"The popularity of UAVs has increased lately due to fast development in electronics, navigation and telemetry systems," said Robert Popela, LÚ professor. "The UAV can stay in the air for longer times and thus decreases operational costs, but civil operation of UAVs is still a new concept that we are exploring. We are still looking toward a fully automatic system, but this will need more time to develop, and our prototype was just the first step."

In 2009, 40 people from the LÚ in Brno completed the development of an experimental aircraft, the VUT 001 Marabu, to offer a long-endurance semi-automated plane for public use. While it can fly on autopilot, a pilot is still onboard in case the plane needs to be controlled in an emergency.  

"During the mission, the pilot(s) can operate reconnaissance systems more safely with help of autopilot," Popela said. "The approach to using a piloted aircraft was to minimize the cost of development of aircraft suitable for future UAV operations."

The aircraft was built from composite materials with metal wings and is powered by a piston engine with a pusher propeller and can stay in the air for more than seven hours with a 120-liter fuel tank. Additionally, it has is a small jet engine, which is asymmetrically placed over the left wing.

On May 7, 2010, the Marabu was flown for the first time at Kunovice Airport and performed more than 20 successful test flights, enabling the enginerring faculty and LÚ to continue to develop other experimental planes for nonmilitary uses.

"The aircraft proved to have very good handling characteristics, and it was safe," Popela said. "We were able to collect a huge amount of data for further development."

According to Jaroslav Juračka, a mechanical engineering professor at the university, the success of the VUT 001 Marabu, enabled the development of two other aircrafts, which professors and researchers are currently working on. The jet engine, which is a product of the První brněnská strojírna company at Velká Bíteš near Brno, ushered in the creation of a high-performance turboprop aircraft called the VUT 061 TURBO. The aircraft is completely powered by the small engine. Also, the LÚ faculty has been working on a fully electric aircraft called the VUT 051 RAY.

Popela said there is a wide range of uses for all of the UAV and semi-automated experimental aircraft currently being developed at the university, such as search and rescue, livestock monitoring, wildfire mapping, pipeline security, home security, road patrol and scientific research.

"We believe that the future applications for UAVs or highly automated piloted aircrafts can significantly reduce operating costs of aerial monitoring," Popela said. "These projects and new developments will open new markets for aircraft producers and operators, as well."

As a full spectrum healthcare company, HLL is a premier organisation in the country which has stepped into the area of procurement management consultancy. The company also plays a major role in planning, designing and construction of medical infrastructure.

 

The academy plans to launch some other programmes besides M. Tech and MBA programmes, including the areas of social marketing and good manufacturing practices. The programmes, which have two semesters of six months each, will be held in distance education mode with contact classes. The curriculum has been designed to fulfill the requirements of healthcare institutions, procurement service agencies and equipment manufacturers.

P K Pradhan, Secretary, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, M Ayyappan, company Chairman, Managing Director and other senior officials were present on the occasion.

POST GRADUATE / POST DIPLOMA PROGRAMME
ON
CLINICAL ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT

It is not uncommon that fresh graduates and diploma holders in engineering lack adequate exposure to management disciplines. This holds good for clinical and biomedical engineers as well. The programme is intended to provide engineers from different disciplines requisite exposure to basic medical sciences and clinical engineering. The curriculum is designed to provide knowledge to students in the field of projects, maintenance, contract and procurement management as well as government procedures, rules and regulations.ObjectiveThe objective of the programme is to mould professionals to address varying needs in the field of healthcare delivery in the field of:

  •  Clinical engineering
  •  Project Management
  •  Maintenance management
  •  Asset management
  •  Procurement Management (with reference to medical equipment)
  •  Government procedures, rules and regulations relevant to procurement

Programmes Offered

  •  Post Graduate Diploma course on Clinical Engineering and Management [PGDCM]
  •  Post Diploma course on Clinical Engineering and Management [PDCEM]

The programmes are planned in distance education mode with contact classes. Both courses will be conducted in 2 semesters each of 6 months duration. There will be an orientation class in the beginning, followed by two contact classes of 5 days per semester to be conducted at Trivandrum and Delhi/Noida.

Eligibility  Post Graduate Diploma course on Clinical Engineering and Management [PGDCM]
Bachelor’s degree in engineering in any of the following branches:

  •  Biomedical
  •  Electronics
  •  Electrical
  •  Mechanical
  •  Instrumentation
  •  Chemical Biotechnology

Post Diploma course on Clinical Engineering and Management [PDCEM] Diploma in engineering in any of the following branches:

  •  Biomedical
  •  Electronics
  •  Instrumentation
  •  Electronics
  •  Medical Instrumentation

Course contents

PGDCM: 4 subjects per semester
PDCEM:  3 subjects per semester

First semester will have courses in clinical engineering and basic life sciences. Second semester will be mostly management oriented.

Study materials will be prepared by HLL in association with experts in the field, which will be issued to all students enrolled for the programme. Study materials will be supplemented by standard text books wherever necessary.

Examination

IGNOU will conduct examinations for courses and award the Post Graduate/ Post Diploma certificates.

Fee Structure

Rs.30000/- for PGDCM and Rs.20,000/- for PDCEM. Fees will be all inclusive.
