First year students Batch- 2022-26 (E&TC, R&A) fabricate Printed Circuit Boards(PCB) in Electronics & Telecommunication dept. for their project. Due to this they got information what is PCB? What is actual use of PCB, how to make negative film of Circuit Design, why clear track is necessary on PCB. This All things as well as importance of it they studied. They got full enjoy for PCB fabrication & they got all PCB manufacturing process like photo printing, dye developer, Etching process, etc. Herewith I am attaching some fabrication PCB photos.
Project: AGRIHAWK
Function: Agriculture Surveillance Drone (Plant Disease Detection)
Students of E&TC Aditya Rane, Pratham Talekar, Balajee Srinivasan, Satvik Sattenapalli ( Batch- 2020-24) made AGRIHAWK project Agriculture Surveillance Drone (Plant Disease Detection) for detection of any plant disease.
This project is useful for farmers because when any disease falls on plant it detect by this drone, & farmer will make treatment for it. Because of that farmer will get more production and disease less products.
