BTI trainees employ 4th industrial revolution technologies in "smart" projects
09-Jul-2019
Trainees from various training programs at BTI developed a number of “smart” training projects which employs technologies of the fourth industrial revolution and developed to facilitate service, productivity processes and operations at the workplace.
Director General Dr. Samah Al Ajjawi said that "amongst BTI continuous efforts to keep abreast with the latest trends and practices at the work place, locally and globally, the Institute encourages trainees to employ technologies of the 4th Industrial Revolution; developing various innovative projects such as the smart cities, automation of jobs using Robotics, and in three-dimensional (3D) printing projects”.
Amongst these projects are: the Cross Fire Technology Network Project (Smart lighting systems), and, the Smart Garden projects. The first project is developed by the trainee Yasser Ali Kathem, who uses technological methods to develop a smart lighting system that control lighting facilities in the workplace. On the other hand, Namra Awan and Mahnaz Hasan developed the "Smart Garden" project that provides a smart solution to facilitate the management of companies’ gardens facilities in an “automated” way that is more secure and that significantly reduces the expenses of maintaining these facilities.
The “Smart Office” project, developed by Hassan Ali Mohamed, includes a smart technology that makes smart decisions for offices and workplaces such as opening curtains, turning off lighting or changing color, with little or no human intervention at all.
On the other hand, Mohamed Salman developed the “Smart Home” project, which uses a smart electronic device that remotely control all electronic devices in the house, through an application installed on mobiles or via a website linked to the smart device, while Hawaraa Abbas developed a “Smart Coffee” machine that addresses the issue of frequent malfunction of coffee dispensers in the workplace and saves expenses of maintenance.
Trainees Abdullah Ali and Ali Habib developed a “Solar Powered Smart Automatic Irrigation System” based on a wireless sensors network technology (WSNT). The project provides energy, water and fertilizers and ensures that irrigation is organized without human intervention, which improves the quality and quantity of agricultural crops .
All the above projects employ technologies of the fourth industrial revolution that serve various production processes and operations adopting the Internet of Things (IoT) technology IoT; which is one of the fourth industrial revolution technologies that emphasizes the possibility of identifying products and machines connected through digital networks. This technology provides various opportunities for several industrial, services and production sectors to develop workplaces and facilitate operations.
