Dear Sir,
IIT BOMBAY , INDIA will be organizing TECHNOLOGY FESTIVAL IN JANUARY
2008.PLEASE go through the mail and the attachment or else please tell
me who will be interested in your institute in this.

I am a junior undergraduate of Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay,
India. I wish to seek your help in conveying information about IIT
Bombay's Techfest in your university.
Techfest is IIT Bombay's Annual International Science and Technology
Festival, the biggest of its kind in Asia. Apart with providing
platform for students to listen to some of the most eminent
personalities around the world and showcasing some of the most awe-
inspiring exhibition, Techfest is well known for its technical
challenges and competitions.This year our major competions are as
follows

Full Throttle:Grand Prix. It demands the participants to build a
wireless remote controlled machine, powered ONLY by an IC Engine that
can complete a Cemented/Concrete Track in least possible time .
Building remote controlled cars, without the use of any readymade
mechanism is a task only true engineers can complete. It promises to
be a challenge for ace builders as well as drivers, with a cool $1250
reward to take away.

Micromouse: It demands the participants to build an autonomous self
contained machine designed to get to the centre of a maze in shortest
possible time. A Micromouse essentially comprises of a drive motor or
motors to move it; a steering and turning method; sensors to detect
the
presence or absence of maze walls; sensors or control logic to oversee
the action of the rest and keep the vehicle 'on track' or to solve the
maze; batteries to provide power .It comes with a prize money of
$1000.

Pixel:Build a computer controlled navigator that, with the help of an
overhead/on-board camera and a computer, moves 6 balls of three
different specified colours into similar three distinct coloured
holes.This one comes with a $1000 prize money too.

code
that competes in a futuristic space game to conquer planets against
another code ($250 prize money).

Apart from these we also have a lot of
competitions,workshops,lectures,exhibitions and a lot more.
Please forward this mail to all the students in your university who
