I have finalised the marks in SMS.

I am impressed very much by the the quality of the projects. I would like to particularly highlight the following projects and teams .

"IoT Smart Contract" by Team Smart Contracts (Members' names are omitted due to privacy concerns)

"Monitoring strain of container lashings" by Team TOC, and

"COVID-19 virtual fence" by Team Good Enough.

I hope all of you enjoyed the course. Congratulations if you are graduating this term. If you will be at uni in 2022, then I wish you a great summer break and hope to see you in some other courses next year.

If you haven't done so, please contact Jiawei to return your loaned device.

Welcome to COMP6733 21T3!

As per UNSW policy below, lectures and labs will be delivered online until at least the end of Flexibility Week, Friday 22 October. We will arrange the delivery of hardware required for labs to you home. If you haven't done so, please fill in the Google form delivery information available in the Labs page . We will use the information for hardware delivery only.

You don't need to attend the labs in full as far as you can finish and submit your lab exercises on time, as well as perform demonstration and answer your tutor's questions in the lab or via Zoom. Note that some of the course project will be done in groups.

"The escalating COVID-19 case numbers in recent days remain concerning.

Given the ongoing situation, we have decided that all Term 3 courses will be delivered online until at least the end of Flexibility Week, Friday 22 October. We continue to hold out every hope for some on-campus teaching in Term 3, and if this does become possible, we will prioritise making labs, practical and studio classes etc available to those students who can attend. We will continue to make courses available online to those students unable to come to campus. We will review the situation regularly and keep you updated as things unfold.

Students with questions about how their study may be affected in Term 3 can read our FAQs here .

We want to again reiterate how grateful we are to our students and staff for their ongoing commitment and resilience. We encourage you all to take advantage of the support resources available and seek out any assistance you may need. "
