Research trip/Vísindaferð is a visit to learn about companies (also as future employers) and to learn about the science behind the products that they develop. Often, these are organised by student associations as a social event.

This time, our student association Nörd visited not a company, but their teachers at the Computer Science department to learn about the research done there -- to get an idea of topics that they could do later as M.Sc. students.

I presented the following short slide deck on Software Engineering research area and the Cybersecurity M.Sc. specialisations.

Video showing the installation of a buoy: due the results of a student's M.Sc. thesis, the location can be obtained with centimeter precision and even without mobile phone coverage: an internet connection at the shore can be relayed via LoRaWAN several dozens of kilometers. Note that the linked video goes into archiving mode if it has not been viewed for two years.

The above video shows the results of the M.Sc. thesis Design and Implementation of a Buoy Positioning and Monitoring System Using Differential GNSS and LoRaWAN.
