Profiles Department of Electrical Engineering 194 | P a g e www.ist.edu.pk Class of 2021 Message from the Head of Department Department of Electrical Engineering is one of the most active and productive departments at IST. We pride in having the most vibrant faculty and well- groomed multidimensional students driven by self- motivation and quest to continuously improve. We already have a well- established degree program in Electrical Engineering and from Fall 2020, the department has also started the degree program in Computer Science which has now become one of the most sought-after and premier career choice world-wide. Our department offers one of the field’s strongest instructional and research program driven in part by the industry. We have very strong linkages with both public sector as well private sector industry that results in meaningful projects and research. Our graduates have got jobs in big international companies like CERN, AirBus, Huawei, Eltek etc. and almost all renowned national firms including defense sector. Our graduates have won competitive MS/PhD scholarships in world's top schools including Columbia USA, BYU USA, RWTH Aachen Germany, York Canada, Cambridge UK, NTNU Norway and Monash Australia to name a few. I have always got very positive feedback from employers as well as foreign professors about our graduates and that always makes me and our faculty very happy. Unlike most other disciplines, career opportunities in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science are endless as graduates can work anywhere from startups to big tech firms and government agencies. With the world's focus on miniaturized electronics coupled with computer vision & artificial intelligence, both degree programs offered at department of electrical engineering at IST will prepare you for a bright future.

The project includes a hardware platform with three movable cameras and a movable platform, and a software code written in Python programming language to achieve this task. A wide range of industries that manufacture mechanical parts employ some form of inspection mechanism to validate parts conformance to the desired standard. This involves inspection of dimensions as well as defects, such as improper surface finishing etc. High-end industries with high precision requirements employ sophisticated methods for inspection, such as coordinate measuring machine (CMM) or X-ray computed tomography (CT). However, there are many small or medium-sized industries that have lower precision requirements for which the use of high-end inspection equipment is not feasible. Small or medium-sized industries rely on less expensive methods for their mechanical parts inspection. The simplest method is to use Go and No-Go gauges, however, it typically requires a human operator who only checks a single dimension per gauge and thus it is inefficient and prone to human error. To devise an inspection machine that has a low cost and is suitable for use in small and medium sized industries with similar accuracy requirements for parts inspection. Three cameras are used to capture various images that expose different dimensions of the mechanical part. Back lighting is used to illuminate the part placed on the V-shaped translucent surface, which results in images with improved contrast thereby improving the measurement accuracy compared to front lighting. The software algorithm performs camera calibration to eliminate the lens distortion and preprocessing for image enhancement and noise elimination. Next, image binarization is performed to highlight the edges of the object. The desired dimensions are extracted from the image followed by pixel to physical measurement mapping. The project measures the physical dimensions of different mechanical parts using a combination of specially designed hardware and a python computer vision-based software code. Parts inspection will become far more accessible for small and medium-sized industries and there would be no need to employ sophisticated methods for inspection.
