Hi-tech innovations to be showcased at IIT-Delhi’s Open House this weekend


The seventh Open House of the Indian Institute of Technology-Delhi (IIT-D) will be organised on Saturday. It will feature research undertaken by members of the IIT community over the past year.
Since 2011 is also IIT-D’s golden jubilee year, this edition of Open House will feature some of the major technological contributions made by the institute in recent years. Around 400 projects by 1,000 IIT students will be on display at the Open House, titled I2 Tech 2011.
Among the technologies that will be on display on Saturday are the Social News Reader, which will expose online readers to news read by different social groups by identifying different clusters in the user’s online social network; the Bagbrella, which is essentially a hands-free umbrella in a bag; and a Body Posture Correction Alarm, which alerts the user when his/her posture is wrong.
