Joint Research Projects
Ongoing Projects
- Joint Research Projects with Catholicate College, Pathanamthitta
- AI-based Plant Disease Prediction Platforms
AI-based plant disease prediction can help farmers take preventative actions to reduce crop losses and maximize resource allocation. Some examples of these actions include: Adjusting planting schedules, Selecting disease-resistant crop varieties, Deploying biocontrol agents, and Optimizing the use of fertilizers and pesticides
- Algae Fancy Lamps
Decorative lighting based on aquatic algae will add an extra touch to the aesthetic style. Aquatic algae are photosynthetic organisms that live in water and are a vital part of aquatic ecosystems
- Agricultural Machinery Tools
Design and development of manual and motorised tools to help farmers
Our work aims to design a battery-operated agricultural machine which can perform essential plantation process with minimal effort
