Introduction to PID Controller
Abstract:
A PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller is one of the most fundamental and widely used components in control systems. It continuously calculates an error value and applies corrections to bring the system to the desired state. From balancing robots to cruise control in vehicles, PID controllers are everywhere. In this session, we will explore the basic structure of a PID controller, understand the role of each term, and discuss its practical applications in real-world systems. This talk aims to provide a beginner-friendly overview of how PID control works and why it's so effective in both simple and complex automation tasks.
Time: 04:50 PM - 06:00 PM
Intro to Control System
Abstract:
A control system governs and directs the behaviour of devices or processes through control loops. Its scope ranges from a residential thermostat regulating a fan to complex industrial systems that monitor and control machinery and large‑scale processes. In this session, we will be looking into the overview of what is control system is and its potential applications.
Time: 04:50 PM - 06:00 PM
Intro to Ngnix
Abstract:
Nginx is an open-source web server software known for its high performance and efficiency. It is used on websites to handle server load and as a reverse proxy. In this session, we will cover how Nginx works.
Time: 04:50 PM - 06:00 PM
Intro to bash
Abstract:
Bash (Bourne Again SHell) is a widely-used Unix shell and command language that enables efficient interaction with the operating system through scripting and command-line interfaces. It allows users to automate tasks, manage files and processes, and execute system commands seamlessly. Bash provides a rich set of features for scripting and automation, including file manipulation, process control, text processing, and system integration, making it a foundational tool for developers, system administrators, and power users across a wide range of environments.
Time: 04:50 PM - 06:00 PM
FPGA for beginners
Abstract:
This beginner-friendly tech talk introduces Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) — reconfigurable chips used in applications ranging from robotics to AI. You'll learn what FPGAs are, how they work, and how they differ from traditional processors and microcontrollers. We'll cover key concepts like logic blocks, hardware description languages (HDL), and explore simple HDL examples.
