Project Altair, the mars rover team of IUT was one of the key platforms in my undergrad life to learn team work, robotics and to showcase my skills and creativity. It's a team through which I fulfilled my long cherished dream of winning for Bangladesh in an International Platform.
As a robotics and a creative enthusiast at the same time, I was recruited in IUT Mars rover team Anirban in June, 2022. I worked there sincerely under my seniors. Then a new team, Project Altair was formed converging two mars rover teams of IUT. I primarily worked in the Mechanical and the creative sub-team as Senior Executive. In August 2024, I have been promoted to Team Lead of Creative in Project Altair.
My Achievement with this team satisfies me. I have participated in two ERC events (remote) , two IRDC events (remote) and IRC 2024 (onsite) at Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. In IRC 2024 we have won the "scientists of the future award" and overall 6th position among all the teams participated from different sides of the world.

IRC 2024
In January 2024, I along with total 14 team members participated in the International Rover Challenge 2024 held in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. It was a journey of 15 days and the competition was one week long. Our rover performed total 4 tasks, such as Instrument Deployment & Maintenance Operation, Autonomous Expedition, Reconnaissance and Delivery Operation, and Astrobiology Expedition. We couldn't gain any points in first two task, but we performed excellently in the astrobiology expedition and became the champion in this task, won the "Scientists of the future" award. Our team overall achieved 6th position. This result is undoubtedly the best result for any Bangladeshi Mars rover Team in History. In this win, I contributed working in both Mechanical and Creative sub-team, also being the drone operator which helped the team to get points in the RDO task.

With Project Altair, I have participated in remote edition in European Rover Challenge (ERC) 2023. Although I did not go to the onsite event, our team participated in the onsite event of ERC 2023 in Poland and stood in 17th position. In ERC 2024, the team participated only in remote the event. In International Rover Design Challenge (IRDC) 2023, our team achieved 10th position globally. Earlier before the creation of Project Altair, our team "IUT Mars Rover" participated in IRDC 2022 and ranked 13th position globally.

I and our formula racing car. After 3 years of hard work, finally our car was ready in November 2024
The Formula IUT, an FSAE racing team from my university which merges raw talent and unyielding ambition for global Formula Students and SAE competitions. This diverse team hails from varied STEM fields, blending engineering prowess, business acumen, and management finesse.
My immediate seniors, my batchmates including me are the founding members of this team. From initiating the idea to build an actual car, the whole journey was like a roller coaster ride with overcoming so many technical, financial and managerial difficulties. Initiating the idea from 2021, finally we completed our car in 2024. For me, in my first year days I saw it as just an idea, my university life went through the development of this project and finally in my fourth year we were able to showcase the completed running car.

In the final year, I handled the creative activities of the team as the creative manager.
In this project, I contributed to build the steering wheel of the vehicle. I along with my partner Khaja Arjani Ahamed designed the steering wheel and manufactured it by Laser cutting technology from the Shitol Industry Limited. Our steering mechanism also includes a quick release system to instantly make space for the driver to come out in emergency situations. Besides, As I liked videography, I made some contents for the team which helped to catch valuable sponsors. In fact, the main videos of Formula IUT till now is made by me. Later I became the creative manager and lead the juniors in the creative team.

I along with the help of my group mates have tried to build a four legged dog robot which can walk by it's legs. We have designed the body, 3D printed the parts, built the circuit, used arduino nano, servo motors, wires and successfully completed the physical project. As robotics is an expensive topic, within a short budget our dog robot can be used as a prototype and as a toy, but it can inspire similar impactful bigger projects in this domain. It was a capstone project, which was a 0.75 credit course in our seventh semester. We had to go through detailed planning, logistics, making physical prototype, in depth trial and error process, constant updates, poster presentation and report writing. Our project was successful, we controlled it with a software, it walked accordingly and the judges of the showcasing fest praised our project with satisfaction.
