Today we celebrated the 54th Convocation Day of @IITKanpur. It was a privilege to have Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji as the Chief Guest. Hon’ble Chief Minister Uttar Pradesh Shri Yogi Adityanath Ji was also present.
Hon’ble Prime Minister gave Doctor of Science (Honoris Causa) degrees to Prof Rohini M. Godbole , Shri Senapathy ‘Kris’ Gopalakrishnan and Pandit Ajoy Chakrabarty.

He also gave President's Gold Medal to Abhyuday Pandey and Ratan Swarup Memorial Prize to Yash Maheshwari. We would like to thank Shri Narendra Modi Ji for motivating and encouraging the students with his heart warming words.
He delivered a highly motivational speech which made the event a really rare event - a spontaneous standing ovation from the students after his speech.
@PMOIndia @narendramodi
Making sure that no one is left behind, Modi Ji surprised us all by his wish to meet all the students who could not attend this event in the auditorium due to limited capacity (following covid protocol) and we're watching the live streaming in L19 & L20 .
@PMOIndia @narendramodi
He also applauded the efforts @IITKanpur and inspired us to do more in the fields of research and startups to contribute more in the effort of an #AtmanirbharBharat. His presence and words will inspire us all to do more and more for the country continuously.
@IncubatorIITK
Once again, my best wishes to all the graduating students for a new beginning and a bright future. Special thanks to Dr K Radhakrishnan, our Chairman, Board of Governors, @IITKanpur for his continued guidance and mentorship.

Indian Institute of Astrophysics @IIABengaluru, an autonomous body under @IndiaDST, has played a crucial role in the #SuryaTilak Project at #Ayodhya. Sunlight was directed onto the forehead of Sri Ram Lalla at 12 noon on April 17, 2024, on the occasion of Sri #RamNavami in the Chaitra month, and this ritual will be repeated every year.Image
The team led by @IIABengaluru carried out calculations of the Sun's position, designed and optimized the optical system, and performed the integration and alignment at the site.
As the temple is not fully completed now, the IIA experts modified the design to suit the existing structure and performed image optimization. This design, with four mirrors and two lenses, was executed for the Surya Tilak.

Today, the medical robots have prohibitively high cost due to the deployment of numerous servo-motors for their operation. These motors also increase the size and weight of the robots significantly. Image
In order to reduce the cost, size & weight of the robots, Prof Bishakh Bhattacharya & his team has taken inspiration from human muscle structure and developed a new artificial muscle system using wires with memory which can generate at least three times more force per unit weight
The overall weight is also reduced to the one third of the original weight. This human like muscle system has the additional advantage of non-magnetic nature so that they can be used in MRI, CT Scanners and various surgical functions.
