Finnish Delegation at the Robotics Lab

On Friday, March 14, Bálint Farkas held a fascinating robotics lab demonstration, which was met with great enthusiasm by the Finnish delegation! The guests arrived from Kemi, the twin city of Székesfehérvár, and were highly impressed by the outstanding facilities of Alba Regia Faculty.

They particularly appreciated the modern lecture halls, the high-tech laboratories, and the excellent learning environment available to our students. We believe their visit will help promote the excellence of Hungarian higher education and the Alba Regia Faculty internationally.

Uzbek Guests at Óbuda University Alba Regia Faculty

We are delighted to welcome our guests from Uzbekistan’s Central Asian University in Tashkent, who are participating in a three-week project at the Industrial Robotics Laboratory of the Óbuda University Alba Regia Faculty.

During the program, students will face real industrial challenges and have the opportunity to enhance their professional knowledge in an international environment. In our industrial robotics lab, they will work with cutting-edge technologies that play a key role in industrial automation and robotics.

We hope that our guests will gain valuable experience and lasting memories during these three weeks and that the cooperation between our university and the Central Asian University will continue to grow in the future.

Dual Education: A Win-Win Model for Students, Universities, and Industry

On January 29, 2025, a webinar on “Dual Education: A Win-Win Model for Students, Universities, and Industry” was held at the “Economics” Faculty of “TIIAME” National Research University. The guest speaker, Dr. Monika Pogatsnik from Óbuda University, Hungary, shared insights on the benefits of the dual education system.

The event took place at the TIIAME” National Research University in Tashkent, Üzbekistan, involving undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers. Several students from other universities in Tashkent also participated.

The discussion covered study opportunities at Óbuda University, the increasing number of international students, and the benefits of studying in Hungary. Participants received valuable information and answers to their questions.

These types of international webinars not only inform but also motivate students to improve their skills, explore study opportunities abroad, and engage in global academic communities.

SAMI2025 – january

Bertalan Beszédes, lecturer at Óbuda University, participated in the January 23-25, 2025. at the IEEE 23nd World Symposium on Applied Machine Intelligence and Informatics (SAMI2025) international conference held in Stará Lesna, Slovakia. https://conf.uni-obuda.hu/sami2025

The title of his article presented at the conference is “Design of a Cost-efficient Uniaxial Solar Tracking Charge Controller”. The article focuses on the design and development of a low-cost single-axis solar tracking charge controller, aimed at maximizing the efficiency of photovoltaic systems, with the current boundary conditions. Further goal of the study is to show a well usable demonstration device for engineering educational purposes, in the field of electronics and embedded systems.

The conference covered many topics, including the fields of intelligent robotics, mechatronics, artificial intelligence and education. The event was supported by several well-known organizations, including Kassai University of Technology, Óbuda University, and IEEE Hungary.

🎓🌍 Visitors from Karshi University at our Faculty 🌍🎓

We were delighted to welcome representatives from Karshi University who visited our faculty to explore our educational and research activities. During their stay, our guests had the opportunity to learn about the work carried out in our Industrial Robotics Labs, the Industry 4.0 Laboratory, and the Geoinformatics Institute. Our colleagues introduced them to ongoing innovative projects, cutting-edge developments, and technological solutions.

These international visits provide an excellent opportunity for knowledge sharing, fostering new ideas, and laying the groundwork for future collaborations. We thank our visitors for their interest and engaging discussions!

📸 Here are some highlights from the visit!

Study Visit to Audi Hungaria

Students from the Alba Regia Faculty of Óbuda University, specializing in engineering informatics, electrical engineering, technical management, and mechanical engineering, recently participated in a study visit to the Audi Hungaria plant in Győr.

This factory tour, now a well-established tradition, offered students a comprehensive introduction to the plant’s history, structure, key vehicle manufacturing processes, and applied technologies through an engaging presentation. The factory’s commitment to environmental sustainability and energy efficiency was also highlighted.

During the visit, students explored the Body Shop, where they observed various forming and assembly techniques, logistics processes, and quality assurance procedures. They also had the opportunity to witness industrial robots operating within manufacturing cells.

As a special highlight at the end of the tour, students participating in Audi’s internship program showcased a vehicle they had worked on, demonstrating a control program they helped develop.
