Project Fair
Project Fair 2026
The Electronics Engineering Technology Department will be having its annual project fair which showcases the electronic projects designed and built by our graduating students. Drop in at any time between 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM to see their creations. You decide how long to stay.
Mark your calendar(s) and come by to see some interesting and unique projects.
When: Friday, May 15, 2026, from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM
Where: Dawson College in CONROD’s (room 2F.4 located in the upper atrium)
Some of the projects that will be on display are:
PolyBench
A benchtop electronics measurement instrument that combines a DC power supply, signal generator, and digital multimeter into one compact, cost-effective system.
EcoFeather
A solar-powered automated bird feeder integrating sensor-based detection, video capture, and remote monitoring for efficient and intelligent operation.
Fontea Smart bottle
A smart water bottle integrating water diagnostic sensors for reading water quality, temperature, clearness, with an accompanying armband to measure user dehydration.
RemoteFX
A 2-in-1 analog effects and amplifier box compatible with mono electronic instruments. Effects include a 3-band equalizer, a resonant filter and a distortion filter, all controllable manually via encoders or remotely through a web interface.
Smart NAS with Custom UPS
SMARTNAS is a self-monitoring network attached storage system designed to track and report its operating condition in real time. It monitors temperature, fan performance, power status, and overall system health so users can quickly identify when maintenance is required. The system includes a custom lithium-ion backup battery pack with a seamless power switchover circuit, along with an automatic shutdown mechanism that prevents deep discharge and protects battery longevity. Powered by a Raspberry Pi 5, SMARTNAS features a built-in web dashboard for live status visualization and essential controls such as reboot, shutdown, and fan management. OpenMediaVault provides an administrative interface for managing NAS related tasks and services, offering a reliable and user-friendly way to configure storage, shares, and system settings.
RetroDisc
This project is a digital music player that recreates the user experience of a traditional record player. Instead of using vinyl, the system detects which disc is placed on the platter and automatically plays the corresponding track associated with it.
HomeLink
HomeLink is a modular smart home system that connects sensors and ESP32-based devices to a Raspberry Pi server that automates and controls lighting, climate, blinds, audio, and appliances through a centralized dashboard.
MASY (Modular, Adaptable, Search&rescue for You)
A controllable search and rescue drone, parts are hot swappable and each part of its body can be controlled individually. Meant to reduce search times and save lives by adapting to the situation.
Sprout
Sprout is an automated greenhouse system that monitors plant conditions such as soil moisture, temperature and humidity, and water level, and responds by controlling water pumps and UV lighting. It can run automatically based on sensor data, follow a set of schedules, or be manually controlled through a website. The system combines an Arduino, wireless communication, and a web interface to provide a simple and efficient way to care for plants.
EasyGrow System
An automated plant management system that measures soil moisture and temperature. Capable of both watering and fertilizing plants, all while using the 915 MHz band for low-power communication.
RFID Locker
Clients can register themselves as members and given a unique contactless card which they can use to select items from the lockers. Once registered, they may also place reservations online for certain items.
CarlitoSynth
A digital synthesizer based on subtractive synthesis for producing music demos and experimenting with sound.
IntelliDrive
Live telemetry system for cars that tracks speed, battery voltage, and motor temperature, as well as add safety by providing obstacle detection/auto-braking, as well as crash detection.
