On Tuesday (10/1/2017), three of my Master students presented their works to their assessors and myself. First up was Nametso, who presented her proposal on her Gesture-based Virtual Piano. Nametso needs to add a few more things on her LR, but more importantly, she needs to start developing, at least to get a working prototype done, so she can actually understand and solve the issues at hand. She has one more semester to complete this (Project for Master by coursework in UPM typically takes two semesters - one semester is for coming up with the proposal and the next semester is for actual development and dissertation writing).
Later in the afternoon, Bella presented her proposal, which was also her 1-year defense. Bella is currently away on maternity leave, and had only came in that afternoon for the presentation. She needs to get her hands dirty and starts working on her proof-of-concept as soon as she gets back in the lab in a few weeks' time.
Amy's turn followed after. Amy's presented her Literature Review. Glad that the assessors found that her project seemed interesting and they were happy with her materials. Alhamdulillah, a step in the right direction.
