We’re excited to announce that two EPICS in IEEE projects have been awarded funding through the Dr. Swarn S. Kalsi Community of Projects Fund through the IEEE Foundation. Established through a generous memorial gift from the Kalsi family and friends, this fund empowers multidisciplinary student teams to design real‑world solutions that benefit their local communities. These awards honor Dr. Kalsi’s belief that engineers build the future and that education can transform lives.

Students from North Carolina State University's Electrical and Computer Engineering Senior Design Program in North Carolina are developing a high‑throughput system to measure, classify, and singulate crop seeds. Supported by funding from EPICS in IEEE, the project uses imaging and automation to estimate seed size and mass, organize data at scale, and support controlled growth experiments.
