History of research group activity
Intelligent control and monitoring research and technology group’s activity is initiated based on the technological and entrepreneurial activities of students and faculty members in the Persian Gulf University in the laboratory of intelligent digital control systems and with the main focuses on
- intelligent control and navigation
- high-speed and data-oriented digital systems
- Fault-tolerant systems.
This laboratory, which was established in the Faculty of Engineering in 2015 and has been developing since then, is equipped with several appropriate laboratory board sets, prototyping and electronic circuit design equipment, and has the capacity to host 15 students at the same time.
