IEEE Dayton Section Student Paper Contest

On April 2, Saturday morning, IEEE Dayton Section Student Paper Contest was held at The Institute for Development and Commercialization of Advanced Sensor Technology (IDCAST). IDCAST’s mission is to provide the framework to bring together technologies in the Dayton region.

We wish to thank Larrell Walters, who is the director of IDCAST, where he is leading the Dayton’s technical collaboration of research effort and has been instrumental again for helping our IEEE Dayton Section with the Student Paper Contest events and future organizational efforts. Larrell’s help has been invaluable!
