Title of Talk: Industrial Talk about Introduction to Data Visualization 
Speaker: Mr Isma Redha from iCEP
Date: 23rd December 2021
Time: 09:00 to 10:30
Venue: Webex

  Based on the exciting talk by Mr Isma Redha from iCEP, I had gained the information, deeper understanding and further knowledge on the data visualisation and Microsoft Power BI. As a foundation knowledge before using Microsoft Power BI, the speaker introduces data visualisation, such as the several types of data, data relationships, and chart types that we should know. Other than that, I learned the basic skills on using Microsoft Power BI that I can use to connect our data in the reporting or presenting. Furthermore, the talk also makes me realise the data visualisation trends with all their benefits. It makes the complex understanding and detailed data more familiar and convenient to most people with greater accessibility, organisation, and visibility. In conclusion, I sincerely hope that the data visualisation and Microsoft Power BI can be popularised to most people nowadays to notice the charm of technology development impact our lives.

Title of Talk: Industrial Talk about 5G and Wifi 6
Speaker: Mr Nicholas Yong from Huawei 
Date: 2nd December 2021
Time: 09:00 to 10:30
Venue: Webex

  I gained a clear picture of how far 5G and Wi-Fi 6 technologies will develop in the future due to Mr Nicholas Yong's informative presentation. I was motivated that 5G will be a game-changer for all humans in virtual reality development and advancement (VR). As I know, virtual reality is a game-changer in the modern era due to the immersive and three-dimensional experience it provides. Thus, VR is critical in the development of the metaverse concept. 5G can help virtual reality users avoid motion sickness due to the low and unstable latency, as low as 20 milliseconds. 5G will enable high-speed and Retina-quality virtual reality experiences with up to 5037x5707 pixel resolution. For full-view panoramic video mosaics, six angles will be available.

  To summarise, I hope that 5G will achieve global coverage, particularly in rural areas, and eventually permeate every aspect of our lives. 5G will significantly improve the convenience and practicality of human life. Thus, people can use VR to enter the unknown world of the metaverse and explore the unknown.

Title of Talk: Industrial Talk about Smart Campus, The Journey starts here
Speaker: Mr. Goh Bih Der from Commscope
Date: 29th November 2021
Time: 15:00 to 16:30
Venue: Webex

  Based on the valuable talk by Mr Goh Bih Der from Commscope on 29th November 2021, I have found out that the presence of network infrastructure is becoming more and more crucial. When people talk about network infrastructure, the smart campus always comes to my students' minds. This talk motivated me to how smart campus innovation will help human life in education.

  Technology plays a vital role in human life in this rapid development information age, including campus students. The concept of a smart campus will provide smart living, smart learning, and smart security. First and foremost, a smart campus can enhance campus security and safety with the help of IoT devices such as smart sensors, smart locks, and other equipment. Other than that, everything on the campus can work automatically, like smart lighting to reduce operational costs. Furthermore, students can access their study materials anywhere with the digital portals and better learning experiences with technology such as Internet Protocol television (IPTV).

  In sum, the innovation of smart campuses provides more convenient, safe and cost-saving learning and living in-campus experiences to the student and other people. I believe that this innovation will be applied sooner to most universities or college campuses.

Title of Talk: Industrial Talk about Current Trend of Augmented Reality (AR) in Industry
Speaker: Dr Ruzimi Mohamed from OZEL Sdn Bhd
Date: 18th November 2021
Time: 09:00 to 10:30
Venue: Webex

  From the valuable talk by Dr. Ruzimi Mohamed on 18th November 2021, I learned that augmented reality plays a significant role in the evolution of Industrial Revolution 4.0 (IR4.0) and the further development of human life. Augmented reality is predicted to significantly impact several aspects of human life, especially the creation of metaverse. As I know, the chief executive officer of Meta company, Mark Zuckerberg, tries hard to make a metaverse. Thus, the metaverse is a virtual-reality space combining augmented reality, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, 5G networks and other technologies. Therefore, humans can experience everything in the metaverse, including education, social, and entertainment. In sum, I believe that augmented reality will be developing quickly to implement all the use cases of augmented reality into human life. 

Title of Talk: Industrial Talk about Amazon Web Service (AWS) & Cloud Computing
Speaker: Dr Qusay Al-Maatouk from Asia Pacific University (APU)
Date:  15th November 2021
Time: 15:00 to 16:30
Venue: Webex

  Based on the impressive talk by Dr. Qusay Al-Maatouk from Asia Pacific University on 15th November 2021, there are some critical advantages of cloud computing. The advantages of cloud computing are shown in several aspects, such as education, entertainment, and not limited to business. In education, cloud computing can enhance students experience in online studies, especially in the pandemic. For example, it enables accession to learn materials in just minutes. The service is lower costs affordable by most colleges, schools, and universities. Cloud computing security such as AWS ensures that students' privacy or colleges and schools are protected. With cloud computing, we believe can boost the development of humans, especially students.

Title of Talk: Industrial Talk about Technology & Information System and Fourth Industrial Revolution
Speaker: Ms Sarah Khadijah Taylor from Digital Forensics Department, CyberSecurity Malaysia
Date: 2nd November 2021
Time: 15:00 to 16:30 
Venue: Webex

  I gained some notable information from the industrial talk that enabling technologies will help human life in various aspects. The most crucial element is the changes in the criminal. With the development of enabling technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), people can utilise the functions of AI in facial recognition to identify the criminal suspect. Other than that, enabling technology like cybersecurity also assists the investigation of criminal cases. For example, Malaysia has a digital forensic service called CyberCSI that helps law enforcement seize evidence and collect data from the crime scene. Then, they will extract the data and analyse it to export into a report then present it to the court.

  At last, I can know how vital enabling technologies will affect our human life. Therefore, people should work hard to ensure the national policy will be completed on time. At the time, Malaysia was able to step into the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0.

Title of Talk: Industrial Talk about Technology & Information System and Fourth Industrial Revolution
Speaker: Mr. Nazri Edham from Telekom Malaysia Berhad
Date: 1st November 2021
Time: 15:00 to 16:30
Venue: Webex

  Based on the industrial talk, I succeeded in discovering that the innovation of smart cities helps humans in various aspects. The most significant element is the changes in our daily life. As I learned from the informative talk, the innovation of smart cities provides features such as Smart Fleet helps us real-time track the operation of the logistics, such as our parcel delivery status. Other than that, this concept enhanced the current water systems by replacing the Smart Water Integrated Management System (SWIMS) that helps us reduce water wastage in people daily lives. Besides, a Smart Services feature provided in the Smart City is designed and developed based on citizens' needs. Finally, it showed the importance of the innovation of smart cities that could impact our daily lives. We should always work hard together to support and develop IR4.0.
