Product Design and Development

A concept flying car and its ecosystem accommodating all the engineering possibilities. 

Portable sanitation kiosk with the following functionalities: 

1. Temperature check 

2. Automatic sanitiser dispenser

3. SPO2 level check 

4. Attendance check with QR code 

Lightweight QR code for exhibition organisers, to be used to scan the attendee tags.

90W UVC lamp 

Specifications: 

1. Switches ON only when no human presence is detected 

2. UVC lamp switches OFF within 1 sec of detecting human presence 

3. On-time/ Exposure time is decided by the volume of the room to be disinfected 

Touchless sanitiser dispenser, the sanitiser liquid is dispensed automatically when the hand is placed below the nozzle. Designed to fit any neck size 500ml bottle

The diamonds sorting container with better form and product appeal.

A timer cap that fits on a standard 500ml plastic cold drink bottle, indicates 45 mins in vertical orientation and 15min in horizontal, without any electronics. 

A pill bottle developed adhering to the Indian pharma industry standards. We started by selecting a suitable metal cap that was mass-produced specifically for pharma products. Then designed a bottle suitable for blow moulding. 

Captures distant sounds, like bird calls, field audio for sports broadcasting etc.
 

A sleek wireless design with a certified fingerprint sensor can securely transfer fingerprint data wirelessly to mobile devices for convenient biometric authentication, identification and enrollment.

Designed to inspire a sense of wonder with metal 3d printing technology. 

When 2 people wearing the beacon come within 6ft of each other, the beacon starts buzzing. The beacon also tracks if the user is in the specified area. 

Sanitation kiosk for schools. It checks temperature, dispenses hand sanitiser, 66W UVC chamber to sanitise any belongings, marks attendance, also logs data and alerts teachers and parents via email.    

When installed in series with a load like light or fan, it will continuously measure the energy drawn. The user could program the device to switch after a certain amount of energy consumption. The user could also use the device to remotely switch ON/OFF the loads. 

Battery pack designed to last 1.5 times the nominal life of a cell via effective cooling strategy.

Structure designed for VR cricket game to be assembled on site

A 360 deg servo motor driven SCARA robot, using a bevel gearing mechanism to reduce the footprint and weight. 

Inspired by spring-loaded safety valves in boilers, we designed a similar light version of the mechanism that presses down due to the weight of the vessel and allow gas to flow with minimum pressure drop. 

A motorised remote-operated rescue float allows a lifeguard to reach faster to any potential drowning victim. 

Designed a fixed-wing VTOL for land surveying payloads 

Exploration of propeller type and profile for a flying car. We reversed gathered data from the existing 2 blade propeller, extrapolated the learning to 3 blade open profile. The same blade profile was prototyped and tested for multiple configurations. 

Design a system for an open-air architectural installation, with closely spaced steel bird structures mounted on a pole of max length 18ft. Optimized the design adhering to IS 875:Part 3 wind load codes.

Developed an automated design for a gold refining pilot plant with a raw material processing capacity of 10kg, 5kg and 2kg 

Designed and developed parametric models for various diamond shape collets. Optimized the machining time and trained the personnel to operate parametric models and CAM software.

Optimized the design process and developed a standard operating procedure for resin casting using silicone rubber moulds for imitation jewellery. 

Designed a pressure dilute phase pneumatic conveying system for the powder-based 3D printing process.

Conducted extensive dyeing trials, to discover the exact dye type and devised a standard operating procedure for dyeing SLS 3D printed nylon up to colour depth penetration of 0.2mm 

Developed a petrol engine test rig to conduct experiments on the engine with a modified camshaft that enables internal exhaust gas circulation iEGR

Developed an activated charcoal scrubber to neutralize fume from a production reaction hood. Post fabrication conducted trials to validate air velocities at the suction and blower end of each drawer. Reassessed the blower fan design for the multi-utility of the rubber. 

Developed a manoeuvring thruster for an underwater drone that generates 7.8kg of push.

Designed a pressure vessel system for dyeing 3d printed nylon parts which increase the colour depth penetration and better colour fastness. 

Inspired by the paint dispenser, the proposed gravimetric dispenser machine stores and dispenses the accurate quantity of casting resin under safe conditions which also avoids wastage. 

The inert gas cooling chamber designed for uniform cooling of the part cake of a powder-based 3D printer.

Study of boundary layer interaction of flow between tesla turbine discs for multiple disc geometry and configuration. Flow experiments were conducted by reiterating the disc designs and number + angle of the inlet nozzle to optimize the boundary layer viscosity to generate higher rpm. 

A turbine generator was developed to investigate the usage of flow in a Parshall flume type open channel for power generation.

Design optimization of a paint booth to eliminate atomize floating particle and paint dust accumulation.

For the sample air filter, we had to come up with a faster method of pleating the media, which could accommodate most of our air filter media sizes. Frugally developed a manually operated pleating machine. 

Cam analysis apparatus was designed for high RPM and higher load experimental conditions with added features of adjusting the spring stiffness and weight loading. Each of the support members is machined and heat treated. The overall weight of the assembly is increased to reduce the vibration for an accurate result.
