Abstract: A fully automated driving system allows an autonomous vehicle to adapt to external conditions that a human driver would typically handle. Using deep learning (DL), machine learning (ML), computer vision (CV), and convolutional neural networks (CNN), a self-driving automobile will be developed in this study by modeling the design of a car body and the implementation of various sensors on the car chassis in order to automatically run the cars. In addition, the car will undergo real-time obstetrical on the roads and self-training in order to learn itself appropriately. In contrast, the fundamental principles of artificial intelligence and their relationship to the autonomous car are examined.

Abstract: As for the case with many other emerging industries, certain shortage of water causes mechanical devices to shut down. In addition to that, some instruments need a controlled water supply to run efficiently. On the other hand, many SMEs suffer from unnecessary power consumption, which can be controlled by a SCADA system. In a country like Bangladesh, where most of the labor is uneducated, it is essential to have a dominance of computers to command for machinery remotely. In this study, A PI controller-based water supply System is designed using a programming logic controller (Siemens s7-1200), HMI (Siemens KTP basic 400), and factory IO 3D environment. The priority-based SCADA System has been introduced for the SMEs (Small and medium Enterprises) using the ladder logic, which will be useful for controlled power consumption.

Abstract: Lung damages, which is the leading cause of cancer and Covid-19 related death worldwide, can be better treated, and patients' chances of survival increased with early detection and diagnosis. PET (positron emission tomography), cone beam CT, Low dose helical CT, are advanced lung imaging techniques that allow for early diagnosis of smaller pulmonary nodules than normal chest radiography, but with ionizing radiation effect and being costly. In the field of imaging technology, microwave imaging has long been researched in the field of breast and brain. This study presents a review, conducts a feasibility study, and validates the concept of imaging the lungs in a similar manner to the breast and brain. The analysis includes designing a 3D human lung model, microwaves' various elements and factors inspection through the human body using holographic near field imaging, and image processing to estimate the percentage of lung damage. The safety and ionization exposure were also taken into consideration during the overall experiment. The use of microwave energy in various lung diseases is examined, and the basis for fluid detection utilizing microwave water content accumulation is also addressed compared to normal tissues.

Abstract: In this study, a low-cost industrial SCADA system has been presented and being developed for SMEs (small and medium companies). As is the case with many other emerging economies, such as Bangladesh, several SMEs contribute to the country's economy. Commercial SCADA systems, which are available in the market, are costly to set up and maintain for smaller companies. Also, the controlling and data acquisition interface of the loads through software has to be developed, which is also costly. As a result, keeping the cost-cut of the small companies in mind, those SCADA systems cannot be used in general. So, a low-cost SCADA system prototype has been designed for SMEs. In this paper, two microcontrollers have been used for faster data acquisition and better performance for logic switching of loads by minimizing the switching delay.

Abstract: This paper’s primary objective was to raise the competency of manufacturing agricultural grains, hence reducing the food scarcity in Bangladesh and saving labor, time, and money. This study begins with the design of the robot’s (Versatile Delta Track System) driver wheel, thresher, and cutter for crop cutting. Second, the entire body of the robot is designed, and all its components are integrated before the final prototype is simulated in Webots simulator. Finally, a real-world environment and adornment system is constructed to meet all of its objectives without human intervention. Most of crop cutting and thresher are manually driven which needs more time and work. But our proposed system introduced the automated thresher and crop cutting using the image processing techniques which is powered by PV cells.

Abstract: Renewable energy sources are the power of the present. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuel burning considerably contribute to global warming. The plan is to generate power with vertical axis wind turbines that will be coupled to a smart microgrid system. This system will transfer solar and wind energy into electrical energy utilizing solar panels and wind turbines. An Arduino UNO will supply all data from the solar panel and wind turbine. The system will be linked to an intelligent microgrid, which will allow for continuous power delivery. If the fault detector detects a problem with the system, SMS messages will be delivered via a GSM modem. This technology will make power generation and delivery easier. MATLAB/SIMULINK will be used to construct and test this system. In addition, a power monitoring system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) is implemented and utilized to collect and analyze data on electrical characteristics such as voltage, current, active power, and load energy usage. The Internet of Things (IoT) application ‘Thing Speak’ is used to collect real-time electrical data from users. Under the SG paradigm, consumers and utilities may utilize this information to better regulate use and minimize bills.   

Abstract: Providing space for both power plants and agriculture can be a significant difficulty for densely populated nations with limited land. In this paper, transparent photovoltaic (PV) panels are utilized to construct a solar power plant that can simultaneously produce electricity to the national grid and serve as land for agriculture, as sunlight can penetrate through transparent PV panels. This will allow the system to generate electricity in frames land without harming the agriculture. In addition to enhancing agricultural output, agro-photovoltaic adds to the provision of off-grid power in developing and rural regions. For enhancing the protection of the system Directional Over current relay (DOCR) is used for analyzing the faults. To connect the power plant in the load, the hardware specifications of transparent PV panels, boost converters, inverters, and transformers is reviewed in depth.
