A team of our student researchers marked QMCUR's fourth consecutive presence at the Industrial Liaison Forum (5th November 2025) by presenting 11 research posters on a wide range of topics, reflecting the breadth of activities conducted at our Centre. Approximately 20 students participated as authors and co-authors of the posters and enthusiastically engaged with academic staffs and visitors to explain their projects and receive feedback and exchange ideas with their peers.

The prize for the Best Poster was awarded to the work presented by the Cybathlone group, titled "Seeing Through Touch: A Method for Navigation of the Visually Impaired" by Mr Bohdan Skulimovskyi (current President of Cybathlone) Ms Seagull Presanna Nithyanandam (current Vice-President, Rindhiya Shankar and Jensen Rajesh. This project aims to develop a device that helps visually impaired individuals travel independently in public transports using a tactile assistive sensing mechanism, designed to provide feedback in real-time, thereby enhancing mobility reducing isolation.

QMCUR thanks everyone involved for their participation. This ongoing engagement significantly enhances the Centre's visibility and reputation within SEMS, across QMUL, and with external industrial collaborators, reinforcing our commitment to research and knowledge dissemination.
