Kurukshetra '09

At last I'm into what i had been wanting to do for a long time - Technical writing[or simply writing about technical stuff :P]! And whats better than Kurukshetra to start with! Kurukshetra is the International Techno Management Festival of CEG. It attracts more than 15,000 participants from various countries. Last year's version was a huge success and this year it is expected to be bigger and better!


THE MAJOR EVENTS [The ones I like :D]

XCEED - The Xceed challenge, this year, comprises of Robotics events. One is the usual Line Tracer event and the other the most engaging Robo Soccer. Comprising of one autonomous and one manual event, Xceed is gonna be conducted at three centres - Pune, Bangalore and Hyderabad.

DALAL BULL - This is one of the much awaited events of Kurukshetra '09. Its nothing but a simulation of the stock market. The online version of this game has already started. Check out the Kurukshetra '09 website for details. The onsite event willl span over three days during the fest.

ROCKETRY - Build a multi-stage rocket propelled by used cola bottles[Plastic ones ofcourse!] - as simple as that! But when I started looking out for info on building a water rocket, I was simply taken aback by the technicalities involved in this field! I'll be soon writing an article on water rockets.

The things given above are just drops from the ocean of Kurukshetra '09. Visit www.kurukshetra.org.in and get the real taste of it!

Awaiting the battle of brains to begin!
