The students of KLE Society’s College of Engineering & Technology, Belgaum, have once again made their institution and parents proud by winning the “Project of the Year” award in the 30th exhibition held in the city on August 17 and 18.
The project titled “Sign Language Tutor” was selected among 147 entries from 50 engineering colleges exhibited in the two-day State- level event organised by the Karnataka State Council of Science & Technology (KSCST). The Vice-Chancellor of Visvesvaraya Technological University, H.P. Khincha, presented the award.
Four students — Neelesh Narvekar, Ashwin Chougule, Sandesh Shanbhag and Vijaylaxmi Ulvekar — of the Department of Electronics and Communications of KLESECT carried out the work under the able guidance of their teacher V. R. Bagali.
The objective was to develop a product that efficiently translated movement of fingers into sign language.
