Brief history of time: my edition

There seems to be a lot of encouragement behind the dudes at IITM creating the "Shakti" chip...during my conversation with my guide at IITB i learnt that there was a similar attempt to create a chip at IITB...take a bow creators of "Ajit" (seen here)...we were generally talking about the interface for the Navic chips as compared to the US GPS system when i asked why we weren't building drones with a light Linux interface using the Shakti chips where we'd need a barebones PWM, UART, I2C and SPI and maybe CAN interface... unfortunately this interface requirement was already shared with the "Ajit" guys and guess what...there was no response to the request even though the departments are still 50 meters away from each other to date...!!! Even today if ten Aero grads sit and just think of apps for drones with the guys from Elecs there is no end to the applications of drone tech that can take off...not that im being partial to IITB (as it was always...

Even the gardens are precision cut at IITB :) This is the one place i can go even when i'm really low in life...it brings new life in these aged bones just to interact with the kids who will be the future of this country long after i'm in the stars...! Time to come up with a drone based on a simplified version of the Shakti chip and a bare bones ported Linux version :) Not sure that the Navics are available...but this would be a truly huge scale verification of the GPS concept put up by India...i mean even if the other countries dont use it, the chaps could sell millions of drones and the system could self correct itself if the proper feedback channel was provided into great precision.
