The Electrical Engineering Department of Diponegoro University (UNDIP) held a Final Project Expo on December 10, 2024 at the Electrical Engineering Basketball Court. This activity displays a variety of innovations from final year students who are ready to contribute to technological development in various sectors. This Expo aims to introduce student work to the academic community, industry partners, and the wider community.

One of the featured projects was the Design of Milk Pasteurization Tool with Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) Method by Kurnia Ashsiddiqi P. and Hayatul Khairiah. This innovation focuses on milk processing that is more effective and efficient than conventional methods. In addition, there is a Green Building Design that raises aspects of efficiency and conservation of electrical energy in the Campus Building of the College of Pharmaceutical Sciences Semarang (STIFAR). The project was carried out by Helmi Maulana, Danny Fajar Febriansyah, and Yusuf Rozaqi Ardiansyah with the hope of becoming an energy-efficient building prototype. Information technology was also highlighted through SIMKI, an Integrative Clinic Management Information System, designed by Aliifah Hanaan, Aldyn Aditya M Arrasyid, and Selvya Syalsabilla. The system offers operational efficiency at Diponegoro I Primary Clinic. In the work safety management sector, Naufal Yuddho Wicaksono and Reyhan Irfan Yahya presented the PPE Usage Detection System with CCTV, which enables automatic monitoring of the use of personal protective equipment.

In the renewable energy sector, Yusuf Izzul Haq and Farhan Hafizh Haya designed a Solar Power Plant for the PMI Building in Rembang Regency as a backup power supply. Another project that attracted attention was the Wind Power Plant with Savonius Turbine for Highway Lighting, a collaboration between Nuraniyah and Ravido Maedya P. These two projects show the commitment of students in supporting the clean energy transition. The development of information systems and applications based on digital technology was also present in this expo. The E-Logbook Koas Information System project at the Doctor Professional Education Study Program, Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University, designed by Yudhi Winantoro and Primaning Pangasa Imanullah, aims to facilitate the recording of koas logbooks electronically. Not to forget, the development of e-commerce-based applications was presented by Zahir Haidar Nafis and Muhammad Raihan through the E-Commerce Web Design project for the spice export process at PT Sri Nusantara Abadi.

In the processing industry sector, Benny Priyarto, Avior Hanif Romadhon, and Alif Herald Radianc S presented Conveyor Design and Implementation of Deep Learning on Fish Head Cutters. This project is designed to support automation in the fish preservation and distribution industry between cities. A similar project was also seen in the Design of a Dehydrator as an Alternative to Conventional Drying of Seaweed Products by Brata Singga Buana, Mas Bimo Sakalabhuwanatustikarana, and Teuku Richard Saladin. In the field of transportation and green energy, Carolus B. Eldwin Atmoko, Adinda Nur Hartanti, and Jamila Istiqomah presented the Electric Bike Design as a Healthy and Low Pollution Transportation Facility for Students. Meanwhile, innovation in IoT-based data management was shown by Muhammad Shidqi Yusniaji Perdana, Raffy Reyhan Ramadhana, and Gevin Faza Qinthara through the Implementation of the Internet of Things (IoT) in Catfish Cultivation.

Electricity network management was also a topic raised in this expo. Fauzan Ramadhan, Kevin Marcianno Suci Agung, and Deni Rifaldi presented the Electrical Network Optimization project through the Design of Improving the Quality of Electricity at the Diponegoro University Postgraduate Building. On the other hand, Hasby Nauly Sabilillah, Rizky Apriansyah, and Haenrite Cahyo Agrea proposed the Electricity Distribution Network Development Planning Based on Load Growth in the Cengklik Reservoir Area and Adi Soemarmo Airport. In addition to these projects, measuring instrument innovations were also exhibited, such as the Design of Microcontroller-Based Earth Tester by Aldy Darmansyah Prawira, Ajenio Dhanu Pratama, and Muhamad Shofaul Manba’. In the field of electric power management, Topik Ismail and Ilyas Musaddad presented the Design of Reactive Power Compensator for Three-Phase Inductive Load Based on Internet of Things.

Monitoring technology-based projects were also present at this expo. Aldhy Eka Satria and Gunawan Ibrahim exhibited the Design of Lightning Air Terminal Prototype with Franklin Method Connected to Blynk-Based Lightning Strike Monitoring System. Meanwhile, Muhammad Naufal Ghozi, Muhammad Hafidz Mustaqim, and Aditya Brahmanto Putra presented the Design of an Automatic Form Data Filling System from the Value Converter Website. Various other innovations that were also displayed were the Design of Street Lighting Using Solar Panels with Solar Tracker and Arduino-based Solar Panel Cleaning Control by Muhamad Hamdani Adnan, Rizal Nuradhipermana, and Alfan Yahya Al Ghifari. Not to forget, application-based projects were also highlighted, such as the Design of Android Applications for Strength Training Sports Aids with Movenet Pose Detection Models by Andromedha Anjar Wasari and Husain Abidin Widayat.

These various innovative results reflect the enthusiasm and creativity of UNDIP Electrical Engineering students in creating technological solutions in various fields. This Expo is expected to not only be an appreciation event for student work, but also the first step towards collaborative research and technology development with industry and government agencies. With so many innovative works on display, Expo Final Project 2024 succeeded in showing how great the potential of UNDIP Electrical Engineering students in creating solutions that are relevant to the needs of society and industry in this modern era.
