eYantra Robotics Competition at IIT Bombay

The finals of IIT Bombay’s e-Yantra Robotics Competition (eYRC), which is in its fourth year, will be held in the campus from tomorrow.

The two-day event will witness teams from across the country competing for the coveted prize and the opportunity to intern at IIT Bombay, an official release said.

The e-Yantra project is sponsored by the Ministry of Human Resource Development, under the National Mission for Education through ICT, to provide hands-on learning infrastructure to students who have limited access to labs and mentors, it stated.

A competitive framework harnesses the intellectual ability of youngsters to create practical solutions to real problems, the release said.

The domains range across manufacturing, defence, smart homes, city maintenance and service industries. The competition engages students in project-based learning, where they solve problems using robots, it said.

The goal of the e-Yantra project is to create a cadre of engineers to address problems that a rapidly growing economy such as India is facing.
