Editor’s Column 8 Electronics is clearly the winner of the day - John Ford
It instills me with a sense of exuberance and pride that Poornima Zenith - Newsletter of CSE
Department focuses on a very pertinent topic in current scenario which is “Frontiers of Engi-
neering in Education and Profession”. As we all are aware engineer ing has become the
most sought after profession today and every student aspires to be a technocrat, as engineers
hold the capability to enthuse life and vitality in almost everything. Engineers are gaining
prominence in almost all arenas across the globe. They have set foot in around all possible
fields be it education including artificial Intelligence, robotics etc. Earlier we were looking
abroad for solving our problems but now foreigners are looking at us for solving “their” prob-
lems. But the situation can continue if and only if, we keep enhancing our capability and talent.
There is no time to waste on our past laurels.
So I wish this Newsletter success and hope that it compels the naive minds of the young engineers to reflect the
practical application of engineering so as to benefit people.

“Engineering is the art of organizing and directing men and controlling the forces and materials
of nature for the benefit of the human race”.
I am glad to learn that the Electronics and Communication Engineering Department of Poornima
Group of Institutions is coming out its sixth edition of newsletter ‘Poornima - Pratishtha’ with
theme as Frontier of Engineering in Education and Profession, which can make this world more
advanced and take it to a new horizon of technology. The engineers have worked hard to articu-
late their understanding of emerging trends of global development in science and technology.
The achievements of students are indeed praiseworthy and reinforce the selected theme.
I appreciate the efforts of the members of the editorial team for bringing out this publication and
convey my best wishes to all students and faculty members of the Department for success in
whatever they do.
“Jai Jai Poornima Sansthan”

Achievement of NASA: Hubble Space Telescope, the Universe Unveiled (1990-present)
Before 1990, our view of space came from ground-based light telescopes. The images were interesting, but not very clear, and the optics couldn't
see far enough to give us the views astronomers had in mind. Earth's atmosphere, with all its clouds, water and gas vapours, isn't terribly condu-
cive to conducting light, a requirement for capturing clear images.
The solution was clear: Put a telescope on the other side of Earth's atmosphere, where the light would travel to distant objects and bounce back
unhindered. Named after astronomer Edwin Hubble, the telescope offered the first clear views of the universe beyond our galaxy. Hubble devel-
oped a theory based on the changing nature of stars light years away. The Hubble Space Telescope would let astronomers prove his theory that the
universe is expanding.
The work began in 1975. It took 15 years to launch Hubble. Scientists spent eight years assembling and testing the telescope's 400,000 parts and
26,000 miles (41,843 km) of wiring. It would have been in orbit in the late '80s, but the Challenger disaster in 1986 pushed the launch date back to
1990.
The Hubble Space Telescope lets us watch the expansion of the universe in a way never before imagined. Not only does it have 10 times the reso-
lution of a ground-based telescope and 50 times the sensitivity, but another development around the same time made its unprecedented views of
the universe more accessible than any previous scientific advance. With the advent of the Internet, people could sit at home and watch the universe
unfold in all hi-resolution, full-colour glory. Hubble revealed the world, going out billions of light years from Earth, to anyone who cared to see it.

Bittersweet Life. I wish the whole day were like breakfast, when people are still connected to their dreams, focused inwards, and not yet ready to engaged with the world around them. I realized this is how I feel all day; for me, unlike other people, there doesn't come a moment when suddenly I feel alive, awake and connected to the world. I like thinking deeply. I often think I want to think something but I can't find the languages that coincide with the thoughts, so it remain felt not thought. I cannot write in words what I feel, I just feel. To everyone, I'm just a Normal boy, they want me to be good towards them, they want me to learn kindness after so much of unkindness, to learn how to love after being hurt. Sometimes I asks my dog," why don't you see how it feels like to cut your hair, put some shoes and get dressed up and try being a human, a freaking human being like me." Being nice to everyone, keep hurting myself, expecting things to happen good for me. Like "happiness", we must not expect happiness. It is not something we deserve. When life goes well, it's a sudden gift. Happiness cannot last forever. I don't like talking much, yet people around me make me to talk. People always talk about their lives. I think, we should only say something if what we are saying is more beautiful than our silence. I'm bad in attaching my emotions to anyone or this outer world, because I know nothing in this world is going to last forever. I think, all this world I see is kind of my imaginations, people I see are my projection. The only thing I feel real is what inside me, either it is my soul or God. I don't know but I can feel it inside me . So like to be alone as soon as I got time, it feels good when people are not around me. I feel more myself when I'm alone. I can actually talk to myself and know what I really want, not what others want me to do. Being alone doesn't mean to be lonely, it's like not driven by the thought of other people. I think we all are like plastic open bottle in middle of the ocean, with no cap, so the water comes easily inside us and soon we are full of water and drowned in the ocean. Ocean is like people in this world and water is like flowing thoughts of other people. When you allow other people thought fill up your mind, soon you'll be drowned. Don't let other people's thought drowned down your own voice. A feeling is a voice of nature inside us, preventing our feelings makes us deny our own nature inside us.

