Abstract |
| 3. Fusion Software for NC Code Generation and Machining | Description: A student learns to produce NC code with the integral parts of mechanism details and tool library of an industrial part via Fusion software. Essentially a subject focused on the use of CM software, programming in G-code and basics of machining to be able to tackle practical problems.
Potential Impact: Progresses the art of computer aided engineering thanks to providing an effective and necessary way for the industrial machining processes and enhancing productivity and minimizing unnecessariness. |
Abstract |
| 4. Development of Tyre Maintenance and Operation App for Dumpers | Description: The app is developed for the control of tyre maintenance with the application of IIoT hardware blocks in high-capacity dumpers. The application shall also evaluate TKPH and tyre pressure thus extending the operational time of the tyre.
Potential Impact: Reduces maintenance and operational costs relating to mining dumper loss of tires due to a defect and improves safety during vehicle operation. |
Abstract |
| 5. AI-based Automated Defective Exhibit Identification System | Description: Propose a program for the early detection of defective exhibits in an exhibition dedicated to science using Sensor AI to make sure they work after repairing them.
Potential Impact: Provides an interactive experience to the visitors by in turning the interactive exhibits on most of the time and not on maintenance turnaround as well as improving learning outcomes exploration. |
Abstract |
| 6. Student Innovation (Software) | Description: Propose Ideas that will be defining the appropriate means and manner of employing various technological resources for growth and development including the use of artificial intelligence to search for and find useful information.
Potential Impact: Contributes to the creation of intelligent programming that will enable effective resource placed technological development. |
Abstract |
| 7. Conversational Image Recognition Chatbot | Description: Create a system that merges natural language processing and image recognition into one application in a form of an online helper that explains pictures upon being asked by the user.
Potential Impact: Increases customer satisfaction and engagement through the use of an artificial intelligence visual bot that efficiently meets the users’ needs while at the same time operating as a complex query. |
Abstract |
| 8. AI-based Traffic Management System | Description: Create a smart computer system in Traffic Management for router users who use very busy roads. The system will control traffic light timings depending on the traffic.
Potential Impact: Through the instant and efficient management of traffic flow, the result is a decrease in traffic jams, an increase in road safety, and less fuel consumption and other emissions. |
Abstract |
| 9. Dynamic Route Rationalization Model Using AI/ML | Description: Create a smart algorithm that will optimize order routing for buses considering traffic conditions in units of time and in units of distance in order to avoid buses from being bunched and also for very long wait times.
Potential Impact: Enhances overall convenience within the public transportation sector by analyzing and updating existing bus routes in real time and increasing the dependability of service provision. |
Abstract |
| 10. Online Issuance of Caste and Other Certificates with Real-Time Monitoring | Description: Better documentation management, coordination and execution of the issuance of caste and other certificates activities in the revenue department to eliminate certificates backlog.
Potential Impact: Ensures that the process of certificate issuance is timely even with improved publics resource use leading to fewer wait periods instead of hurrying up public service. |
