Luca De Vito, assistant professor of the Department of Engineering of the University of Sannio received from IEEE a $ 10,000 award for the proposal of a course on measurements for drones.

In Turin, during the 2017 International Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference, Luca De Vito, assistant professor of the Department of Engineering of the University of Sannio, received the Faculty Course Development Award (http://ieee-ims.org/awards/faculty-course-development-award) of the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society.

The IEEE, which stands for Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (www.ieee.org), is the world greatest professional association in the field of Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

Within IEEE, the Instrumentation and Measurement Society (IMS) (www.ims.ieee.org) is dedicated to the development and use of electrical and electronic instruments and equipment to measure, monitor and/or record physical phenomena.

The IMS Faculty Course Development Award, consisting of a $ 10,000 grant was established to support and encourage faculty members to develop a new course or significantly revise an existing course with specific focus on Instrumentation and/or Measurement.

The awarded proposal describes the contents of a course titled “Drone for measurement and measurement for drone”, dedicated to the measurement technologies for the drone usage, to be delivered to the students of the PhD degree in Information technologies for Engineering.
