“RoboForce“ is a two day intermediate level workshop that focuses on introducing participants to the world of robotics. The participants will learn about the emerging technologies like embedded systems, robot locomotion, Microcontroller Programming in this workshop. Along with this the participants will also be able to build microcontroller based line follower Robots. The activities will be performed with the programmable research platform specially designed by Appin Technology Lab. This platform includes microcontroller based board, programming tools, sensors. We believe the practical activities will enrich the Embedded C programming, PC hardware interfacing skills of the participants. The program gives its participants a heading by discussing with them the competitions in which they can participate.

The term open source describes practices in production and development that promote access to the end product's source materials. Some consider open source a philosophy, others consider it a pragmatic methodology. Now its your chance to have an inside view on the works and projects of OPEN SOURCE going in Assam. Lectures and presentations from well-renowned personalities. This workshop basically deals with providing you with an escalated platform to procure an insight of this field and the same is meant for the aspiring learners and developers. Now, its time to see “ BEHIND THE CODE ”.

Nanotechnology (sometimes shortened to "nanotech") is the study of manipulating matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally, nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometre in at least one dimension, and involves developing materials or devices possessing at least one dimension within that size. One nanometer (nm) is one billionth, or 10−9, of a meter. Quantum mechanical effects are very important at this scale, which is in the quantum realm.
HISTORY
In 1979, Drexler encountered Richard Feynman's talk "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom". This is the famous line which has inspired many generations of nanotechnologists.
Although nanotechnology is a relatively recent development in scientific research, the development of its central concepts happened over a longer period of time. The emergence of nanotechnology in the 1980s was caused by the convergence of experimental advances such as the invention of the scanning tunneling microscope in 1981.
In the early 2000s, the field was subject to growing public awareness and controversy, with prominent debates about both its potential implications, exemplified by the Royal Society's report on nanotechnology, as well as the feasibility of the applications envisioned by advocates of molecular nanotechnology.
The early 2000s also saw the beginnings of commercial applications of nanotechnology, although these were limited to bulk applications of nanomaterials, such as the Silver Nano platform for using silver nanoparticles as an antibacterial agent, nanoparticle-based transparent sunscreens, and carbon nanotubes for stain-resistant textiles.
