You must be an ENGenius

ENGenius Platinum Award winners

ENGenius Platinum Award winners, Adam Chrimes, James Anderson and Stefan Heaton, (Daniele Arena absent) with their invention, the Robotic Airport Luggage Transporter.

The School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at RMIT University held its annual ENGenius Trade Fair, showcasing the talents of third and final-year undergraduates.

The event provided an excellent opportunity for students to demonstrate their projects, and develop networks with industry contacts.

Student projects were assessed by a panel of industry representatives. The five most innovative designs received prizes.

Lorrain Tran, Curriculum Manager of P-12 Design and Technology at the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA), was very impressed with the quality and professionalism of the exhibition.

“I really enjoyed the exhibition,” Ms Tran said. “The exhibitors were well briefed and all provided clear explanations of their projects.

“The projects were very innovative, and I notice a much greater focus this year on systems to address environmental issues, such as management of energy and water use,” she said.

This year’s major prize of $3,000 was awarded to Adam Chrimes, James Anderson, Stefan Heaton and Daniele Arena for their Robotic Airport Luggage Transporter invention.
