IEEE Monthly Technical Talk by IEEE VIC IoT Community
OnlineThe Internet of Things (IoT) Security Trust Mark™ (STM) https://iotsecuritytrustmark.org is a third-party conformity assessment, certification and voluntary 'live' labelling scheme providing IoT users (consumers) with a recognisable level of assurance that IoT provider's (vendor/manufacturer) security claims about their product have been independently evaluated and conform with internationally established baseline security requirements. The talk will cover: History Key Tenets Reasons & Requirements Governance & Process International IoT Security Standards, Recommendations, Guidelines & Codes Alignment with IoT Security Trust Mark™ Baseline Requirements Next steps Biography Matt Tett is the Managing Director of Enex P/L. He is well known globally across industry and government as a very well connected, highly technical straight shooter. Effectively applying science to translating complex technology for the layperson, ensuring consumers receive what they are paying for. Matt is an Advisor and Subject Matter Expert (SME) for IoT Security Mark P/L who operate the global IoT Security Trust Mark™ (STM) Certification and voluntary labelling scheme.

Transforming the grid with pole-mounted batteries
OnlineIEEE Industry Application Society (IAS) VIC Chapter Technical Seminar United Energy is trailing 42 pole-mounted batteries. What is that I hear you ask? In simple terms we are in the process of installing 42 individual batteries on power poles to store and complement renewable energy. Registration: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/transforming-the-grid-with-pole-mounted-batteries-tickets-170273764413 The primary benefit of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is to provide network support to overloaded (capacity constrained) distribution transformer by supplying battery power when required. The trial has three core objectives: develop and manufacture a new and innovative pole-mounted BESS solution, prove that batteries connected on the low-voltage network can successfully defer or avoid network augmentation and confirm that this business model of value stacking network value and market revenue is scalable. This keynote will briefly mention the battery journey from initial ideation, formulating the business requirements, developing the technical specifications, engaging manufacturers, engineering design, factory acceptance testing, site installation, commissioning, operation, and the development of the asset management life-cycle strategy. We will also discuss AEMO FCAS requirements which are a key function of the batteries. And the implementation of utility Distributed Energy Resources (DER) using IEEE2030.5 Common Smart Inverter Profile (CSIP) API protocol.

Optimising stability and manoeuvrability in manual wheelchairs
OnlineSpeaker: Jesús Campo Uribe, Technical Manager, LivingLab (MedTechVic), Swinburne University of Technology Abstract: Optimising stability and manoeuvrability in manual wheelchairs within a multidisciplinary team - the project goal is to develop a device and methodology to determine the seated position of a wheelchair user, through the calculation of the centre of gravity, to assess, monitor and potentially improve clinical practices and user outcomes at the Royal Melbourne Hospital's Specialist Wheelchair and Seating Clinic. This talk will discuss the approach to managing stability of the wheelchair by the Swinburne University of Technology team comprising members from the clinical, allied health and engineering professions. Location: Virtual Webinar; registration details to follow This event is a collaboration between the IEEE Victorian Section Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society (EMBS), and the Society for Medical & Biological Engineering Victoria.
