Robotics Club MNNIT is a diverse group of robotics enthusiasts from all the college departments, which runs under the umbrella of the Student Activity Centre of MNNIT Allahabad. Established in 2016, we are mainly concerned with building robots for academic purposes, competing at national events, or even building just out of imagination. This also puts us in frequent contact with a plethora of software, hardware, and technologies, like Computer Vision, Simulation Softwares (Gazebo, Pybullet, etc.), CAD Softwares, ROS, devising algorithms, path planning, Machine Learning, Microcontrollers, Kinematics to name just a few of many. Since its creation, this club has seen the completion of hundreds of projects, participated and won accolades in multiple national-level events, and organized various workshops with a decent footfall. Working closely with the industries, our people regularly acquire lucrative packages in tech giants, internships in IITs, and different tech companies. Our club has also been the birthplace of a startup TSAW in the drone sector, gaining ground in the field and as a company. We have a team of friendly experts equipped with all kinds of tutorials and workshops along with a compelling workspace to make you an integral part of this rapidly expanding world.
Research themes that we have worked upon:
Artificial Intelligence
Internet of Things
Mapping
Localization
Motion Planning
Kinematics
Power Source
Electronics
Softwares and Platforms
Design
Control
Others
What do our alumni say about us..?
Thanks to the club for everything. Being student president for the session 2018-19, we reimagined the whole way of doing things. We launched around 20+ projects, initiated ProSang, connected club projects to the companies, and launched my startup TSAW Drones during the event. The time at the club, with the members, transformed me a lot, taught me to dare things & do it uniquely, being fearless.
I joined the club in the first year thinking ki "Kuch to kar lete hain!" but it never left me. I have learned many things, from joining two wires to handle the disappointment that you get after working too hard on a project. It will not just teach you robotics; it will help you develop the most fundamental problem-solving ability and handle pressure and loss, which is natural in life.
I had never thought that an arbitrary decision of joining the Robotics club could tweak me by teaching such interdisciplinary things. Apart from the technical stuff, I could learn team management and the bliss of working altogether in a team. Participating in organizing them and being a team member to mentoring a team has played a crucial role in brushing me up to become a better version of myself. My reassuring seniors and ever-supportive colleagues made my journey even more beautiful. Indeed I am lucky enough to find my best friends for life through this platform. Of course, I had to go through some edgy, restless nights, but that's all that defines your current position. Hence I would never step back from owing the Robotics club for everything.
