REFLECTION

EII is one of the platforms that gather and share technology trends, new development and research result in the engineering area.  We are able to share and learn from each other through the program.  It gives us a new horizon since it is our first activity in UTM. I am able to enhance my knowledge and develop creative and critical thinking skills.

INNOVATE JOHOR (IJ)

INNOVATE JOHOR

Innovate Johor is an annual public event lead by UTM Research Management Center (RMC) under the supervision of the UTM Deputy Vice-Chancellor of Reseach and Innovation (DVCRI). This event is about celebrating the diversity of research innovation within Johor especially those that are from UTM itself.

INDUSTRIAL VISIT MAGICX

MAGICX

Media and Game Innovation Centre of Excellence (MaGICX) is a strategic cooperation between Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) and Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) to support and promote the development and ecosystem of creative industry that focuses on gamification and enrichment of digital content.

 

ATTRACTIVE INNOVATION

3D PRINTING
  • common material uses for object printed is Polylactic Acid (PLA) filament
  • no need to build a dedicated conveyor belt production line, saving time and money

DRIVING SIMULATION

  • designed in a collaborative simulation with which is consisted of two computers connected over a Local Area Network (LAN) and interact in real-time to share the simulation information
  • used to train and test novice drivers in all the skills required to pass a driver’s license road test as well as hazard perception and crash risk mitigation

KINECTIVE INTERACTIVE WALL

  • allows the user to use the computer without the need for mouse and keyboard
  • an interactive wall powered by the Microsoft Kinect system

DEMO ON VIRTUAL REALITY OF OCULUS QUEST

  • a computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical
  • Oculus Quest is a standalone, mobile, powerful VR headset with two hand controllers and six degrees of freedom

AUGMENTED REALITY (AR)

  • Ameen Daily Prayer, wARna
  • provides an interactive learning environment to children

REFLECTION

The industrial visit was quite fun and interesting. The underdeveloped projects we get to tested were actually working, serving its purposes, although it is not near perfection. Through the visit, we are all eager to improve our soft skills in designing and programming. Overall, the industrial visit to MAGICX was quite insightful and hope to hear its progress in the future.

 

 

INDUSTRIAL VISIT TO PSZ

PSZ

On Sunday, 20th October 2019, an industrial visit to Information Technology Gallery at Gallerium, Perpustakaan Sultanah Zanariah, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia,81310 Johor Bahru. This industrial visited to know the history of computers and its components and also the transformation of computers in PSZ.

PC ASSEMBLE

PC ASSEMBLE

PC ASSEMBLE.jpg

PC assemble is an activity carried out on 17th September 2019 at Makmal Inovasi Perisian, Level 3, N28(School of Computing). It was a wonderful experience for me to study the components in the PC, such as RAM, power supply, motherboard and hard disk. 

DESIGN THINKING (PRIVACY AND SECURITY)

DESIGN THINKING

Design Thinking is an iterative process in which we seek to understand the user, challenge assumptions, and redefine problems in an attempt to identify alternative strategies and solutions that might not be instantly apparent with our initial level of understanding.

PROTOTYPE

  POOGLE.jpg

PROS CONS
  • Ad-free
  • Faster loading time
  • Does not take up RAM
  • The search algorithm is not saved
  • Fully customizable to user for a unique look
  • It is not free
  • Can only browse secured websites

 

REFLECTION

Design Thinking made us want to share the ideas we learned. It tested how we could apply all the information to improve our problem-solving processes. Throughout the activity, I know that communication skill is important for each member to exchange ideas for the improvement of design and constructing methods easily .
