The Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Club (RAIC) is a dynamic initiative established in 2019 within the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering. Originally exclusive to students of the department, RAIC is dedicated to creating a collaborative and innovative environment for students passionate about technology. Its mission is to build a vibrant community where like- minded individuals come together to explore and advance their understanding of Robotics, IoT, and Artificial Intelligence. By focusing on hands-on learning, the club ensures its members gain practical exposure that bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application.

The RAIC is led by our Faculty Coordinators: Dr. G.A. Sathish Kumar, Head of the ECE Department; Dr. T.J. Jeyaprabha, Coordinator and Associate Professor, ECE; and Mr. A. G. Murali Krishna and Ms. S. Mary Cynthia, Assistant Coordinators and Assistant Professors, ECE.
RAIC is more than a technical club; it is a. This club serves as a hub for exchanging ideas and exploring new dimensions of robotics and AI applications. This inclusivity broadens perspectives and enables participants to address complex problems with holistic solutions. By providing hands-on exposure, RAIC ensures that its members are well-prepared for industry challenges. The skills gained through the club's programs include not only technical expertise but also teamwork, project management, and critical thinking.
In essence, RAIC is a springboard for innovation, a support system for aspiring technologists, and a beacon for anyone passionate about robotics and artificial intelligence. By building a culture of curiosity and collaboration, the club ensures its members are not just learners but contributors to the advancement of technology.
Events and Initiatives at SVCE by RAIC
At Sri Venkateswara College of Engineering (SVCE), we organize a range of engaging events to inspire and challenge students, including:
• Mentorship Program: One of RAIC's core initiatives is its peer mentorship program, which offers 60 hours of structured training designed to equip participants with industry-relevant skills. This program takes students through a progressive learning journey. With around 36 mentees and 6 mentors the classes are conducted in two phases.
• Ampere Quest: Ampere Quest, a team-based event exclusively organized for the 2nd-year Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) students, was held with great enthusiasm and participation. The event saw an overwhelming response with 31 teams registering, consisting of 2 members per team, amounting to 62 participants.
• Enigma: A cryptography challenge crafted exclusively for first-year students, promoting analytical thinking and problem-solving.
• UPAGRAHA: A prestigious national-level technical symposium nurturing ideas and a platform for expressing technical skills.
• Make-a-thon: A creative marathon encouraging students to design and build solutions for real-life challenges faced in the society.
• Track Bot and Maze Bot: Line follower and obstacle avoiding robots designed to test the students understanding of electronic sensors and microcontrollers.
• Guest Lectures: Insightful sessions on emerging trends and core topics in electronics and communication engineering
