MicroChip is addressed to students of the Lublin University of Technology who want to broaden their knowledge of designing electronic systems and microprocessor technique. The key project of this group aims at creating an ‘Orion’ mobile robot for the ERC 2015 competition.
The group’s main objective is to broaden practical and theoretical knowledge as well as share experience and passions. Students do not stick only to typical IT fields, e.g. programming, systems, or computer networks and their derivatives, e.g. graphics, robotics and electronic engineering.
The group is focused particularly on designing and developing tool programming (interpreters, compilers, word processors) and numeric software. The circle developed e.g. a multiplatform modelling system for an 8-bit microcomputer (assembler, simulator, word processor).
The works of WSEIX involved preparation of a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS installation CD image, which is tailored to scientific and academic activities undertaken in this institution. A dedicated set of additional packages, a logo, and a set of wallpapers have been prepared. Consequently, WSEI Free has been created and installed in all laboratories.
