors to be aware of latest technological trends. One such trends was open source technology and community. A trend where , technology is outsourced to end users and their participation is encouraged. People from around the world participates and help to increase the intellectual database. One such open source trend is Arduino and  Arduino community.

                  Originally developed as an prototyping platform. Arduino has become cult popular among student fraternities. Arduino is an open-source physical computing platform designed to make experimenting with electronics more fun and intuitive. Over the years Arduino has been the brain of thousands of projects, from everyday objects to complex scientific instruments. A worldwide community of makers - students, hobbyists, artists, programmers, and professionals - has gathered around this open-source platform, their contributions have added up to an incredible amount of accessible knowledge that can be of great help to novices and experts alike.

Project Work GuideLines



                                   PROJECT WORK 



                     As per GTU guideline every students must go through final year Project. It is a mandatory procedure to complete the B.E. It offers an excellent  platform to showcase skills horned during B.E. for three years. Students of final year  require good technical knowledge ,  presentation skills to perform well and score better in their final year. Project work also has good weightage in terms of credits. If you perform poor it will definitely affect your over all SPI and eventually CPI. As it can also be seen from below table.

                             Project work and especially selecting the project is tricky business. Students will have to be smart in selecting the project. They should not  over commit for any project and eventually under perform or avoid selecting the project which are way under their capability. Along with all the skills , students will have to a proper time management as G.T.U. expects a lot of periodic work online.  

                                It is observed that students have many difficulties in carrying out various work related to Final year project. Students can follow the below mentioned link in order to get acquainted with entire procedure.
