With the passage of time, the conventional sources of energy such as petroleum, coal, natural gas etc. are decreasing and the world is moving towards energy crisis. This situation is more prominent in countries like Pakistan. To overcome this energy crisis, scientists and engineers are searching for renewable energy resources. Among these resources, wind energy is of utmost importance. Countries like Germany are producing as much as 25,000 MW of energy from the wind. The objective of this project is to design the pitch control of wind turbine blades. The pitch control enables the wind turbines to capture the maximum energy from wind without damaging the mechanical structure of the turbine.

Mobile robots are generally operated on batteries and require various voltage supplies for different motors, control cards and sensors. Generating multiple regulated voltage supplies from a single battery is one of the basic requirements. Typical design objectives include high power conversion efficiency for longer battery life, small size for easy installation and electrical isolation between different outputs to reduce interference between different parts. This project aims at developing a multiple output power supply from a single battery with high efficiency and electrical isolation.

The objective is to design and develop an Active Beacons Localization System for mobile robots. The approach of localization uses triangulation or trilateration (measurement of position of a point in space if the distance or angle of the target point is known from at least 3 predetermined points is known). The project includes: comparative study of different sensors in this regard and choosing feasible techniques for the implementation of this system; Development/interfacing of sensors; Development of communication/control system for the traiangulation.

Instructions
All the columns of project proposal forms are mandatory to be filled. The minimum qualification for a supervisor is eighteen years of education plus two years service. The minimum requirement for a co-supervisor is eighteen years of education. In case of external supervisor (outside DEE), a co-supervisor will be mandatory from faculty and his role will be as a coordinator (no technical help). Wherever the project work is carried out (including classified establishments), the defense (only examiners and supervisor) and final presentation (open to all) will be held at PIEAS. The presence of supervisor is necessary for all presentations of fourth and fifth semesters. DEE has right to reject or accept any project.
