Testing soon!

We have iWeek* going on this week which meant most of the students were taking part of lectures and workshops. It took a toll of students available for today's tasks. Luckily we still managed to do quite much!

We are almost ready with all the configurations, so today we started moving everything to competition area. All of the switches, power plugs, cables, wlan access points and basically everything else were carried in the Main Media Center and Sub Media Center. Now it is time to test them in real life! 

Our systems will be tested in Finlandia Hiihto in the beginning of February. Exciting!

ICT Project Expo

Different, but definitely fun day at school. So many different projects! I'm glad that this year every project was presented in fair instead of basic Power Point presentation. It was interesting to test all the applications other ones had made, comment and give feedback. The high light was definitely when I got to test VR glasses for the first time in my life. It was both amazing and scary.

Extempore promotion in #lahtiuas Faculty of Technology ICT Projects-expo. I'm surprisingly good at this. #lahti2017 #promotion #lamk #teku #mikämuumuka #worldchampionships #project #prhommia #edustushommia

With one day notice, our telecommunication team did quite well. I'm proud of my two team members who presented with me without any hesitation. I had made a small Power Point slide show which was on loop. It consisted basic information about our Lahti2017-project and some pictures. Besides the slide show we also had other computer with more detailed pictures and of course - promotion for this blog.

It was truly interesting to talk about this project. Make it more visible to other students. I would do this again any time.
