Pinnguaq Association is pleased to announce that it is a sponsor for Fleming College’s Applied Projects course, where a group of students from the School of Business and School of Trades and Technology will work with Pinnguaq on a project that provides a setting for a real-world problem for students to solve.

The students selected to work with Pinnguaq are: Akhil Gopagoni, Vykunta Mani Sai Gopal Rayapudi, Avinash Vempati and Tanzeel Uzair Saify, and together form the Vayaputhra Hanuman team. Collectively, they have skills in Linux Administration, Computer Networking, Fundamentals of computer science Engineering. MATLAB, C language, Basics of embedded C, Fundamentals of Electronics Communication Engineering, Fundamentals of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. Soldering, and Basic level SAP.

The Vayaputhra Hanuman team will work with Pinnguaq to conduct research on a variety of ways to address connectivity challenges in the Canadian Arctic, specifically in Nunavut, Canada. This project will also see the creation of pilots and prototypes (of mesh networks, intranets and others) for addressing connectivity challenges in remote and economically disadvantaged areas, thus supporting the development of our proposal for the second phase of the Smart Cities Challenge.
