Mumbai: The finals of IIT Bombay's e-Yantra Robotics Competition (eYRC), which is in its fourth year, will be held in the campus starting Friday. The two-day event will witness teams from across the country competing for the coveted prize and the opportunity to intern at IIT Bombay, an official release said.

The e-Yantra project is sponsored by the Ministry of Human Resource Development, under the National Mission for Education through ICT, to provide hands-on learning infrastructure to students who have limited access to labs and mentors, it stated. The theme for this year's eYRC is 'Smart Services'.

The competitors have to develop indigenous solutions using robotics for delivery services, hotel services, hazardous waste handling and emergency services. It aims to make students aware about how technology can be used to solve many problems that we face in our day-to-day lives and also provide a common platform to showcase their talent, the release said.
