The Department of Systems and Biomedical Engineering (SBME) at Cairo University proudly celebrates the achievement of two student teams from our Spring elective course, “Assistive Technology”, who earned 3^rd place (tie) in the IEEE CASS Student Design Competition, hosted by Nile University.

Their work highlights how assistive technology can support safer training, injury prevention, and performance optimization in sports.

Our congratulations to Team Tennisella (Lyan Mohsen, Rehab Marzouk, Basma Mohamad, Suhila Elmasry, Olivia Morkos), who developed a smart tennis monitoring system using sensor-embedded equipment and wearable sensing to provide real-time performance feedback via web and mobile platforms, and Team BlueLock (Ziad Mohamed, Andrawos Baheeg, Amro Fekry, Fady Osama, Mohamed Hagras), who developing a two-IMU coaching system that assesses hip and pelvis kinematics during weightlifting and provides real-time feedback to promote safe technique.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Dr. Aliaa Rehan Youssef for supervising the teams, and to Eng. Sara Habo for mentoring and supporting students during tutorials and practice sessions.

Congratulations again to both teams for their dedication, innovation, and excellent interdisciplinary integration of biomechanics, embedded systems, and digital health.