Mobile, the New Remote!
Nano Ganesh, developed by Ossian Agro Automation, hands over control of
pump sets in rural India to the mobile phone. It allows farmers to switch the
pump on/off from any place using a mobile. “The farmer can monitor and check
availability of the power at the pump, switch the pump on/off and acknowledge
on/off status of the water pump from any place. One of its kinds, Nano Ganesh
is specially designed to be robust to perform efficiently in the rural atmosphere.
Nano Ganesh is made of four stages: regulated 5V and 12V DC power supply,
DTMF decoder circuit and optical isolators, tone generators to provide power
supply or pump on/off status, and output stages of relay and logics.
Harvesting technology
After the deployment of Nano Ganesh, a preset code is given to the farmer to
switch on/off the pumpset. To switch it on, the farmer has to call up the mobile
attached to the starter panel of the pump. The mobile attached to the starter
panel confirms the availability of power/electricity supply in the pumpset loca-
tion by a long beep following which the farmer can dial the preset code to
switch on the pump. After dialling the code, the farmer (user) has to confirm the
function by a feedback tone and then cut the call. For switching off the pump-
set, the same process has to be repeated, of course, with a different preset code
to switch off the pump.

ANDROID
Android is the whole OS, written in Java, but applica-
tions for it is written in Android's own little lan-
guage. Android was built from the ground-up to enable
developers to create compelling mobile applications
that take full advantage of all a handset has to offer. It
was built to be truly open. For example, an application
can call upon any of the phone's core functionality
such as making calls, sending text messages, or using
the camera, allowing developers to create richer and
more cohesive experiences for users. Android is built
on the open Linux Kernel. Furthermore, it utilizes a
custom virtual machine that was designed to optimize
memory and hardware resources in a mobile environ-
ment. Android is open source; . The platform will con-
tinue to evolve as the developer community works
together to build innovative mobile applications. An-
droid is not a single piece of hardware; it's a complete,
end-to-end software platform that can be adapted to
work on any number of hardware configurations. the
way up to the applications.

Mico headphones scan brainwaves to match songs to your mood Finding the perfect song to match what a person is feeling is practically an art form. That's the idea behind Neurowear's latest gadget, the Mico
headphones, which use a brainwave sensor to detect the wearer's mood and play a song to match.
Developed by Neurowear, the Mico headphones use a brainwave sensor to detect the wearer’s mood and then play a song to match using a
smartphone app.Aside from an extra bulky appearance, Mico looks like a typical set of over-the-ear headphones, but with the addition of an EEG
(electroencephalograph) sensor protruding from the front. According to the developers, the sensor allows the headphones to analyze a person's
brain patterns and determine the wearer's mood.It's hard to say how accurate the song matching software is?

Positive Thinking - Think positive
If you want to live longer, be happy, healthy and successful, all you have to do is tell yourself that you can do it by tapping the healing forces
within.
There is no greater joy than a healthy, positive life. You feel exhilarated, energetic, happy and on top of the world. A sense of total well being
permeates your mind. The future looks bright. You feel good to be alive.
Great, but how do we get out of our innumerable worries, tensions and fears that the increasingly competitive life burdens us with? Simple! Tell
yourself that you are good, healthy and capable. That is the power of positive affirmations.
Such affirmations are also called self-suggestions. It is a powerful tool for transforming your inner self into an amazing health generating, self-
healing entity. You can record these affirmations on a tape synchronized with pleasant instrumental music and replay them often to make them
more effective and permanent.

