If there is any true test for the skills of engineers, then ROBOTICS is the perfect field. It is a combination of Electronics, Mechanical Engineering and Artificial Intelligence(or rather the software). The true tests of the robotic skills can be seen at the ROBOGAMES conducted every year in California, USA.
BITSian team ACYUT had won a bronze medal last year and this year they have won 4 medals - 1 GOLD, 2 SILVER and 1 BRONZE, taking the total Indian tally to 7, all won by BITSians.You can check this year results here - ROBOGAMES 2010 RESULTS - Click Here. AcYut is India's First indigenously Developed Humanoid.
You can check ACYUT blog . I have seen this BOT in the lab and it is too good, especially when it dances to the tunes of our favorite song(dhoom machale :) ) and kicks the football perfectly into the goal. Unofortunately I could not get the videos of ACYUT version 3( ACYUT is in its 3 phase of development) . Maybe they will be out in a few days. Waiting for them
