The participants have to submit a single PDF or Microsoft Word document containing the following during the event in hard copy and soft copy under heading “OXxxxx” where “xxxx” is the unique Team ID given at the time of registration: Title of the ProjectFunctionality (Tasks that your hardware or software is supposed to do)Areas of application(if any).List of hardware components used.List of different softwares used(if any).Labeled schematic diagram including the circuit diagrams of self-designed components. All readymade components should be shown as black boxes.Steps of construction, preferably make a flowchart of the proposed plan of construction.Innovation of the product.Proposed Budget.The department which should judge its entry.
The participants will have to come with the final working models.
Any special software or hardware required to run their hardware effectively should be arranged for by the participants themselves.
Judge's decision will be final and binding.
The teams will have to exhibit their model on the same day.
Achieved target: How far is the hardware able to achieve desired objective?
Functionality: The various functions that the hardware performs and the complexity of each function.
Design optimization: Minimization of critical design parameters like power consumption, space, frictional losses, heat losses and other leakages without adversely affecting its operation/working.
Hardware utilization: Effective & extensive use of hardware to perform desired functions.
Presentation: This part carries points for the posters that the teams prepare and the question answer round with the judges.
Optional judging parameters: The teams have to choose 4 parameters from this pool which suits their hardware: Cost effectiveness & commercial viabilityUser friendlinessUpgradeabilityPortabilityInnovation in application (clubbing of already existing functions to increase the application and use of the resultant hardware)Advancement in scientific & technological forefrontDesign simplicityUse in practical lifeIndustrial production (ease in mass manufacture)
