Khalifa students display 35 innovations as part of their graduation projects

Yesterday, Khalifa University organized an exhibition of student innovations, to display 35 graduation projects for university students from various engineering specializations, created and implemented by 138 male and female students, which included innovations in the fields of aviation and medical services, assistance to people with special needs, nuclear reactor security, and drones.

In detail, the Director of Khalifa University, Dr. Arif Sultan Al Hammadi, confirmed that the total projects presented by the youth amounted to 35 projects, 80% of which were ready and applicable, and that the student projects produced stem from the local environment, its needs and ambitions, and are related to aviation technology, mechanics, civil engineering, etc., pointing to the concept of a team. Single work is the basis for the success of these ideas.

He said: What distinguishes these projects is that they stem from the needs of the state, which is the added value achieved by local universities, such as Khalifa University, through graduate studies, master’s, doctoral, and bachelor’s programs as well. These innovations also create solutions to the problems existing in the country.

Al-Hammadi explained that the projects presented by the students are ready for implementation, as Khalifa University, through the Khalifa Innovation Center, will adopt these ideas, in addition to many entities supporting the ideas, as the student projects contain all the ideas, competencies and brilliant minds needed by national companies that companies can need and adopt. To implement these projects on the ground.

The students, Abdul Qader Al-Kaf, Hamad Al Ali, Saleh Sakher Saif, and Afra Al-Jabri, invented an aircraft wing production line for the Strata Factory. It saves about 10 million dirhams annually in operational costs, is completely computer-controlled, reduces about 30% of production time, and does not require warehouses. Storage during production stages.

Meanwhile, students Abdullah Al Zaabi, Mohammed Al Nuaimi, and Fahd Al Hafiti created a device to determine the type and speed of sand, which can be used in the process of constructing buildings on main streets, planning roads, metro lines, and trains, to avoid accumulation of sand resulting from wind movement, and to determine the quality and sizes of sand barriers.

Meanwhile, the students, Fahd Al-Shaibani, Yousef Abdul-Raouf, and Abdul-Rahman Yousef, designed a medical exercise device to help patients with limb paralysis. It performs exercises to mobilize the hands and joints, without the need for a physical therapist, and is characterized by ease of movement and transportation anywhere.

Seven citizen students, Omran Al-Shamsi, Fahd Al-Shaer, Hamad Al-Shaer, Abdulaziz Al-Khadim, Amira Al-Tamimi, and Bodour Al-Yamhi, from the Department of Nuclear Mechanical Engineering, created an underwater welding robot to reduce the risks facing welding engineers in oil companies while repairing marine production and transportation lines. It is moved and controlled from a boat above the surface of the sea, and through cameras installed in it, it photographs the fault and the location of the leak, and welds it.

While the students Hoda Abu Al-Ala, Haneen Al-Ghouthani, and Abdul Rahim Nasser Al-Din designed a glove to translate sign language into audible and readable speech, through a program on the mute person’s mobile phone, where the glove, through the “Wearless” feature, translates the movement of the fingers into letters and forms them into audio sentences. They reported that they had tried the program on some people with hearing disabilities and achieved a success rate of more than 85%.

While the students in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Hamad Al Ali, Saif Al Shehhi, and Hazza Al Shehhi, designed a cooling device for nuclear reactors that, in the event of high temperatures, works with precise sensors that pump water automatically to cool it. They designed a model of a nuclear plant to test and develop it in preparation for presenting it to the Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation.

The student Menna Allah Taha, Alaa Saleh, Rasha Nasser and Ahmed Al-Saqqa invented a device to stop postpartum bleeding, which is easy to use without a doctor, does not require an X-ray machine, and is equipped with an alert bell to stop if the bleeding stops. They pointed out that the device is intended to help women in Poor areas that suffer from wars and are not equipped with hospitals, delivery rooms, and doctors. In addition, its use is done through pictures of the steps of use printed on the device in order.

While the students, Amira Al Marzouqi, Mona Baabad, Salama Al Balushi, Noura Al Mazmi, and Halima Al Naqbi, created a colon cancer detection capsule, characterized by its circular shape and mounted with 4 cameras to transmit a panoramic image of the colon organ from the inside, and it has internal and external magnets for easy control and movement within the human body. .

While the students, Alia Al Jasmi, Amna Al Zaabi, and Amna Al Ali, designed a robot to track moving objects using a mobile phone, which can be installed on drones and used to plan traffic accidents to avoid crowding, or reach people missing in the desert and rescue them, in addition to delivering medicines to patients. In remote and distant places
