  • Method and Apparatus for Tuning Tabla like Hand-played Musical Drums

    Filed IN 465/KOL/2013

    Currently Tabla like instruments which require tuning to a fixed frequency of sound, use
    very classical mechanisms to hold the skin to the drum body. Hence to change the level
    of tightness and hence change the tuning of the drum, it takes a lot of physical effort and
    the use of hammer to tune it. Also the process is time taking. Due to this most Tabla
    players use multiple Tablas when in concert each pre-tuned to the frequency required for
    each song. Using our version of the…

    players use multiple Tablas when in concert each pre-tuned to the frequency required for
    each song. Using our version of the Tabla, the tuning process gets less involving both in
    time and effort. It can be tuned easily within 2 minutes.

Honors & Awards

  • Inferno

    -

    My Team were in the top 15 Participants in a robotics event in Kshitij out of around 350 participants. We had to build a manually controlled group of robots which can retrieve cylinders(considered as people) from buildings affected by fire, bring them to the safety zone and fight fire.

  • NightShift

    -

    Got 1st in NightShift competition conducted by Kshitij, Asia's biggest techno management fest.
    Nightshift is similar to junkyard wars on Discovery where we had to solve a design and construction problem, in the dead of the night. The ten-hour shift during the night lends the event its name.

  • National Talent Search Examination

    -

    One among the 300 candidates who cleared the all three NTSE exams in Astronomy, Physics and Chemistry in class 12th.
