The Student Development Programme 4, on ‘FOUNDATION SKILL IN INTEGRATED PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT (FSIPD)’ began at 8.30 am, on 14th March 2019, at Smt. Rajalakshmi Seminar Hall, MVJCE. The SDP4 on FSIPD was conducted from 14th March 2019 to 16th March 2019 and on 30th March 2019, every day, in the campus. The progamme commenced on an auspicious note, with a video clip of the FSIPD Journey, right from 2016.
The occasion was graced by FSIPD student Trainers Mr. Ravi Bagdi (CSE) and Ms. Kanika (CSE). They shared their experience in SDP 1 and SDP 2.
Addressing the gathering, Prof. I. Manimozhi, (Associate Professor – Department of Computer Science Engineering) extended a hearty welcome to the staff members, students and participants of the programme. She shared her experience on faculty prototypes and student prototypes. She motivated the students to keep up the passion of learning, and doing the projects through various activities. She also emphasized on the collaboration of Industry and Academia, through projects.
Ms. Naveen B, Asst. Prof. (Mech.), explained that the core of Engineering is problem-solving, by giving real world examples. He addressed that the Student Development Programme is designed to look into these gaps and seek possible solutions. He has attended the product design workshop in NIT, and he acknowledged his skill-enrichment through this kind of development programme. Ms. Premalatha (EEE) stated that this SDP is a starting push, towards integrating different knowledge minds across various disciplines.
The Inauguration proceedings concluded with the division of the teams from different disciplines, by the FSIPD Trainers.
Speakers:
The SDP of Day 1 was covered under 5 Sessions. First 3 sessions were on making a project, and the next 2 sessions dealt with the project done.
The SDP aimed at setting the new standards for knowledge sharing between the industry and the educational institutions, and has contributed significantly towards strengthening the Product development as per industry standard.
The Speakers gave a brief overview on how the product is developed, and also on factors affecting product decision.
The forenoon session ended with ‘Cost of Defects’ and ‘Terms and Definitions of Requirement Engineering’
There was also a discussion on four case studies of Requirement Engineering by all the faculty members. After that, they were grouped into 4, and each group was given one case study to work on and present.
PESTLE analysis products are:
Speakers:
This SDP Program of Day 2 was also divided into 5 Sessions. The first 3 sessions were on making the voice of customers and in the next 2 sessions, the projects done were discussed.
The Topics that were covered:
Ms. Premalatha (EEE) mainly focused on System–Level Requirements and discussed about the Case Study: ‘Mr. BIN Project’.
Some of the responses from faculty members for the Case Study were listed out:
Further, a discussion was held on the topic ‘How do we reduce Ticketing Time?’ Some of the responses were:
The forenoon session ended with a discussion on the needs and features of ‘Vending Machines for Tickets’.
The topics covered were:
The Components of Subsystem of ‘Vending Machine for Tickets’ were discussed by all the faculty members. After this, the participants were divided into 5 groups, and each group was asked to explain a given Component on drawing sheets.
SRS prototypes are:
A quiz was conducted to identify the trademarks of various products and on their competitors and marketing challenges.
Speakers:
On Day 3, the SDP Program was covered under 4 Sessions. The first two sessions were on Design issues of Product Development. The third session was on Validations and Verifications. And the last session was on the proposal of the Product, done by MVJCE faculty members.
Morning Session: 8:30 am to 12:45 pm
The focus of the speakers in this session was mainly on ‘How to design the products, based on Industrial Design’. The following points were addressed:
There was also an intense discussion on the following Case Studies:
Speakers analyzed real time issues of all the products, and faculty members were also told to discuss the issues related to each product.
Some other concepts related to Industrial Designs that were discussed:
Speakers analyzed Real time issues of all products and faculty members were given a task to discuss the issues related to each product:
SOME OTHER CONCEPTS DISCUSSED RELATING TO INDUSTRIAL DESIGNS:
All the proposals were Reviewed and Accepted by the speakers, for the next level of design.

SAMPLE PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS
SHOCK WEAR:
The charge can be activated by a button which is in control of the wearer. The main idea of the jacket is to catch the offender off-guard and incapacitate him. Students took the concept of a stun gun, similar to the ones used by a policeman which can discharge electricity and catch a person off-guard. The principle is to momentarily shock the person into immobility, with a low-voltage pulse delivered between two electrodes. The idea was to make a piece of clothing that will give the girl or woman time to make a quick getaway, if assaulted. It also should be wearable as well as washable. The innovation is not new and was created way back, in 2004. However, the jacket is still awaiting a patent, with the apathetic response shown by leaders and a lack of action which can almost be termed disinterest. Such devices might come as the much-needed aid in times of trouble. The shocks, combined with a pepper spray, and the offender should learn his lesson! Here’s to women power!
Natural Refrigerator:
All-Natural clay refrigerator is a flagship product by Mitti Cool, a venture that is rooted in the concept of going back to our roots, to revisit a healthier, more robust lifestyle. Made from terracotta clay, the Mitti Cool refrigerator is ideal for storing water, milk, fruits and vegetables. This award-winning product provides efficient cooling, without electricity.
Bamboo Reinforced Concrete
Bamboo reinforced concrete construction follows the same design, mix proportions and construction techniques as used for steel reinforced. Just that steel reinforcement is replaced by bamboo reinforcement. Nature’s material, bamboo has been widely used for many purposes.
Mainly as a strength bearing material, it has been used for building shelters, from earlier times. Bamboo is used for scaffolding works, formwork supporting stands etc. in building construction works. These are limited to medium-large projects. Even though bamboo has existed from centuries, bamboo as reinforcement material is an innovation in the Civil Engineering construction field. This innovation was based on Clemson’s study that has been conducted in Clemson Agricultural College. Bamboo is biodegradable and renewable in nature. It is energy efficient, as it is of natural origin, and environmentally sustainable by nature. These properties have made it a good option for use in the construction field, for centuries.
Smart Swatch Bharath Waste Management System
Underground waste management pneumatic refuse collection means that refuse is transported underground over long distances in pipes to a collection station, where it is compacted in closed containers. A pneumatic refuse collection system uses air to transport the waste. The air flow is generated by exhausters, creating a negative pressure in the pipe system. The air enters the pipes at atmospheric pressure, entraps the solid waste, and conveys it to the collection station.
A stationary pneumatic refuse collection system can handle multiple waste types concurrently. One refuse chute is used for each separate waste stream. Typically, two to four separate waste streams are handled in a pneumatic refuse system, using the same transport pipe network. In the collection station, each waste stream is directed to a designated container. By collecting each waste type separately, the system safeguards that waste and recyclables do not get mixed in the system.
The major objectives of a stationary pneumatic refuse collection system are:
