icimpetus 2014 - 2014 International Conference On IMPact Of E-Technology On US

The PES International Conference on IMPact of E-Technology on US (IC-IMPETUS) is an event to recognize and celebrate innovations in the fields of electronics engineering and computer science that have made an impact on society by addressing some challenge. The objective of the meet is to inspire undergraduate students and engineering faculty to focus on what IT engineers can and ought to do best---to take up problems that can be addressed using e-Technology and thus make a difference for the better.
The impact areas we are looking at include
Agriculture
use of sensors to determine soil quality, water purity, recommendation systems for crops, vision systems and robots for harvesting
Biomedicine and Healthcare
design of assist devices such as hearing aids, software to facilitate telemedicine, prescreening devices, computer aided diagnostics and therapeutics
Education
design of interactive learning systems, software to help the learning disabled, promote e-learning
Environment and Energy
green computing to reduce the C-footprint, tracking of flora and fauna to protect endangered species, modeling of ecosystems
Rural development
innovations in engineering and information technology that have contributed to the connectivity, literacy, health and financial independence of rural populations
Governance, Administration and Commerce
Innovations that have facilitated transparency, envisage to improve processes and eliminate “middlemen” through mobile and internet applications and promote e-commerce
