Introduction to LabVIEW

Athul Prasad, Project Engineer at NCN Technologies, walked members through the LabVIEW ecosystem—front panel design, block diagrams, and VI prototyping for real-time automation.

Outcome: participants created their first virtual instrument and mapped applications for data acquisition and robotics.

• Collaboration with IEEE ComSoc Kerala Chapter as part of AKComSocSC
• Live demonstration of LabVIEW instrumentation workflows
• Contextualised use-cases spanning automation, robotics, and research labs

Application of Audio Signals – Alumni Interaction Session

An inspiring dialogue with alumnus Jishnu Menon, Automation Engineer at Apple, unpacking real-world audio signal applications powering Siri, Spatial Audio, and intelligent devices.

• Exclusive alumni mentoring and career insights
• Explored applied audio signal processing for consumer tech
• Interactive Q&A with 80+ engaged participants
• Guidance on research pathways and industry readiness

About the speaker: Jishnu Menon (B.Tech ECE, NSSCE 2014; MS, University of Massachusetts) previously advanced Alexa wake-word performance at Amazon Lab126 and now builds automation tooling for Siri and Spatial Audio at Apple.

“Technology begins where curiosity meets communication.” The webinar blended real-world engineering stories with actionable advice on building communication-tech careers.

Arduino Simulation using TinkerCAD

Participants explored virtual prototyping with TinkerCAD, mastering Arduino circuit simulation and rapid iteration workflows guided by Aravind A S (S5 ECE).

• Ideal for beginners and electronics enthusiasts

• 35+ participants collaborating across departments
• Hands-on mentorship and peer learning environment

Participants simulated, iterated, and showcased their builds—closing the evening with enthusiastic feedback on how the session strengthened electronics and programming confidence.

Machine Learning Foundations

A two-day primer co-hosted with IEEE EdSoc SBC NSSCE. Day 1 covered supervised learning theory; Day 2 delivered classifier modelling, logistic regression, and neural network labs.

Faculty mentors: Dr. Sruthy Manmadhan • Dr. Anuraj Mohan • Dr. Vijitha S.

Generative AI: Revolutionising the Communications Landscape

Dr. Anjana P Das, AI Specialist at Tata Elxsi, decoded transformer architectures, GANs, and diffusion models for network optimisation, customer engagement, and creative media pipelines.

The interactive format featured demos, live Q&A, and a concept quiz for knowledge reinforcement.

6G Unleashed: The Future of Wireless Communication

Dr. Ayappasamy, Research Engineer at Digital University Kerala, explored VLC, Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces, semantic communications, and THz spectrum as 6G enablers.

Highlights: comparative roadmap from 2G–6G and lab demonstrations of reflective surface optimisation.

SPECTRUM: Unveiling the Power of Radio Communication

Dr. Ghandhiraj R, Associate Professor at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, guided participants through WebSDR, GNU Radio, and flight radar exploration for modern RF analysis.

Attendees applied Fourier concepts, filtering techniques, and real-time signal visualisation.

Drone Craft: Build • Simulate • Deploy

In partnership with Aero Knotz Drone India Pvt. Ltd., participants assembled UAV kits, calibrated flight controllers, and analysed applications across agriculture, surveillance, and disaster response.

Deliverable: each student team completed a ready-to-fly prototype with mission planning insights.
