Ingenious exhibtion
​
The Ingenious exhibtion is an annual show for all that is best in the audio visual and media tehnoloogy world. Students from avmt and elsewhere display their work.
The project featured herre is a recreation of part of a Z3 computer designed by Konrad Zuse in 1940.
An inter-disciplinary team of 5 students worked on the project. Students from Audio Visual Media Technology (AVMT) constructed the circuit from relays and fitted the switches and lamps into a lectern to give a fully functioning ripple adder made with 1940s technology. Two students from Visual Arts Practice and one Photography student proposed the display concept and then designed and built the kiosk and surrounds for the device.

Galileo boards from Intel
​
INTEL has chosen IADT as a university partner for introducing and promoting their new Galileo development boards into 3rd level curriculum. Galileo is a powerful Arduino compatible development board. It has been developed by Intel Ireland. IADT was successful in a competitive application for university partners and has received 40 Galileo development kits. This represents an endorsement by a major multinational in the multidisciplinary electronics and Physical Computing curriculum that is being developed here in IADT. Many thanks to Conor Brennan and Joachim Pietsch in preparing this application.
Showcase 2014
​
Final year students have the opportunity to present their project work at the Showcase event at the end of the year. Here is a video of some projects from the 2014 event which took place in May.
This project features the programming of an LED cube with an Arduino microcontroller.
Showcase 2014
Arduino based robotic hand/control glove
​
This project is based on the Arudino microcontroller's ability to process and wirelessly transmit data from a control glove to a robot hand..
The glove is fitted with flex senosrs which pick up finger movements which are then transmitted to a robotic hand.
Showcase 2014
625 LED matrix display board
​
A display was built from over 150 red green blue and white 10 mm LEDs.which could display images from a webcam at 15 fps. The display could also show an FFT graph and a spectrum analyser..
