By now, I'm sure you've heard about our HUGE annual event that is coming up Jan. 30: Tech Fest. At least I hope you've heard about it. If not, you can find all kinds of details here.
In short, it's a big open house that features each of EVIT's nearly 40 programs in a fun way. This year is shaping up to be the best so far, with a crane simulator in construction, photo shoots in multimedia, SWAT demonstrations in law enforcement, and a dunk tank over by the Health Sciences Center.
Yes, that's right. A dunk tank. If you can show off your medical knowledge and/or donate to autism research, you can toss a ball to try to dunk one of your favorite health teachers.
Students and teachers have been busy this month preparing for Tech Fest and other upcoming competitions. I stopped by the computer repair class today, where some students showed me what they've been cooking up. One student demonstrated a robotic arm that moves around at all angles and can pick up objects:
And then I got to check out an underwater computer that actually works. You'll be able to try it out at Tech Fest:
The computer repair crew also will have a display board of various computer parts set up, as well as a TALKING computer. If you visit the EVIT campus for Tech Fest, be sure to check this program out.

The Tech Fest is a great event for technophobical people who likes to play with and keep updated about latest happening and technology available in the field of computers. I am very impressed with the computer which works under the water which is really useful thing.
ReplyDeleteEVIT graduates are the best service techs at my business. I should put a few of my guys on building me an underwater computer. I enjoy using the computer and swimming...if only someone could merge my two passions ;)
