As part of #Erasmus<\/a>+, the University of Tours and Polytech Tours was organising the 1st summer school of the DECEL project (3 to 7 July 2023).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 During five sessions, students from different institutions in France (Tours), Spain (Alcala), Portugal (Porto) and Italy (Ferrara) carry out the same practical activities in digital electronics on the theme of ultrasound. The aim is to programme an FPGA (field-programmable gate array: a miniaturised electronic circuit – a microprocessor, for example – that can be reprogrammed using a specific computer language) and several software layers in order to obtain an initial ultrasound image using a DiY prototype.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had 5 training day in DECEL #Erasmus+ project week at Tours. At the end, the presentation of results achieved throughout this week. It ended with the awards ceremony for the best imaging strategy proposed. The winners of the week are the authors of the poster entitled: “Underwater objects detection and form recognition through US system<\/a>” (by
Enrico Rizzi (@University of Ferrara), Jaime Leal (@University of Alcala), Jiacheng CHEN (@University of Tours), Jorge Pais (@University of Porto))<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional to technical training on digital electr\u00f3nics and systems, it was great to see how well international teams collaborate. Participants rated the overall experience with 90%. Here is one student feedback (Jaime Leal Pe\u00f1ascoJaime Leal Pe\u00f1asco<\/a>) about the DECEL training in Tours:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

” [view on LinkedIn<\/a>] During this last week, the DECEL Electronic Engineering Festival took place in the city of Tours. At this event, I had the opportunity to meet and chat with different students and researchers from Universit\u00e9 de Tours<\/a>, Universidade do Porto<\/a>, and Universit\u00e0 degli Studi di Ferrara<\/a>, as well as spending time with my colleagues from Universidad de Alcal\u00e1<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were able to enjoy lectures by professionals from STMicroelectronics France<\/a> and Vermon<\/a>, discussing the current challenges and technologies in the fields of AI, US, and electronic design. As a complement to these talks, a competition was organized among international teams consisting of students from the various involved universities. The challenge required designing a system for detecting submerged shapes underwater using a US sensor and a RedPitaya<\/a> card. It was undoubtedly a very enjoyable challenge in which I could share diverse ideas, knowledge, and perspectives on engineering with my teammates Jorge Pais<\/a>, Jiacheng CHEN<\/a> and Enrico Rizzi<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would like to express my gratitude to all the students, professors, and staff involved in the project for making this a unique experience to learn and improve my skills as an engineer. It also allowed me to meet brilliant international engineers and share such an enriching experience with them. Thank you all for your contribution and for creating such a remarkable opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wish you the best! \ud83d\ude09”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
