Annual Symposium on Research and Industrial Training of Electronics (ASRITE) 2023

The Department of Electronics, Faculty of Applied Sciences of Wayamba University of Sri Lanka buzzed with excitement on December 11th and 12th, 2023, as the 10th Annual Symposium on Research and Industrial Training of Electronics (ASRITE) unfolded. This prestigious event, meticulously coordinated by Mr. Chandika Kiriella, served as a vibrant platform for final-year students to showcase their research prowess and ignite the flames of innovation.

Imagine a world powered by intelligent solar energy systems, natural rubber sheets dried by the sun’s gentle touch, and vigilant AI guardians protecting our transformers. These weren’t mere dreams, but tangible realities presented by the brilliant minds who participated in ASRITE.

Mr. U.I.K. Perera’s “Design of an Intelligent IOT Based Changeover for Hybrid Domestic Solar Power System,” supervised by Dr. Ajith Kumarayapa, emerged as the Best Final Year Research Presenter (Special Degree Program). His project envisioned a future where homes seamlessly switch between solar and grid power, optimizing energy consumption and harnessing the sun’s bounty.

Meanwhile, Ms. W.M.S.M. Weerasingha, guided by Snr. Prof. Kumudu Perera, took home the Best Final Year Research Presenter (Joint Major Degree Program) award for her ingenious “Development of a Drying Natural Rubber (Latex) sheets by using a solar panel.” This project not only offered a sustainable and efficient solution for drying latex but also promised to empower local rubber producers.

ASRITE wasn’t just about awards; it was about nurturing young minds, fostering collaboration, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the realm of electronics. The symposium provided a platform for students to receive valuable feedback from a panel of esteemed judges, refine their research, and connect with industry professionals.
As the embers of ASRITE 2023 fade, they leave behind a trail of inspiration. The symposium has ignited a spark in the hearts and minds of these young innovators, reminding us that the future of electronics is bright, brimming with potential, and shaped by the relentless pursuit of knowledge and ingenuity.
This event is a testament to the dedication of the Department of Electronics at Wayamba University and its unwavering commitment to empowering the next generation of electronics pioneers. May the spirit of ASRITE continue to illuminate the path for future innovators, lighting up the world with their groundbreaking ideas.
