AEROVISION

Teams compete with each other to showcase their professional skills flying drones and exhibit its features. Each team consist of a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 members. The teams has to bring their own drones, controllers and spare parts. The competition focuses on following areas:

Piloting Teamwork:- Students pilot drones. Two teams fly together to maximize their score.

Flight Skills Challenge:- Drone operated by students should be entirely autonomous. Each team competes alone to score as many points as possible.

Piloting Skills Challenge:- Students pilot Drones to fly through an obstacle course. Each team competes alone to score as many points as possible.

Traffic and Obstacle Detection:- Drones must navigate through an obstacle course, strategically avoiding obstacles and maneuvering amidst traffic from other team drones on the track.

In this competition participants will be given kits to build their own RC aircraft within the given time limits and compete with each other to test their aircraft’s capabilities. Each team consists of minimum of 3 and a maximum of 4 members. The challenge of building an aircraft from scratch will allow participants to learn and apply flight principles and control systems. The competition will focus on three key areas: stability of the aircraft, endurance, and aerobatics. These areas will test the participant’s ability to design and build aircraft that are not only stable but also capable of performing complex maneuvers. The competition mainly focuses on following areas:-

Stability of the Aircraft.

Endurance.

Aerobatics

The glider competition is organized to allow students to utilize their knowledge of aircraft design and performance and to learn more about designing, testing, and building gliders and competing against other teams with each team consisting of 2 students. Each team will be given Glider Kits with all the necessary items to build a glider from scratch. Only one glider is allowed per team. Each teams have to test their Gliders and prize will be given based on “Best Design”, “Best Range” and “Best Endurance”.

Water Bottle Rocket combines the simple pleasure of watching in awe at the power of a compressed water, with the rather more subtle pleasure of mastering an engineering problem. The teams will be provided kits with necessary items to build a water bottle rocket. The teams can be solo or a maximum of two students must design and construct a water rocket with the given materials. The winning rocket will be the one that has the best result at achieving the greatest distance from a launch angle set by the organizer. No chemicals will be allowed to be added to the water used.

The "Design Wars on Dassault CATIA V6" is a that showcases the skills, creativity, and technical prowess of young designers and engineers. The competition will be conducted on Dassault System’s CATIA V6 software. The challenge involves utilizing the software to design a set of models, and points will be earned based on the precision of the final output. This competition is an individual event.

A MATLAB Hackathon is a competitive event where participants work to develop innovative solutions using the MATLAB platform. It's a test of creativity, coding, and problem-solving skills, all while racing against the clock. It is an individual event.

The "Aircraft Simulator" competition challenges participants to showcase their skills in aircraft taxiing, flying, landing, and operational procedures within the Microsoft Flight Simulator software. The event takes place in a life-size Airbus A380 cockpit housed by the department, with participants competing for excellence and the participant with highest point to be awarded.

The "Structural Loading Test on Truss Components" competition is an event where participants will have the opportunity to demonstrate their engineering prowess in designing and analyzing truss structures. The primary objective of this competition is to assess participants' ability to design and analyze truss components under varying loading conditions. Participants will be evaluated based on their Structural efficiency & Load-bearing capacity.

This aviation-themed treasure hunt offers a dynamic and interactive challenge. Participants will embark on a journey to uncover hidden clues, solve puzzles, and navigate through various locations to ultimately discover the coveted treasure. The competition will take place on the campus of Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology, where the team completing the hunt in the least amount of time will emerge as the winners.

The Technical Quiz on Aviation is designed to test the participant’s knowledge of aviation principles, technology, history, and current trends. It’s an individual event where participants can showcase their technical acumen and passion for aviation through a series of engaging and thought-provoking questions.

The “Paper Plane Fly-Off” is not just any ordinary competition; it's a chance to turn a simple sheet of paper into a flying masterpiece. Participants will craft their paper planes and then launch them into the sky, competing for distance, accuracy, and creativity. It's an opportunity to showcase your folding techniques, design innovation, and perhaps discover the perfect balance for the ultimate paper aircraft.
