President’s Word
It is a big honor for me as we collectively submit our third continuous annual report of SPIE
Chapter, University Of Delhi at Acharya Narendra Dev College for the academic year 2012-13.
It has been a very delightful journey so far as the president of the ANDC SPIE Chapter. This is
the 3rd
year of our SPIE Chapter and our family has now grown multifold with around 100 active
student members from three different colleges of University Of Delhi belonging to various
disciplines.
This year we went to fourteen different schools to promote optics and photonics under the Optics
Outreach Programme of SPIE for junior level students by conducting experiments in ray optics
and fiber optics for senior level students with the help of kits completely developed by our SPIE
Student members.
Each student member took remarkable interest in each activity of the outreach programme and
their enthusiasm was highly commendable. The whole outreach programme was chained with
the main event of this year ‘Optics Fair’ in which all these fourteen schools participated. Each
school came up with their junior and senior level working projects based on optics.
It was a real pleasure to see the innovation and the joy amongst the students as well as their
teachers.
It is always nice to see student’s enthusiasm about learning new things and that is what exactly
happened in our workshop on LabVIEW.
The Workshop on LabVIEW proved out to be a really fascinating and joyful experience for
every one of us and I really would like thank each and every student member for putting all sheer
efforts in spreading the light amongst the society.
This fast paced development that our chapter witnessed could not have been possible without the
tireless efforts by our faculty advisor Dr. Amit Garg. It was his sheer hard work whose fruits we
all are still savoring.

WORKSHOP ON LabVIEW and Data Acquisition
05 and 06th
October 2012
University of Delhi at ANDC SPIE student chapter organized a two day workshop on
‘LabVIEW and Data Acquisition’ on 05th
and 06th
October, 2012. The workshop was attended
by 50 students (Physics, Electronics and Physical Science with Electronics Department).
Special Attention was paid to Virtual Instrumentation and LabVIEW environment. Students were
made aware of various elements of LabVIEW programs and advanced data flow. They were also
taught how to develop graphical interface in LabVIEW.
There were specific LabVIEW case studies through which students learnt large program
development and data acquisition with special emphasis on interfacing of Optics based
experiments.
Ms. Reena Sharma (Ex-teacher of Acharya Narendra Dev College and also a member of SPIE)
along with Dr. Amit Garg (SPIE faculty advisor) helped in smooth conduct of the workshop and
assisted the students at every place so that each and every topic becomes crystal clear in every
attendees mind.

OPTICS OUTREACH PROGRAMME
2012 Education Outreach Grant Recipient
Our student chapter has been selected to be one of the 25 organizations worldwide for SPIE
Education Outreach Grant to promote optics and photonics related education outreach projects.
The chapter received a grant of USD 5000 for this purpose. This grant was used to promote
optics through workshops and model making amongst the school students. The activities under
this grant that have been conducted were in two stages-
Stage-1: Workshops demonstrating various optics concepts and experiments on geometrical
optics, fiber optics, laser based experiments etc. were successfully conducted in the below listed
schools by our SPIE student chapter members in the month of October -December. During these
workshops, students handled the batches of students cumulating upto 140. The workshops were
very much cherished by the school students. Both teachers as well as students were in all praise
for the effort and requested to conduct more such programmes in future.
Stage-II: Optics based model competition was conducted at two levels- Junior (class VI-X) and
Senior Level (Class XI-XII) amongst the schools in which the workshops were organized. Each
school consenting for this programme was provided a grant of Rs. 2000/- to make one optics
based model in each category. 26 high quality models developed by 14 participating schools
were displayed in OPTICS FAIR, perhaps first of its kind in India, organized on 20th
December
2012 at Acharya Narendra Dev College. The models were evaluated by a separate jury of optics
experts for Junior and Senior category. Each participant and the teaching mentor were given
a telescope as a token of appreciation for their effort. Three prizes were awarded in each
category:
Junior Category: First: Rs. 1500/- + Fiber Optics Kit developed by our students
Second: Rs. 1000/- + Fiber Optics Kit developed by our students
Third: Rs. 500/-
Senior Category: First: Rs. 1500/- + Fiber Optics Kit developed by our students
Second: Rs. 1000/- + Fiber Optics Kit developed by our students
Third: Rs. 500/-

The mentor for the whole activity was Dr. Amit Garg, faculty Adviser, SPIE Student Chapter.
Our chapter members accomplished this mammoth task of demonstrating optics and related
experimental kits in fourteen different schools of Delhi. Since our chapter had around hundred
21 | P a g e
active chapter members thus they all were divided in various teams with a group leader for each
group.
These groups conducted their separate meetings and designed a framework for presenting the
experiments in the most efficient manner.
In this way our chapter was able to make its presence felt across Delhi and was also able to
successfully promote optics at school level.
The way our members gave their presentations, created an everlasting effect on the young minds
and made them aware of research possibilities in the future. These presentations also gave
students an insight about SPIE, its functioning, mechanism and role in development optics and
photonics.
