Sometimes, we don't realise that we are capable of changing the country, with our simple efforts. It might not seem like much to us, but our little commitment can spur up a series of changes.
I met a trio of engineers, who had the same innate ability and idea to spur up transformation. Here is their story.

Three engineering
students of Indore manufactured India’s first propeller led display, marking
city’s maiden step towards ‘Make in India’ initiative. While many politicians
and community leaders are talking about ‘Make in India’ initiative, the lacked
actions can be seen spurring up among the youngsters. It is working for our
benefit, as youngsters can define the future of our country.
The innovative head of
‘Propeller Led Display’ project, Raj Singh Sengar said, “During a discussion
with some marketing friends, I came across propeller led display lights, which
are imported from abroad.” Further, the discussion moved into why these lights
are not manufactured in India. There was no reason except unwillingness of
people to work on something new.
The same discussion
was spurred up during college hangouts, where his friends Karan Singh Sengar
and Neeti Chourey added valuable inputs for practical implementation of the
idea. However, due to lack of inspiration, the idea remained an idea until a
college competitor challenged the trio.
A bet was placed
wagering the confidence and will of students. “You know how it is, when someone
challenges saying that you can’t do, it becomes a question of honour and
self-respect, and that become our inspiration,” Karan said.
Set afoot, the trio
started researching about propeller led display. “It was a much tougher task
than imagined, as there were no trained faculties to help us in the city,”
Chourey said.
Through internet and
self analysing of propeller led display functioning, the trio came up with
their first research paper. “During our research, our college, Chameli Devi
Group of Institutes professor, C A Patil announced Project Innovation Concept
under the aegis of ICDCIT by KIIT university,” The competition was their opportunity
to check whether their idea is applicable and research appropriate.
After getting a heads
up on their research paper, their confidence shot up the roof and they started
working full time on their project. “We got selected among top 12 from 200
submissions, it was a proof that our idea was worth developing,” Raj said.
Finally, in the coming
period of time, their efforts paid off and they won the competition. The trio
plans to take the idea forward and help manufacturing industries implement it
so that making it in India is possible.
What is a Propeller Led Display?
Propeller Led Display
is a display unit that works on the principle “Persistence of Vision”. It
displays a set of characters and graphics using a column of LED embedded on a
wing of the Propeller. The graphics are displayed on a circular plane. The unit
plays a very vital role in a advertisement.
What’s the future scope of Propeller Led Display in India?
The project focuses on
the improved display system used for advertisement purposes. This project can
be embedded on the wheels of vehicles which will be then the display unit.
Therefore any graphic can be displayed on tyre of vehicle. It can replace the
hoardings used for advertisement in a great manner, apart from this it can also
be installed in government sectors like railways where large display blocks are
used for displaying information.
