Learning technology

SIG Projects, The 7th Engineering Inno Show /

As Asian students, we’ve long tolerated the traditional education experience. Rote learning, Disorientation, Societal Pressure, we have been through it all. The long-term consequence is that students become dependent on extrinsic factors (social or parental pressure) and lose sight of what they truly enjoy studying.

LEAN Platform – an online study ecosystem where students can livestream their learning sessions solo or with others and earn tokens for their study time. These tokens can be used to redeem rewards from entertainment brands (fun) or youth education organisations (growth). LEAN incentivizes students’ learning with rewards by brands that can post for free to attract customers. We address the missing link between what students like and the learning journey. Furthermore, we connect with educational institutions to provide growth rewards that foster self-directed learning.

Fully Controllable Underwater Robotic Fish by BREED HKU @ 7th Inno Show

Mechanical Engineering, SIG Projects, The 7th Engineering Inno Show /

Our robotic fish swimming across the harbour from Central to TST will prove its applicability in seawater.
Along with its prior speed record and additional features, it is beneficial to society because its biomimicry nature doesn’t interfere with marine life like other technology automation such as boats or submarines.
Compared to the previous model, it is much more energy efficient, less polluting, constructed with less material, and thus environmentally friendly.

HKU Unmanned Aerial System Team @ 7th Inno Show

Mechanical Engineering, The 7th Engineering Inno Show /

HKU UAS is an Unmanned Aerial Systems team dedicated to forming a community of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) enthusiasts and its associated systems, consisting of two technical teams: Mechanical Team and Computer Science Team. The team aims to join the AUVSI SUAS international competition, situated in Maryland, U.S.A. The competition requires the team to design a UAS capable of Autonomous Flight, Obstacle Avoidance, Object Detection, Classification and Localization, Airdrop and Package Delivery.

PERfECT Viral Sewage Monitoring System @ 7th Inno Show

Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The 7th Engineering Inno Show /

Sewage monitoring is an effective preventive measure to detect possible outbreaks early due to viral sheds in sewage systems. However, the current sewage monitoring system is labour-intensive, time-consuming, and lacks scalability. Here, we present our PERfECT viral sewage monitoring system, which is scalable, digital, and can detect viral presence in real time.

PERfECT is a personalized electronic reader for electrochemical transistors that detects viruses when a DNA aptamer is attached to its sensor. Once the virus is detected, the data will be uploaded to the cloud and alert authorities. PERfECT viral detection is much faster than PCR and is reusable. With PERfECT being customisable, it can also monitor the disease progression of different viruses.

Alertio – danger alert app for the deaf

Computer Science, The 7th Engineering Inno Show /

Alertio is a danger alert app for deaf people. It utilizes the state-of-the-art Machine learning model to detect potential danger sounds. The sounds that we aim to detect include car alarms, bicycle rings, fire alarms, etc. Once the potential danger sound is identified, our app will send an alert to the user through intense vibration of the device as well as turning the app background into eye-catching light red color.

IMSE 2121 Engineering Training

Industrial and Manufacturing Systems Engineering, The 7th Engineering Inno Show /

The main aim of this training course is to equip students with practical experience and
a general exposure to (i) manufacturing processes, (ii) product design, and (iii) system
development.
The training course includes a number of modules, covering areas such as design
practice, manufacturing technology, measurement, quality control, assembly
technology, inspection, troubleshooting, testing, and modification, health and safety,
and environmental issues.
These modules are designed to motivate students to use creative thinking in the
projects, which help them become innovative and open-minded in solving
engineering problems.

Kamphor – An Online Review Platform

Computer Science, The 7th Engineering Inno Show /

In the current digital age digital advertising is becoming one the largest industries outside of manufacturing and production. Digital advertisement usually take many forms ranging from social media AD’s to celebrity endorsements. One of the main platform for advertisement, especially for the service industry, is online reviews.

Platforms such as Yelp and Google Reviews are major players in the online review industry, and as with all industries, businesses are willing to pay money for better privileges. Unfortunately, this also translates to situations where online reviews are artificially inflated by the platform or by AstroTurf companies.

The objective of this project is to create a proof of concept project which implements a “web-of-trust” system to allow reviews to be verified for authenticity. The project will also implement a time decay system to ensure reviews are a reflection of the most recent development rather than outdated events.
