Posted: Sat Apr 09, 2022 11:40 am
Attention 3rd and final year FD students
This is an opportunity for Self-motivated and Result-oriented students in 3rd and final year who are willing to can take projects/thesis on the following live topics that are identified and approved by NSNIS Patiala. You can register with any preferred faculty at BITS Pilani. Based on the need and progress of work, travel / other support for data collection/fabrication will be available to students based on the recommendation of a co-guide from NSNIS. You retain intellectual property rights jointly with BITS Pilani, SEA & NSNIS for any patentable work / publishable work.
Students can also seek assistance to identify suitable supervisors from among BITS Faculty and Co-guide from NSNIS, for the same please submit a hardcopy Thesis / Project application form to Mechanical Office before respective deadlines along with a separate note about the assistance you are seeking.
Project ideas for 2022
Area
Need statement
Description
Electro Mechanical
Reaction timer (touch the light with the sword (foil) for fencing)
A mannequin with sensors and light on it. If fencer touches them with sword, it can provide feedback in the form of different coloured light or sound and the timing.
Electro Chemical
Sweat analyser
To analyse the water and electrolyte loss during the training
App, Software
Vision technology (to calculate the total number of calories on plate using depth camera)
To calculate the number of calories in a pre-measured or calibrated plate or bowl. Can be based on AI or image-based technology
App, Software
AI technology to analysis posture
To use any platform like OpenCV, open pose etc., and give real time feedback to any sporting movement
App, Software
Block-Design Tests (IQ test)
Available in offline/ manual format. It is recommended to change the same to online platform
App, Software
Pass along test (convert into online / automated)
Available in offline/ manual format. It is recommended to change the same to online platform and ease of delivery.
Electro mechanical & vision based feedback
Timer (Rest period in strength & Conditioning / hypertrophy
A timing system which can be used for training session to monitor the rest time or bout time. It is also recommended, if the system can have feedback based correction regarding time taken for the exercise as well, can automatically adjust the time for rest.
App, Software
Virtual Reality for Rehab
Virtual programs like any activity or sensor-based video games, which can be used to perform sport specific exercises for rehabilitation.
Robotics, software
Ball throwing machine for Hockey, intelligent
A mechanism, robot type system can be prepared which is capable of projecting ball to the goal-keeper in the different tempo, height and angles as it is been hit by hockey stick. This can be use for training.
Electronics wearable
Insole to measure the force and pressure distribution
Wearable and wireless application-based system, that can be of different shoe size
Electronics wearable
RFID or other means to measure the lap and split time
RFID sensor can be placed on the surface of the track at pre desired distance to get specific timing of multiple athletics
