Technex 2012 ends at IT-BHU

Updated on: Wednesday, January 18, 2012

The four-day annual techno-management festival 'Technex 2012' concluded on Tuesday with a spectacular laser show and final rounds of 'robo wars' at the Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University (IT-BHU).

While the breathtaking laser show featuring acrobatic performances by laser experts from Bangalore left the audience spellbound, the close finish of robo wars, in which IT-BHU robots upstaged the robots of Punjab University, also attracted the attention on the last day of the programme.

Earlier, the final rounds of Goldberg's Alley (passing through difficult terrain), Dash n Trounce (clearing blockages) and Aqua Combat (underwater robotics) also witnessed interesting tussles on the concluding day. The winners of Balvigyan (quiz show), Modex (model exhibition) and other events were also given prizes in the day.

Innovation guru David Wuttenburg delivered a motivational lecture on creativity. Professor R K Mandal, president, IT-Gymkhana, and other senior teachers were also present during the valedictory function.
