7 projects by College of Engineering students impress visitors to the 41st Buraydah Spring Festival

The projects of the students of the College of Engineering displayed at the university's pavilion at the "Buraydah Spring Festival 41" won the admiration of visitors to the festival, as they contained a number of diverse ideas and innovations, as visitors expressed their admiration for the abilities, skills and creativity of the students who came up with these ideas and implemented such innovations.

The College of Engineering's corner contained several projects, including the "Bus" project, which is a protection system for students in case one of them stays inside the "bus", by giving an alarm to the bus driver about the remaining number of students through an electronic chip carried by the student that records his entry and exit, and can be linked with an application to determine the coordinates of the location of the student and his location, in addition to a second project entitled "Smart Glove", which consists of giving orders by finger movement to perform certain tasks through the application on the smartphone and requesting help in case of emergency for people with special needs.

The engineering students also presented a third project entitled "The Pool", whose idea is to close the pool when not in use to protect children from falling into it, and to facilitate the cleaning process of large-sized waste by linking it with a secret number for opening and closing, in addition to the fourth project, which is a "3D printing" that enables the printing of any object of various sizes and details after designing it on Solid Work, either for use or to help explain it.

The students presented a fifth project on the Slump Test, a test that measures the consistency of concrete after mixing and before pouring it on site and is used to know the amount of water by measuring the amount of drop in height, as well as the sixth project came with the idea of the "Schmidt hammer test" device (Schmidt hammer). It is a device for measuring the elastic properties or strength of concrete, especially surface hardness and resistance to penetration, while the seventh and final project is "solar energy" to track the light source by placing sensors on the ends of the solar panel to achieve the highest utilization of light during daylight hours.
