What do you think is a robot?


The word robot originally was supposed to mean a slave It is a machine which performs a variety of tasks, either using manual external control or intelligent automation A Puma being controlled externally or a ASIMOV trying to kick a football are all robots

Robotics is a multi disciplinary field of engineering encompassing the vistas of


Mechanical design Electronic control Artificial Intelligence

What Is RobotIcs ?

It finds its uses in all aspects of our life whether it is using an automated vacuum cleaner or when we are dreaming of exploring the Red planet and setting up a human colony there Copyright Robotix Team, IIT Kharagpur

ROBOTIX in IIT KHARAGPUR


Our domain spans artificial intelligence, manually controlled machines and self-controlled autonomous robots. Our aim is to encourage automation and intelligent robotics among students in India and help students pursue careers in Robotics. Our core values are aimed at developing a quality focused technical event while exploring new vistas.

ROBOTIX An Overview
ROBOTIX is the national level Robot Design competition of IIT Kharagpur ROBOTIX was started in 2001, with the Technical festival IDEON, as an in-house robotics competition, with a modest participation of 10 teams Since the humble start Robotix has grown as an event, in both quality of participation and number of teams and colleges participating

Robotix - 2005
550 Participants 220 Teams 45 Colleges 5 Events
Robotix: Indias largest robotics competition

Looking to the future:

ROBOTIX 2006
International Participation $ prize money Workshops outside IIT Kharagpur
Science City, Kolkata
Birla Institute of Technology Mesra, Ranchi National Institute of Technology, Rourkela Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad National Institute of Technology, Durgapur

We want ROBOTIX to drive an Intelligent Technology Initiative among students in India
