An Autonomous Robotics Workshop was conducted on 24th & 25th of Sep, 2009 in association with MITBOTS. MITBOTS, promoted by TECHNOCRACY IIT DELHI, is the national robotics champions team. They have specialization in the field of robotics and have trained around 5,000 technical students from all over the INDIA. The workshop was the stepping stone to ‘Indian Robotics League’ which is the biggest ever robotics competition being held in India. It is the rare and the wonderful opportunity to win prizes worth 20 lacs along with internship in US or Singapore. This extensive workshop was basically for beginners with the objective of encouraging them to enter into the world of robotics.
The team of MITBOTS conducting the workshop was headed by Mr. Ashish Goel. He discussed emerging technologies in the field of advanced electronics such as embedded systems, autonomous robotics and advance sensing technologies. He also made students work on specially designed kits and construct wired robots, Line Follower and Object Chaser. On the last day of workshop Mr. Ankit gave students the basic idea about Microcontrollers.The Workshop was attended by over 100 students from all branches in 1st,2nd and 3rd year of Dr.K.N.Modi Institute of Engg. and Technology and KNGD Engg. College.
The students actively participated in the competition based on the idea of covering the shortest distsance between six random points made on 3X3 cordinate system. The distance covering those six points was completed in just 19 seconds.
The winning team candidates are from 2nd year ECE branch namely:
Dhruvendra Sharma
Nitin Verma
Anuj Narang
Dharmedra Verma
Prashant Kumar
They were felicitated by Prof. R.K. Agarwal, Director of Dr.KNMIET on 4th of November, 2009.
The ESS Coordinators are:
Somkant Mishra
Mayank Mohan Dass
Ekansh Saxena
Indrapal Singh Prajapati
Akshya Lalchandani
Abhishek Porwal
Poornima Singh
Nidhi Gupta Jyoti Verma
Pooja Singh
These were also felicitated and applauded for their efforts. All in all, the workshop was a success and proved to be a milestone in exploring the dynamic field of robotics.
