On April 16–17, 2025, Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology (PTIT) successfully organized the seminar titled “From 360° Video to Smart Urban Logistics with AI & Drone,” featuring Professor Sidi Mohammed Senouci, one of the world’s leading technology research experts, ranked among the top 2% most influential researchers globally by Stanford University.

The seminar attracted hundreds of students and experts, creating a vibrant and inspiring academic environment focused on cutting-edge technology trends in 360° video, artificial intelligence (AI), and drone logistics.

Key Topics

The seminar centered around two highly relevant themes:

1. Optimizing User Experience in 360° Video Streaming Systems via Machine Learning

Professor Senouci shared in-depth research on applying machine learning to optimize user experience in streaming 360° videos. This is an important trend as 360° videos become increasingly popular across entertainment, education, and media sectors.

2. Applications of Drones and Reinforcement Learning in Smart Urban Logistics

Professor Senouci also discussed the use of drones and reinforcement learning in smart urban logistics. This research unlocks great potential to optimize traffic and goods delivery systems in modern cities, helping reduce congestion and improve operational efficiency.

In-Depth Analysis and Practical Evidence

With extensive expertise, Professor Senouci provided detailed analyses and practical case studies from research and real-world deployments. His insights enabled PTIT students to access the latest advanced technologies while inspiring and motivating their academic and career journeys.

Students had the opportunity to engage directly with Professor Senouci through questions and discussions, fostering a rich and valuable academic exchange. The knowledge and skills gained from this seminar will serve as a strong foundation for students to further research, apply, and develop in advanced technology fields.

Seminar as a Source of Inspiration

The seminar not only enhanced students’ understanding of advanced technologies such as VR, AI, and drone logistics but also strongly inspired their learning and career development in modern technology sectors. The program created academic connections and laid a solid foundation for students’ futures.
