Questions from Technical Festivals

1. MAKE A PURE MECHANICAL AUTOMATIC BURGLAR ALARM TO PROTECT AREA 50*50 CM(e.g you can make a fence and alarm should be raised if unauthorised person tries to cross it) AND COUNT AND SHOW THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED PEOPLE GOING INSIDE,SYSTEM SHOULD DETECT AUTHORISED PEOPLE GOING INSIDE MAKING THEM GIVE SOME INPUT BEFORE ENTERING(e.g pressing or cutting something as input)
Evaluation Criteria : (A)completion of task
(B)sensitivity of system
(C)innovation and complexity
(D)creativity
(E)cost of setup

2. MAKE A MECHANICAL CRANE TO SWAP TWO OBJECTS PLACED 100 CM APART AND AT AN ELEVATION DIFFERENCE OF 30 CM PROVIDED WITH HOOKS. OBJECTS WILL BE OF SIZE 12*12*12 CM MAXIMUM ,WEIGHT 0.5 KG.
Evaluation Criteria : (A)EXTENT OF COMPLETION OF TASK
(B)DEGREE OF AUTOMATION
(C)COMPLEXITY AND INNOVATION
(D)INNOVATION AND ORIGINALITY OF IDEA
(E)CREATIVITY
(F)COST OF SETUP

3. MAKE A CONTRAPTION WITH AS MANY ENERGY CONVERSIONS AS POSSIBLE WITHIN 3 MINUTES.

4. MAKE A PURE MECHANICAL AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE OF DIMENSION 50CMX50CM ABLE TO TRAVEL ON ITS OWN DUE TO A SINGAL INITIAL INPUT(ENERGY STORED IN MECHANICAL FORM) .POWER SHOULD INITIALLY COME TO AN AUXILLARY AXLE AND THEN SHOULD BE DIVIDED IN TWO PARTS FOR LEFT SIDE AND RIGHT SIDE WHEELS PREFERRABLY BY TWO DIFERENT MECHANISMS (E.G ONE BELT AND PULLY OTHER GEAR MECHANISM ).LEFT SIDE AND RIGHT SIDE WHEELS SHOULD BE INDEPENDENT OF EACH OTHER.
Evaluation Criteria : A) DISTANCE TRAVELLED
C) WHETHER USED TWO DIFFERENT MECHANISM OR NOT
B) STRAIGHTNESS OF PATH TRAVELLED WHICH IN TURN WILL DEPEND ON HOW WELL YOU SYNCHRONISE THE POWER TRANSMISSION TO THE TWO SIDES OF WHEELS
C) CREATIVITY
D) ORIGINALITY OF IDEA
E) COMPLEXITY

5. MAKE A PURE MECHANICAL DEVICE TO TURN, COUNT AND SHOW THE NUMBER OF PAGES (AT LEAST 20 PAGES ) OF A BOOK OF STANDARD SIZE(containing 500 pages approx.).
NOTE: DEVICE ABLE TO TURN PAGES BACK AS WELL WILL BE GIVEN EXTRA POINTS.
Evaluation Criteria : a) Completion of task
b) Innovation and complexity
c) Creativity
d) Ability to turn back
e) Newness of idea
f) Cost of setup
