A pragmatic and iterative framework for modern embedded systems product design: a case study of a lora based smart city technology enabler
Dzapasi, T. D.; Chimonyo, K. B.; Duri, R. (БНТУ, 2025)This paper presents an iterative framework for embedded systems design, validated through developing a third-generation LoRa-based smart city ecosystem. Traditional linear models fail to address manufacturing constraints and evolving requirements. The proposed framework integrates market benchmarking, manufacturer involvement, simulation, peer review, and data-driven iteration ...2026-01-14 -
A review of modern intelligent and energyefficient tobacco curing system
Munyanduri, T. P.; Makusha, D. T.; Chimonyo, K. B.; Rushambwa, M. C. (БНТУ, 2025)The article reviews the core technological components that enable intelligent and energy-efficient control of modern tobacco curing systems. Traditional flue-curing is a highly energy-intensive process relying heavily on subjective manual control, leading to high fuel consumption and variable leaf quality. This review focuses on the integration of Machine Vision (MV), specifically ...2026-01-14 -

Design and evaluation of a gps-gsm based iot tracking device for personal and asset tracking
Didymus, T. M..; Hazel, V. M.; Tapiwanashe, M.; Rushambwa, M. C.; Chimonyo, K. B. (БНТУ, 2025)Trackers play a crucial role in society by enabling individuals and organizations to monitor and manage their assets, resources, and activities more effectively. For people, companies, and organizations to safeguard their valuables against theft and to prevent unauthorized access, asset security is essential. This is why trackers are used. Trackers provide real-time information ...2026-01-14 -
Effects of phase shifting in dual active bridge (DAB) converters
Mutamba, C. T.; Musiiwa, P. B.; Machongwe, T.; Chimonyo, K. B.; Kapuya, E. T.; Musademba, D. (БНТУ, 2025)This paper analyses the effects of phase shifting in Dual Active Bridge (DAB) converters, which are widely applied in electric vehicle chargers, renewable integration, and solid-state transformers. Its symmetrical topology, comprising two full-bridge converters linked by a high frequency transformer and controlled through phase-shift modulation, enables seamless power flow in ...2026-01-14 -
Integrated poultry environmental monitoring and control system with GSM alerts
Shemiyadi, P.; Didymus, T. M.; Rushambwa, M. C.; Chimonyo, K. B. (БНТУ, 2025)Poor environmental conditions such as elevated levels of ammonia and carbon monoxide pose serious problems for poultry production since they thwart optimum growth of chickens. An Atmega328p microcontroller based integrated monitoring and control system prototype is presented in this study. In addition to LCD displays and GSM alerts for farmers, sensors such as DHT11 for temperature ...2026-01-14 -
Two decades of shaping adaptive electronic engineers for sustainable intelligent technologies and digital transformation: the case of the electronic engineering department at harare institute of technology, zimbabwe
Musiiwa, P. B.; Muredzi, P.; Kanhukamwe, Q. C.; Makusha, D. T.; Rushambwa, M. C.; Chimonyo, K. B. (БНТУ, 2025)This paper presents a longitudinal case study of the Department of Electronic Engineering at the Harare Institute of Technology (HIT), Zimbabwe, examining its evolution over two decades as a mandate-driven hub for competence-based, innovation-oriented engineering education. Since its establishment in 2005, the department has pioneered Zimbabwe’s Education 5.0 framework, embedding ...2026-01-14 -
Wearable radiation detection system for zimbabwe airports
Mukwewa, T. M.; Musiiwa, P. B.; Zwavashe, T.; Rushambwa, M. C.; Makusha, D. T.; Chimonyo, K. B. (БНТУ, 2025)This research paper focuses on the design and implementation of a wearable radiation detection system in Zimbabwe airports. With the increase in radiation emitting designs and technologies for security, airport personnel and passengers are at risk due to their exposure to the radiation. This paper aims to solve and minimize this risk, hence providing a wearable radiation detection ...2026-01-14
