NIT students design eco-friendly vehicle

Their idea became innovation as soon as they materialized it. Hear it from the innovative minds of Dr BR Ambedkar National Institute of Technology (NIT) who made a human power vehicle which can be run like a cycle by paddling it.

A group of technocrat students of electronics and communication and mechanical engineering department have named the vehicle 'Anant'.
Based on the concept of vehicular stability, the students have designed the manual vehicle considering air pollution and wastage of petrol.
The team included Prabhakar Gupta, Pawan Kumar, Aashish Kumar, Akash Gupta, Avinash Pratap Singh, Dheeraj Kumar Singh, Atul Prashar, Ankur Vats, Shubham Goyal, Prateek Brar and Nikunj Garg along with associate professor and advisor Pramod Kumar.
“We have designed and fabricated the human powered vehicle. The special features of this vehicle are that this vehicle is driven only by human power. The comfort level of the driver has been kept in mind while designing it. The vehicle doesn't work with battery and fuel. Rather it runs manually by peddles,” said Nikunj Garg.
He added that the vehicle could be run on cratered roads. “For this we have used double wish bone suspension system and for safety issue, rollover protection system has also been implemented.”
“It is like a tricycle having gears and light weight aluminium alloy. Each and every part of the vehicle has been fabricated by us. We took 30 days to complete the vehicle. We have also used speedometer GPS receiver module arduino with console to get our position through satellite and programmed the arduino accordingly to get the speed more accurate than simple speedometers.
Another student added that they had used the dynamo to generate direct current using belt pulley arrangement with simple direct current motor.

Kota Topper Story: Shitikanth IIT JEE 2008 Topper

Image
I gave JEE in 2009 and used to hear about this "topper" guy from the 2nd floor of my hostel. Topper of A1. I didn't pay too much attention. Then one day after my dinner my friends asked me if I noticed who was sitting next to me during the meal. I said no. They said it was the same guy. I didn't care much there either. I saw him for the first time in a cricket field. The lean stick-figure boy who didn't speak much. He had a ball in his hand and a single electric pole was being used as the wicket. I was fielding. I saw him bowl and all my senses absorbed after that was the clattering sound of the ball on the pole. That's when I was introduced Sitikanth. And the stories began! Once during class, V K Bansal (THE BANSAL of Bansal Classes) told us a story of when 2 weeks before JEE Sitikanth came to him, dejected and confused. Saying he had nothing to do. Bansal Sir gave him the toughest integration problems he had, thinking this should be enough to keep him a

The Most Brilliant Students of Kota Ever

Anuj Nagpal(AIR 190):  This guy was the most intelligent person I ever met. In hostel, he was one of the most fun loving guys, he only used to do the assignments of mathematics (only because it was taught to us by the director of the coaching). Though I was not in his hostel but my closest friends were in his hostel and used to tell me all the stuff they did at night. Late night chats, discussion about random things (which had no relation with JEE at all). There was a time when all feared Nagpal and used to say "Nagpal is gonna come and he is going to spoil our full night." That guy was much different from all other people I have ever met.  He got an AIR 190 only because we weren't taught inorganic chemistry, else he would have got much better rank than this.  He is AIR190 in JEEAdv 2014, AIR190(State rank 2) in JEEMain 2014, BITSAT score-398, CBSE 12th %- 97.6. Rajdeep(AIR 1700 in first attempt, AIR 1200 in second attempt):  This was the coolest guy I ever met, studie

How much You can get by Selling your IIT JEE RANK ??

Shubham Tulsiani says This is quite a common practice among institutes so I would like to address the trends too apart from the personal experiences and I'll also write on one aspect the question didn't explicitly ask  - offers  before  JEE Pre-JEE (class 12th) I had a couple of 'offers' - Some people from Akash Institute came over to my place to 'gift' me books to help me prepare for JEE. All I had to do was - guess what - yes, sign a form ! I was amazed at how insistent they were and despite me saying I didnt need the books and wouldn't sign,  they made me keep the books. They then visited / called me about 5 more times to get my signature (until I finally returned the unused books on their last visit and told my hostel guard to not allow them back). I later learnt that they had been giving these 'gifts' to some of my (well performing) batchmates in Bansal Classes too and unfortunately a lot of them had signed up too. I was also on
