Diwakar Vaish, who set up his own training which is first of its kind in the field of humanoid robots. A humanoid robot is a robot with its body shape built to resemble that of the human body. A humanoid design might be for functional purposes, such as interacting with human tools and environments, for experimental purposes.

Diwakar has coordinated his robot with a device that reads mind and can sense what a person is thinking. He described “Lts say a person is thirsty, the robot will automatically get to know that the person is thirsty and will get a glass of water for that person who is wearing that mind sensing device”. Diwakar says, it is the future of the robotcs and everything in this world can be controlled by this technology.

Diwakar has been giving lecturs at various IITs at Roorkee, Kharagpur, Kanpur, IIT BHU, IIT Guwahati and VIT Vellore and Engineering colleges across the country. He started his own institute at the age of 18years. And has been working extensively and he wants to spread the knowledge of robotics to each every student in India.

The robots are equipped with a mind sensing device which can sense brain waves and know what the person wearing the device on his head wants to do next. He has also recently made an Unmanned Ground Vehicle named Versatile. This robot is one of its kind as it can change itws own shape according to the situations.

“I am running an institution named A-SET Robotics, which I started when i was 18 years old, back in 2010. Here we teach from 4th grade onwards till Ph.D students about Robotics and simultaniously we are researching over different robots”, informs Diwakar very modestly.

Children have an unusual curiosity of knowing how things work, even i had the same thing in my mind. But thanks to my parents who let me open and break almost all electronic equipments in my house. Wether it be telephone, TV, tape recorder or anything else. I just kept opening it.

When I grew up I used to compete in a lot of inter-shool robotics competition which led me to think deeply in this field. It was back in 2009 when i first won an international competition which took off all the fear of faliture from inside me. My parents were also confident about my skills till then. I asked them if they can lend me some money to import parts for a robot that i was thinking to build. Without a single hesitation they gave me all the support i needed. I programmed the robot and soon everything took off when that robot faced the camera of news channels and my journey started off. At that point it was like a dream. I never programmed the robot to be famous, it was just the curiosity that was there in me since childhood that gave me the inspiration of making it. The only support that was there with me at the point I was making the Robot was the moral support of parents. I thought to help other students who are just like me but are not able to get a platform. So i started an institute specially for robotics. Since then i have been teaching students as wells as researching on robots. I have been giving lectures to IIT’s, VIT, BIT, IIIT and other top institutions all across India.

Sri Vishnu Educational Society (SVES) established in 1992 by Late Padmabhushan Dr. BV Raju provides education in Engineering, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Dental Sciences, Computer Education and Management Studies. The three campuses that provide courses in Engineering are: 1- Padmasri Dr. BV Raju Institute of Technology (Narsapur, Greater Hyderabad), 2- Shri Vishnu College of Engineering for Women, Vishnu Institute of Technology (Bhimavaram) and 3- BVRIT Hyderabad College of Engineering for Women (Bachupally, Hyderabad). SVES is the only institution to receive the National Quality Trophy in Education from Indian Merchants of Commerce, AP (IMC) and the only Indian institution to receive Best in Class, Global Performance Excellency Award in Education from Asia Pacific Quality Organization (APQO).

The MoU provides for joint participation between Infotech and SVES on development projects. SVES will design certificate programs and further train Infotech’s engineers on key skills. The academic experts from the institute will also deliver guest lectures for the benefit of Infotech employees. This partnership also strengthens Infotech’s endeavor to create diversity as SVES also has dedicated engineering colleges for women students.

Infotech’s industry-academia initiative is a bilateral association with academic institutions to improve the quality of technical education and create a talent pool that is employable. To promote partnership with academia, Infotech has entered into MoUs with IIT Hyderabad, JNTU Kakinada, JNTU Hyderabad, CBIT Hyderabad, SNIST Hyderabad, CIPET Hyderabad, MLRIT Hyderabad, IARE Hyderabad and UPES Dehradun.
