Electronics engineering involves an intimate knowledge of the behaviour of electrons to develop components, devices, systems or equipment. There are many subfields such as biomedical engineering, power electronics, digital signal and image processing. In common with all of the courses within the Electronics course category, students in this field require a multi-disciplinary approach. The short courses in this category offer practical, industry focused technical content, that can be used straight away.
This manual covers the fundamentals of Digital Signal Processing (DSP), applying DSP technology to improve efficiency, analysing frequency of signals and the application of this knowledge, the correct application of design digital filters, analysing the performance of DSP systems, identifying the key issues in designing a DSP system and the specific features and capabilities of commercial DSP applications.

From microwave ovens to alarm systems to industrial PLC and DCS control systems, embedded controllers are controlling our world. The microcontrollers that are at the heart of these and many more devices are becoming easier and simpler to use. But when these devices fail the solution to the problem needs to be found and the repairs have to be done quickly. This manual will help the technician, engineer and even the most casual user understand the inter-workings of microcontrollers along with the most common problems and their solutions.

The aim of this manual is to help you identify, design, prevent and fix common EMI/EMC problems with a focus on earthing and shielding techniques. Learning how to fix earthing and shielding problems on the job can be very expensive and frustrating. Although it must be noted that most of the principles involved are simple, this manual will give you the tools to approach earthing and shielding issues in a logical and systematic way. This manual focuses on the issues of interest to you if you are working in design, operation or maintenance of analog or digital systems involving sensors, data acquisition, process control, cables, signal processing, programmable logic controllers, power distribution, high speed logic etc.

Grace Traeger is our intrepid Graphic Designer based in our Perth office. A few weeks ago she gave us chapter and verse on branding at the Engineering Institute of Technology. Despite my initial lack of enthusiasm, I thoroughly enjoyed the session. It also reminded me of a most unexpected, but rather wonderful discovery in the middle of the Western Cape last month.

In honor of International Museum Day, why not celebrate the museums that give visitors unrivaled access to everything we love about engineering? International Museum Day takes place on 18 May, and if you live in a city or town with a museum, why not find out if your local museum is running a promotion to give free entry on the day or presenting a talk about an exhibition? The day was started in 1977 by the International Council of Museums (ICOM) to draw attention to the impact of museums on individual and broader communities, and also the value they have socially and economically.

Population growth, global warming, and the advancement of technology have meant that Agriculture Automation is a needed and positive response to traditional agriculture. Artificial Intelligence (AI) allows for better monitoring of global crops and all-important data on what is available in terms of food resources and vital resources for the world, like water management. Photo by Luke Thornton on Unsplash Why Automate Agriculture? In the 2016 paper Automation in Agriculture: A Study the dawn of automation was explored.

When it comes to automation and bold headlines like ‘robots taking human jobs’ one thing is almost never mentioned – how humans are able to keep their jobs despite digitization. A big factor that allows humans to still outperform machines and automation is the application of soft skills. Robots have to compete with humans too Think of it almost like a professional competition, and just like humans have to face colleagues to climb the corporate ladder, so do robots. Continue reading How Not To Let Robots Steal Your Job at EIT | Engineering Institute of Technology.
A group of lecturers and students from the EIT Melbourne Campus Master of Engineering (Industrial Automation) program visited Elenium Automation in May. This visit showed the practical science of AI technologies and covered self-help automation at airports, and how these technologies are improving user experiences. Elenium Automation is an Australian AI success story, having entered the market with VYGR. The system is a touchless check-in biometric suite for passengers to control parts of their journey easily.
