FIELD TRIP TO IIT (ISM) DHANBAD

---

It was a field trip organized by MTT-S IEEE Asansol Engineering College Student Branch Chapter to IIT

(ISM) DHANBAD. The field trip was organized on the 22th of September, 2023. The mode of transport from

Asansol to Dhanbad was by Varanasi MEMU Express. The boarding time from Asansol was 6:40 a.m. in the

morning and the arrival time in Dhanbad was 8:10 a.m. in the morning.

Upon our arrival at the ISM Dhanbad campus, we were initially escorted to the NVCTI building, which stands

for the Naresh Vashisht Centre for Tinkering & Innovation.

We initiated our journey by visiting the Electronic and IoT Lab, where we immersed ourselves in the realm of

electronics and the Internet of Things (IoT). During our time in the lab, we had the opportunity to observe

various machines which are used in different industry level expertise. Additionally, we encountered various

components, including different types of Arduino boards, Sonar sensors, and digital display boards of high cost,

and the most important microprocessor – RASPBERRY PI. This enriching experience significantly enhanced

our comprehension of contemporary electronics and IoT technologies. Furthermore, in these labs, we not only

delved into the intricacies of drone manufacturing but also gained valuable insights into their operation and

applications. In these labs, various students from different schools collaborated on numerous small projects.

Additionally, sir took the initiative to explain some project's creation and practical applications to the rest of the

group. This collaborative environment fostered a rich exchange of ideas and knowledge, enhancing our overall

learning experience.

During our visit to the second lab, which was dedicated to 3-D printing, we gained valuable insights into the

process of creating specific 3-D objects. We had the opportunity to observe and learn about three different types

of 3-D printing machines. Our teacher went the extra mile by demonstrating the live printing process directly

from one of the 3D printers, offering us a firsthand experience of how objects take shape layer by layer in real

time. This practical demonstration significantly enhanced our comprehension of the 3D printing workflow.

Notably, within this lab, we were introduced to a multitude of projects completed by fellow students, where 3 -

D printers played a pivotal role in bringing their creations to life. Our teacher's proactive involvement in

explaining these projects further enriched our understanding of the innovative possibilities that 3-D printing

technology offers.

During our third lab visit, we explored the Robotics and Automation lab. There, we encountered various

machines and setups, including the Actuator Training Setup and the Sensor and IoT Training Setup, both of

which were supplied by the German company BECKHOFF. Additionally, we had the opportunity to observe a

Hexapod Robot Kit and learn about pneumatic and electro-pneumatic machines. Our hosts provided detailed

explanations about the functionality and applications of these machines.

We then visited the Department of Electronic Engineering, where Prof. (Dr.) Shushrut Das explained radiation

patterns and the Anechoic chamber to us. Our visit led us to the remarkable anechoic chamber, meticulously

engineered to create an environment where external sound finds no entry. At its core, the chamber boasts walls

adorned with pyramid-shaped sound absorbers. These unique structures serve as the first line of defence against

external noise, expertly dissipating and preventing any intrusion
