Build a robot that can kick a ball into the opponent’s Goal Post. Use your creavity and come up with innovative mechanisms to smash the ball into the goalpost. The teams are encouraged to come up with innovative ideas for robots as long as they adhere to the menoned rules and guidelines. Fixtures will be made according to the number of teams. The Competition will be a Bracket style tournament. The exact structure will be revealed on spot. Each match will last for 10 minutes: 5 minutes per half.

Tech-a-thlon 2.0 consisted of 3 rounds. Info-a-thon: A general quiz on the G20 summit was conducted on Quizizz. It was a time-based quiz. Judging was done based on the number of correct and timely answers. At the end of round 1, parcipants with lower scores were eliminated. Debug-a-palooza: It was a debugging competition held on google forms, where the parcipants were tested on their knowledge of coding and its intricacies. Each parcipant was given a problem that either had an error or that did not produce the intended effect, they had to read and rewrite only a few lines of code to fix these problems. Code-a-thon: In this round parcipants were given various problems sorted according to their difficulty, they had to solve these problems with the best of their abilies keeping in mind the time and space complexity.

The Eta Kappa Nu (HKN) subchapter of BVPIEEE, after a long time, organized a successful live session, “How to write quality SOP”. The session was organized for prospective students to help them build a great SOP (statement of Purpose) for their applications for higher education abroad. The session was taken by Mr. Ankur Sharan of 4Track Learning, who guided students theoretically and practically on how to write SOP along with multiple examples.

BVPIEEE celebrated IEEE day in collaboration with BVICAM on the 7th and 8th of October,2022.

The event's main attraction was the hackathon, which was conducted on 7th October. 500+ students registered alone, in the hackathon itself, out of which 250+ students were invited to the premises for the event. The winners included 6 teams that were given huge cash prizes along with certificates and swags for every participant.

Besides the Hackathon, several non-Tech events namely AD-MAD, Poster making, Reel making, Book fair, Volleyball, Lucky draw, Nukkad Natak, Storytelling, Group Dance, Short film making, Digital Cartoon making, P2C, Debate, GD, Radio Jockeying, Photography, and CV writing were also held on the 7th and 8th of October collectively. Every participant was also given a participation certificate and cool swags. The winners got amazing cash prizes as well.

The event was a seminar led by Mr Harshit Gaur, who explained to the students about what ML and AI is all about, intriguing their interest in the domain. He then walked the students through a proper roadmap of how to begin their journey of AI and ML. A quiz was also conducted by BQC in the middle of the event, around the topics discussed by our speaker. We had three winners who were awarded goodies. Toward the end of the session, our speaker Also demonstrated real-time working ML AI projects that allowed the students to get a better understanding of how applied machine learning works.

This was an offline fun event organized by BVPIEEE to welcome the freshers with enthusiasm. The event included games like piconary, whisper challenge, musical chairs, tug of war , drowsy kickball, paper dance and some fun acvities like quiz and photo booth.

The IBM Watson, Elastic Stack- Search, Kibana and Beats, and Fundamentals of Neural Networks’ based hands-on workshops ensured the highest level of attendee engagement during the conference. Attendees were also enlightened about internship opportunities offered by DeepSight AI Labs, SocialCops and Incuspaze from the organisations’ representatives. With 4 keynote sessions, 14+ guest talks, lightning talks, 3 workshops, resume booth, and the highly engaging panel discussion, InnoviCon turned out to be a delightful opportunity for students and professionals to gather valuable insights into the recent technological trends and network with fellow attendees.

BVPIEEE RAS conducted a 5 days drone workshop series called Aurora: Painting the Sky, in collaboration with Makers and Drishti SIGs.
The workshop took place on 28.12.2018-4.01.2019 in the library. The focus of the workshop was to recreate the natural phenomena- aurora a.k.a. Northern lights using drones and light painting techniques and finally draw shapes, patterns and images in the sky. Siddhart Talia (Makers Head) along with Kshitij Sidana (RnD Head, RAS) initiated the workshop by explaining students about drones, the various components that go into its making and related concepts such as control algorithms and path planning. Kshitij then apprised the students about photography concepts like ISO, shutter speed, exposure and f-stop. The later days of the workshop witnessed the presence of E-cell Head, who inspired the students to use this knowledge and come up with solutions to everyday problems with the goal of building a start-up. Towards the end of the series, students implemented the concepts learnt and drew some images in the sky using the technique of light painting, accomplished by the use of drones having autonomous capabilities.
With a footfall of 64 attendees from different colleges, all geared up to apply the concepts learnt about 3D printing, architecture, project planning, drone delivery, transportation and various other fields, the workshop was a big success.

WIEHack, the 24-hour all-women hackathon was organized by BVPIEEE on 4-5th October, 2018. It got registrations from over 100 all-women teams pan India out of which 24 teams were shortlisted on the basis of their GitHub/LinkedIn Ids.Themed 'Build for India', the hackathon witnessed 80 women developers putting their creativity and development skills to test and coming up with ingenious solutions to social and economic concerns and safety.
