Robotics Interest Group (RIG-NITC)
We are a group of 29 students, consisting of 2nd and 3rd year B.Tech students of NIT Calicut from different branches, deeply interested in robotics, who joined hands to acquire, share & enhance ideas and knowledge in Robotics.
We deal with Robotics in a professional manner, dealing with every aspect of our interest. We have learnt concepts like Inverse Kinematics, Dynamics, etc., about electrical and electronic components (and principles), Simulation Softwares and plan to apply the acquired knowledge to Robotics with assistance from the faculty, M.Tech Students & lab assistants. We devote our holidays and semester vacations to the project. Seeing our interest and dedication, Assistant Professor Sudheer AP, Faculty in-charge of Mechatronics lab, has taken us under his guidance. We have done the CAD modelling and Kinematic analysis (using Matlab) of 3 robots in our lab. We successfully made a Plotter Bot and our own Microcontroller Development Board, and are proceeding with a handful of other projects including fabrication of a Patentable Friction Gripper.
