We attended the Research & Intellectual Expo organised by Zimbabwe’s Ministry of Higher and Tertiary Education. There was much to see and learn. Some of it information technology related and the other technology applications in Agriculture, food sciences and such.

We post below a few pictures we took at the event. We will follow up some interesting projects we saw at the event and post what we find here.

A solar parabolic trough made at the faculty of Agriculture at the University of Zimbabwe
A University of Zimbabwe Agricultural Engineering student explains how a sun tracker enables the solar parabolic trough to 'follow' the sun light
Another view of the sun tracker. This device uses water transfered from different containers to tracker the sun's movements. It then moves the solar parabolic trough (behind it) to face the sun.
