Happy Memories - Science Exhibition during School Days :)

II Std - Coin Collection

It was not exactly a science project - anyway it was just to explain the currency system from the olden days to the modern one

III Std - Electrical SeeSaw

would swing by itself - had a fast fan on one side and two like pole facing magnets on the other - was to explain the effects of Newton's law and magnetic fields.

IV Std - Volcanoes

This was a fun experiment to work on ;-) - made a volcano with pot and clay - used vinegar and baking powder to show volcanic eruption :d was really fun

V Std - Hovercraft

Used a pressurised cylinder to pump air on to a Small hover craft model - slides over a glass surface

VI Std - Electroplating & Elctric Writing

Everybody does this at some point or another - did copper plating and used indicators (phenolphtalien - I think) for the electric writing

VII Std - Remote Control and Music Generator

Did this with my friend Arvind - actually I didnt know much in electronics then (and now)

VIII Std - Digital Clock

LED based Digital Clock with Alarm settings

IX Std - Digital Counters

Used a decade counter IC actually which was triggered whenever the beam falling on the LDR section was blocked

IX Std - Multiplexers

With Arvind - Digital 7 Segment Display Multiplexer

X Std - Wireless Transmission

MW,FM Transmission

X Std - Thermostat

A thermistor based Thermostat which will drive a relay - can control a 220v appliance

XI Std - Cybernetics

It was to show different types of sensors, control systems, digital signal transmission within a system, etc.

XI Std - Wireless Voice Transmission

It was a PLL based system using Infra Red as the transmission medium. Need Line of Sight. Gave pretty decent results.

XII Std - Robotics

An introductory project on Robotics - implementation, technology, controlling techniques
