A comprehensive movement analysis of stair climbing can help in the research of several rehabilitation methods. This research study provides the investigations and observations of a human’s lower extremity during ascent and descent walking at different inclinations. In addition to this, the analysis of stair ascent and descent can be useful in the design of private and public environments where stairways are employed. Several normal subjects ascended and descended a flight of stairs at similar inclinations for the study. Observations such as the subject’s starting position and reaching position, handrail usage, ascending and descending speed, foot position, knee position, body position, vision, and stuttering were noted; their psychological feel on the staircase, handrail material, and their problems were also discussed during the interview.

A world in which manufacturing on-demand is a reality might not be that far away, as the price of 3D printers is dramatically falling. With costs for lower-end plastic-printing machines having plummeted in the last few years, the technology is now on the cusp of becoming mainstream. At this rate, any designer could have a tabletop 3D printer and use rapid prototyping without wasting time making handmade prototypes, time that can be spent more productively. Product design, automobile design, or any design in general, along with the machine parts industry, healthcare, retail, and food, are some of the examples and predictions of how 3D printing will intersect with modern manufacturing. This will be an influential technology in the coming years. While a number of industries will see positive change, few will undergo as many drastic shifts and evolutions as manufacturing. We wanted to be a part of this revolution. We wanted to learn about the technology, processes, and future of product design. With that said, Imaginarium is India's largest rapid prototyping and rapid manufacturing centre. There’s no better place to start this journey than Imaginarium. With Imaginarium at the doorstep of our college, there was no second thought.

It is to design a standing frame for children that is inexpensive, has all the basic features, and could be used by all the children aged 16 to 18 months with cerebral palsy.

My shortlisted topic by the faculties is to design and create a new standing frame for children with cerebral palsy. The product should be used indoors.

Although the work should take into consideration all areas of the design process, particular attention should be paid to the functionality, aesthetics, and production cost of the proposed design concept. The Pinal solution should have a retail value of Rs. 10,000 or less.

I had a time period of 4 months to complete and submit this design brief. The primary presentation should be digital and include freehand sketches and final, realistic renderings.

Beekeeping is the maintenance of honey bee colonies, commonly in man-made hives, mainly for their honey. Among all the equipment that the beekeeper or apiarist uses, the most important one is the sting-proof suit (bee suit), as it prevents the beekeeper from getting stung. Unfortunately, little has changed in the design of the bee suit since the 1800s, especially in the Indian scenario.

In developed countries, beekeeper’s clothing and accessories are available in a variety of fabrics and garment styles to meet the diverse requirements and circumstances related to handling bees. In India, however, due to a lack of availability of protective clothing, beekeepers are suffering from the sting of bees physically as well as psychologically. A survey conducted by IIT Delhi shows that presently, beekeepers in India are using mainly their personal conventional clothes, like conventional pants and shirts, kurta pyjamas, simple shoes and socks, and a bee veil, in their profession. They have no or insufficient special clothing to fulfil their professional needs.
