Exhibitions at Nimbus 2010

 

Timber Trail "Paddling in Air"

Transporting goods to and from an elevated height is a basic requirement in hilly regions. Not just at elevated heights, but at times transportation of horticulture produce and other essential goods across the valleys and rivers is essential in higher Himalayan regions.
Timber trail as the name suggests is a mode of transport of goods. It is basically a ropeway which is a popular and cheap mode of transportation of goods in hilly areas using motors as drive. But here in this project we are replacing the electric motor by a complete mechanical driver so that the electricity constrained is detached which makes it a better option in rural areas where electricity is still a problem.

Motorama

It was a mini auto expo, which went a step ahead and included vehicle stripping. From the nifty bits of an internal combustion engine to the glamour of expo floor, we had it all.

Participant Companies: TATA, Hero Honda.
Stripping: "Hero Honda Hunk" as the expert dismantled it to the smallest bit.

Smart Sensors

Many times simple principles lie behind the most complex things in this world. Automatic doors, burglar alarms, fire alarms, face recognition systems; touch sensors- all these devices seem to be very complex. But their principle is nothing more than a simple circuits called the sensor.
SMART SENSORS was a demonstration of various types of sensors which have always fascinated us. Right from the simple clap sensor to the principle of automatic robots which can sense the obstacles-it’s all about the sensors. Lasting throughout the three days of NIMBUS’10, it showed all the aspects of the sensor technology and provided an insight to this very interesting field.

Concretion

The go-green future welcomes innovation of crib retaining walls. Concretion was an exploring display of this extravagant and rare piece of art, engineering and innovation.

Aeromodelling

On a windy day lets go flying

There may be no trees to rest on

There may be no clouds to ride

But we’ll have our wings and wind will be with us

That’s enough for me that’s enough for me

-Yoko Ono

For long men have envied birds... Nimbus feeled this never ending lust of men for flying through the demonstration of aero model as Amandeep Katria’s plane soared over everyone’s head giving a hard to be matched by any other dope.

Corona Discharge

This time at Nimbus 2010 Corona discharge was back...bigger and better than its previous avatar which no one had even seen...This Nimbus, all the folks saw lightening brought to earth, through artificially. All the fear, inspiration, awe!! Call it whatever but the beauty and majesty of its display still enthral many.

Green Hostel campaign

Save today survive tomorrow.

We've embarked on the beginning of the last days of the age of oil and the bottom of the oil barrel is now visible. Embrace the future and recognize the growing demand for a wide range of fuels or ignore reality and slowly, but surely, be left behind. So, next time when you fling the lights open or keep the tap running do remember that we can create a more sustainable, cleaner and safer world by making wiser energy choices. Keeping this feeling of green in our mind, Nimbus witnessed the first ever green hostel campaign, where the different hostels fought out for being the most eco-friendliest of the lot. As it is often said, Charity begins at home.

Defence Exhibition

Nimbus 2010 in association with N.C.C. 1 H.P. Naval Unit, Bilaspur presented the Defence Exhibition where engineers explored:
Naval Ship Models.

Remote Controlled Ship in artificial poundage.

Gunnery Display of dismantling of automated Rifles and Guns.