Automated external defibrillator
An automated external defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses the potentially life threatening cardiac ar-
rhythmias of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia in a patient, and is able to treat them through defibrillation, the application of elec-
trical therapy which stops the arrhythmia, allowing the heart to reestablish an effective rhythm. With simple audio and visual commands, AEDs are
designed to be simple to use for the layman, and the use of AEDs is taught in many first aid, first responder, and basic life support (BLS) level car-
diopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) classes.
Conditions that the device treats
An automated external defibrillator is used in cases of life threatening cardiac arrhythmias which lead to cardiac arrest. The rhythms that the device
will treat are usually limited to:
Pulse less Ventricular tachycardia (shortened to VT or V-Tach)
Ventricular fibrillation (shortened to VF or V-Fib)
In each of these two types of shock able cardiac arrhythmia, the heart is active, but in a life-threatening, dysfunctional pattern. In ventricular tachy-
cardia, the heart beats too fast to effectively pump blood. Ultimately, ventricular tachycardia leads to ventricular fibrillation. In ventricular fibrilla-
tion, the electrical activity of the heart becomes chaotic, preventing the ventricle from effectively pumping blood. The fibrillation in the heart de-
creases over time, and will eventually reach asystole. AEDs, like all defibrillators, are not designed to shock asystole ('flat line' patterns) as this will
not have a positive clinical outcome. The asystolic patient only has a chance of survival if, through a combination of CPR and cardiac stimulant
drugs, one of the shock able rhythms can be established, which makes it imperative for CPR to be carried out prior to the arrival of a defibrillator.

Tissue engineering Principle of tissue engineering
Tissue engineering is the use of a combination of cells, engineering and materials methods, and suitable biochemical and physio-chemical factors
to improve or replace biological functions. While it was once categorized as a sub-field of bio materials, having grown in scope and importance it
can be considered as a field in its own right While most definitions of tissue engineering cover a broad range of applications, in practice the term is
closely associated with applications that repair or replace portions of or whole tissues (i.e., bone, cartilage, blood vessels, bladder, skin, muscle
etc.). Often, the tissues involved require certain mechanical and structural properties for proper functioning. The term has also been applied to ef-
forts to perform specific biochemical functions using cells within an artificially-created support system (e.g. an artificial pancreas, or a bio artificial
liver). The term regenerative medicine is often used synonymously with tissue engineering, although those involved in regenerative medicine place
more emphasis on the use of stem cells to produce tissues. A commonly applied definition of tissue engineering, as stated by Langer and Vacanti,
is "an interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of engineering and life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that re-
store, maintain, or improve tissue function or a whole organ". Tissue engineering has also been defined as "understanding the principles of tissue
growth, and applying this to produce functional replacement tissue for clinical use." A further description goes on to say that an "underlying suppo-
sition of tissue engineering is that the employment of natural biology of the system will allow for greater success in developing therapeutic strate-
gies aimed at the replacement, repair, maintenance, and/or enhancement of tissue function."
-Chandan Kumar Dubey
Learning disability
In the United States and Canada, the term learning disability is used to refer to psychologi-
cal and neurological conditions that affect a person's communicative capacities and poten-
tial to be taught effectively.The term includes such conditions as dysgraphia (writing disor-
der), dyslexia (reading disorder), dyscalculia (mathematics disorder) and developmental
aphasia.In the United Kingdom, the term learning disability is used more generally to refer
to developmental disability.Someone with a learning disability does not necessarily have
low or high intelligence, nor any innate inability to learn.It just means this individual has an
impairment to their ability due to a processing disorder, such as auditory processing or visu-
al processing, that is detrimental to learning from traditional teaching methods.Learning
disabilities are usually identified by school psychologists through testing of intelligence,
academics and processes of learning.
Dyslexia Developmental dyslexia is a condition or learning disability which causes difficulty with
reading and writing. Its standard definition is a difficulty in reading and writing in spite of
normal development of intelligence, cognitive and sensory ability.People are often identi-
fied as dyslexic when their reading or writing problems cannot be explained by a lack of
intellectual ability, inadequate instruction, or sensory problems such as poor eyesight.
Some disagreement exists as to whether dyslexia does indeed exist as a condition, or wheth-
er it simply reflects individual differences among different readers.
