Speaking on the occasion, Suhas Gopinath said, “During my college days, I worked on many similar projects. It is gratifying to see such innovation today. It is true that Artificial Intelligence (AI) has impacted the IT industry. However, employees must also understand this reality. Those who do not upgrade their skills face greater risks. Therefore, professionals should focus on skill development, while students should be given greater exposure to practical learning.”
Addressing the gathering, M.R. Kodandaram, Director of Gokula Education Foundation, said, “More than 1,700 projects were submitted for consideration in this two-day exhibition. Out of these, 446 projects were selected for display. Through their projects, students have demonstrated how various problems can be addressed with innovative solutions. Each project is unique and distinct. This exhibition serves as an excellent platform for students to showcase their skills and creativity.”
One of the major attractions of the exhibition was a Hybrid Bike Project, which operates on principles similar to those of hybrid cars. The project demonstrated how hybrid technology can be adapted for motorcycles. Other projects that drew significant attention included those related to rainwater conservation, AR/VR (Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality), smart grids, and several other emerging technologies.
Among those present at the event were Dr. N.V.R. Naidu, Principal of RIT; Dr. Parswanath H.V, Chief Executive (Engineering and General Sciences), Gokula Education Foundation, and Dr. Karisiddappa, Advisor to Gokula Education Foundation.
