The centre, essentially a research laboratory, has been set up at an expenditure of Rs. 20 lakh. Three batches of students of the institute took up research projects on developing “smart bus”, “smart house” and an Internet of Things (IoT)-assisted car.

From the next semester (Jan 2020) the ECE Department is offering a Global Elective on IoT and this lab will be used by the students of the elective to develop prototypes for their projects. It is significant to note that Alumni who are experts in IoT will be providing guest lectures for 12 weeks (one Alumni per week) while IoT Elective is being offered to the students.
