PE 1 KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL BASE
PE1.1 Comprehensive,
theory based
understanding of the
underpinning natural and
physical sciences and the
engineering fundamentals
applicable to the
engineering discipline.
1. The project was based on the
designing of a wireless sensor
based network for
automatically controlling a
parking area. This project also
consisted of several
functioning and architecture of
the Atmel 89S52
microcontroller.
2. The project was based on the
laser guided door opener. It
also deals with the functioning
of several elements like

electromechanical relay,
phototransistor, LEDs.
3. The project was based on
reversible data hiding using
histogram modification of
pixel differences.
PE1.2 Conceptual
understanding of the
mathematics, numerical
analysis, statistics, and
computer and
information sciences
which underpin the
engineering discipline.
1. The project was based on the
analysis of the sensor
connectivity and functioning of
a microcontroller. The main
functioning was done in the c
programming in the
microcontroller.
2. The project was based on
automation based on laser
technology, and analog
electronics. The calculations
were related to the circuit
designing and the parameters
of the circuit elements for
proper execution.
