Creativity and Innovation are buzz words for the younger generation. For Kushal N Seerianhalli this is hobby. His unique Hi-Tech Robotic tanker says it all.
Kushal N S student of S.D.M. College Of Engineering and technology studying in final year E&C DEPT. He pursued his hobby by rigorously. The rewards came in heap. Kushal N S has won 1st place in an International Level Robotic Competition held in Ontario Science Centre, Toronto, Canada. Also, Kushal N S becomes the 1st Asian to win the 1st prize in the history of Ontario science centre, Canada. The competition was held on 19th and 20th of November 2005. There were participant from many countries especially from U.S.A and Canada. The competition was open to all ages and industries, there was a competitor from Iran of age 47.The award was declared based on voting system, according to which well qualified person was given right to vote the robot which was Innovative ,Creative and Interesting. By this Kushal N S won the competition with a lead of 32 votes creating an history.
Before to this Kushal N S has Bagged two 1ST prize in project presentation at MERG-05, an International conference on Information and Technology held at Bhimavarum, Eleven 1ST prize in National level competition in different states.Also, won BEST PROJECT AWARD-05,in Hosur. He also participated in Singapore robotic game-2005,held at SINGAPORE. Kushal has also defeated a robot called POOCHI in Chennai, which has a record of winning 4th place in an International conference held at Nogoya University JAPAN. The poochi has also participated in an International Conference held at New-Zealand.
Kushal has built as many as 8 ?robots as a part of his hobby. Dr D Veerendra Heggade had also presented one lakh rupees as a gesture of encouragement and travel expenditure to Cannada.

My robot will counter every missile that Pakistan tests," says N.S. Kushal, a student of S.D.M. Engineering College, Karnataka. Kushal's `Hi-tech robotic tanker' was one of the projects displayed at `Exhivision `06', the national level technical project organised by the Electronic and Communication Engineering (ECE) Association of Anna University, this past week.
Demonstrating the mechanism involved in his project, Kushal explains: "The robotic tank will be connected to a server, which can be accessed online from a computer in any part of the world. The tank can be made to move in different directions," adding, "we have also incorporated the anti-missile launcher system, which will sense and transmit radiations given out by a missile launched by an enemy country." Guruprasad S. Kulkarni, B.V.B College of Engineering, Karnataka, helped Kushal with the software. The latter comes from an army background and has received several national and international awards for this project. "My dream is to get into the Indian army and operate a real tank like this," he says. Another team from PSG Tech, Coimbatore, had come with a software for a scientific digital calculator, which would incorporate matrices (4 x 5 and 5 x 5) and simultaneous equations with four unknowns.
Final-year students short-listed about 58 projects from nearly 80 registrations. Hundreds of students from various colleges all over India participated in the technical fest. Besides these, a couple of host projects done by students of Anna University were displayed. Second year students attempted an e-room where all operations would be digital. Those in thethird year had made a voice-controllable robot that would respond to oral commands. As part of the fest, several technical sessions including lectures and interactive discussions with members from the academia and industry were organised.
