Introduction and webinar
The webinar started at 11:00 am and lasted up to 12:00 pm. The speaker Dr.L.Nirmala Devi madam started the webinar after a welcome by the IEEE Signal Processing society chapter chair. Around 204 students registered themselves for this program. The program started by defining sensors and networks.
A brief description of wireless networks, the difference between wireless networks, and adapt networks is explained. Students are taught about sensor node components, factors influencing sensor network design, sensor networks communication architecture, use of sensors, and sensor networks simulators are explained. Applications are explained in detail using real-time examples. The program ended with a question and answer session and a thank you note to the respected speaker. The session was informative, providing basic knowledge to students.
By the end of the seminar, students gained a basic knowledge of sensors and wireless networks and their applications in daily life. Students found this program informative, interesting, and highly beneficial.
