I had a technical talk in Iligan Institute of Technology, Mindanao State University last September 22 2016. This was in a gymnasium, the organiser choose that place to accommodate both the professionals, visitors and the students on its 1st JIECEP-IBC Summit 2016. The seminar, “ Implementing a Structured Cabling System ”, is based on ISO/IEC 11801. My plan was to discuss the important issues ignored during the implementation. I have intentionally selected few sections to fit the allotted time.  A Structured Cabling System (SCS) is a method for creating an organized cabling system that can be easily understood by installers, network administrators, and any other technicians that deal with cables. This method works best when you follow the standards. Industralized nations have the standards. Specialist / Engineers who made these standards have extensive experience over this technology. Every 5 to 10 years these standards are reviewed and change when necessary to fit in...

Computer Hardware Module I still remember the time when I was a kid, I would receive frequent scolding from my mom for not studying good to earn good grades. It took me a very long time to realize how important education towards meeting challenges in life is. As part of our childhood, I think most of us do not remember the complexities involved with learning something in school. Many children are struggling on how to read, and they prefer to play instead. This is what makes the equation more interesting to me, allow them to play around and subconsciously they will learn something. I never thought that if I share my skills, I will be losing money or I will get broke but it didn’t. My experience in giving my time, energy, resources, and leadership to create a positive impact in my community is awesome. I could not explain the feeling having to train people to learn electronics, computers, or self-development and hearing their own stories how they used that skills into their own live...

  The Republic Act 9292, known as the “Electronics Engineering Law of 2004” recognizes the importance of electronics engineering profession in nation-building and development. Its goal is to develop and nurture outstanding, high-caliber, and internationally competitive electronics engineering professionals that meet the global standards of practice and service. As stated in the Section 34, Article V of this act, electronics engineering professionals shall hold government positions that require the services of Professional Electronics Engineers, Electronics Engineers, and Electronics Technicians with scope of practice as specified in Section 5, Article I. Official Gazette of the Philippines, 2004 This provision is further reinforced by DILG Memorandum Circular 2013-01 which prompts Local Government Units to ensure that electronics engineering professionals hold positions or assignments that supervise, manage, and administer electronics services and regulate electronics ...

  Is it legal to install CCTV on a do it yourself setting in the Philippines? PD 1096, the National Building Code of the Philippines (NBCP) 3. LEGAL COMPLIANCE 3.1 Section 301 of the NBCP provides that “NO PERSON, FIRM OR CORPORATION, INCLUDING ANY AGENCY, OR INSTRUMENTALITY, OF THE GOVERNMENT SHALL ERECT, CONSTRUCT, ALTER, REPAIR, MOVE, CONVERT OR DEMOLISH ANY BUILDING OR STRUCTURE OR CAUSE THE SAME TO BE DONE WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING A BUILDING PERMIT THEREFORE FROM THE BUILDING OFFICIAL ASSIGNED IN THE PLACE WHERE THE SUBJECT BUILDING IS LOCATED OR THE BUILDING WORK IS TO BE DONE.”  The NBCP also specifies the documentary requirements to be submitted as well as the general processes that local governments have to follow in approving the building permit application.  3.2 Section 309 of the NBCP provides that “NO BUILDING OR STRUCTURE SHALL BE USED OR OCCUPIED AND NO CHANGE IN THE EXISTING USE OR OCCUPANCY CLASSIFICATION OF A BUILDING OR STRUCTURE OR PORTION THEREOF SHALL...

  The good part of AI is that it can be trained to identify and learn patterns and parameters, similar to the human brain. Machine learning and deep learning are both types of AI. With machine learning, systems embedded with AI can automatically adapt and learn from events without being explicitly programmed. However, a machine can also be trained through program settings to follow a set of rules, i.e. algorithms, to give  advanced features when it comes to security. Using behavioral analytics, a self-learning, A.I. takes the data from video cameras and continuously classifies objects and events that it sees. Take for example, a person crossing a street is one classification. A group of people is another classification. AI algorithms can effectively detect anomalies, such as unattended bags or suspicious activities, and raise alerts in real-time, significantly reducing response times. Using rule-based intelligence, AI and video analysis tools enable security teams to detect po...

The shape of the camera makes it difficult for onlookers to tell which way the camera is facing, which is a strong piece of design, deterring criminals by creating an air of uncertainty. Benefits ♦ Easy to install ♦ Indoor and outdoor settings ♦ 360 degree angle view ♦ Vandal proof ♦ IF night vision This is the best choice of camera for shops, restaurants, casinos, hotels and other hospitality businesses because the design allows you to monitor a wider angle at your premises.  Many also consider this type to be the best indoor camera as it can be placed on a strategic point of the ceiling to cover all angles of the room without being intrusive in design. Bullet Camera They are cylindrical in shape and are capable of observing long distances. Bullet cameras are most commonly placed outdoors so their casings are made resistant to water, dust ...

  Perfect vision in low light. The most important feature of a CCTV camera should have is a high definition and wide-angle video. The main purpose of a CCTV camera is to capture images for future reference. If the video quality is not good, the whole purpose of a CCTV camera would be lost. A high-definition camera would provide high picture quality, and one with a wide-angle lens would enable it to cover a much wider area as well. Things to consider when choosing a surveillance system: Resolution Higher resolution cameras produce clearer images with more detail. 720p is suitable for general monitoring, 1080p is suitable for most applications, and 4K is ideal for critical surveillance.  Light sensitivity Some cameras are better in low-light conditions, while others require more light to work well.  Functionality Consider whether you need the camera to record footage overnight or in low light.  Features Some useful features include: ♦ Two-way audio   A speaker and...
