FAIX CONNECT Lecture Series 2026 | Lecture 1
The Faculty of Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security (FAIX), Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM), successfully launched the FAIX CONNECT Lecture Series 2026 with its inaugural lecture, "AI in Smart Cities, Energy & Sustainability," delivered by Dr. Saboor Shaik, Senior Lecturer, FAIX, UTeM, who is recognised among the Top 2% World Scientists (Stanford University & Elsevier โ Energy).
The lecture explored how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the future of smart cities through intelligent energy management, renewable energy integration, and sustainable building technologies. Participants gained valuable insights into AI applications in renewable energy forecasting, smart buildings, Net Zero Energy concepts, AI-powered smart glazing systems, Transparent Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV), and innovative Transparent Wood-Integrated Solar Photovoltaic technologies designed to support energy-efficient and low-carbon buildings.
The session also showcased cutting-edge research demonstrating how AI can optimise building performance, reduce energy consumption, minimise carbon emissions, and contribute to the development of smarter, greener, and more sustainable cities.
The Faculty extends its sincere appreciation to all participants who joined the session both physically and online. We look forward to welcoming everyone to the upcoming lectures in the FAIX CONNECT Lecture Series 2026, where knowledge, innovation, and impactful AI applications continue to shape the future.
