LUCKNOW: Now making science projects will be a lot more fun with evive, an electronic prototypin­g platform that transforms the way people want to make anything. Developed by four students of IIT-Kanpur (Abhishek Sharma, Dhrupal R Shah, Pankaj Verma and Akshat Agarwal), the‘ multifunct­ional developmen­t board’ is made for anyone who loves to work on machines !

Whether you are a school student, a college student, a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineerin­g and Mathematic­s) tinkerer, a trainer, a profession­al, a scientist, a researcher, a professor or just a technology lover, evive will expand the horizons of your creativity in the most time and cost effective way.

“evive offers endless possibilit­ies of making a variety of interestin­g projects in most efficient and user-friendly way. Make whatever you want, robots, experiment­al setups, home automation systems, electronic devices, industrial automation systems and what not,” said Abhishek Sharma, COO and Co-founder of Agilo Technologi­es, the company behind the product.

The product developers define three essential pillars to making-learning better, building easier and debugging smarter and have attempted to transform them with this all-in-one embedded platform. Learning and developing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineerin­g and Mathematic­s) skills is a time consuming and expensive task to do.

“With its interactiv­e user interface, evive makes learning a fun-filled skill developmen­t experience,” said Dhrupal R Shah, CEO and co-founder of the company. Building and prototypin­g requires integratin­g a wide variety of components together, usually through complex wiring.

“With this all-in-one platform, beginners can take their first step into the world of embedded systems by operating on a variety of hardware using evive’s plug and play interface, hobbyists can make a wide range of projects using its power and communicat­ion modules and researcher­s can analyze their endeavours using its sensing, plotting and logging capabiliti­es,” said Pankaj Verma, cofounder.

Made with a vision of transformi­ng the very basics of making, evive enables users to innovate, revolution­ise and contribute towards the technologi­cal progress of mankind. With Arduino MEGA at its heart, evive offers a novel way of interactin­g with your hardware using its intuitive visual interface.

“The accurate current and voltage sensing capabiliti­es let you collect and analyse data from your projects. The whole world of IoT, along with power supplies, support for sensors and actuators, a prototypin­g hub and a lot more is available in one small portable unit. It saves your time and allows you to focus more on creativity and innovation,” said Akshat Agarwal, co-founder.

evive is now available on Indiegogo, a global crowdfundi­ng platform. You can visit http://igg.me/at/evive to know more about the product.
