The CSE department has organized an “Humanitarian Drone Competition” as part of the course project for the “Computer Engineering Practicum” course..<\/p>

The motivation for this year\u2019s project is to show solidarity with people in Gaza. Unlike typical control circuits used in the drones, the students of the course were asked to design a control circuit for the drone with only passive electronic components and basic IC to control the motors of the drones. In order to achieve this, the students had to go through phases of idea description, schematic design, breadboard prototyping, and a final soldered prototype that has to have at least three functionalities that can assist the humanitarian mission.<\/p>

The winning drones were judged based on their design, number of functionalities incorporated in the design, A4 poster and a video montage of their work carried out during the project.<\/p>

The winners in the competition were:\u00a0<\/p>
