Product development talk @SVIT

This post first appeared on PhotoElectricChefs.

FSMK conducted a 5-day residential workshop at SVIT during the last days of January. We were invited to give a talk on product development using free hardware.

The talk was attended by around 150 students from various colleges spread across Karnataka, and some from outside Karnataka too.

Aravind started the talk by explaining how a basic hobby idea can be made and then grown into a complete product. He explained this with the evolution of the basic obstacle avoider bot to a remote controlled one, and then to a gesture-based bot.

The audience seemed to be enthralled by the demos given, and hopefully they have been inspired to work on their own and contribute to the community.
