SolarMobil Manipal
www.solarmobilmanipal.inThe team of Solar Mobil was started in 2011 with a vision of innovating and engineering towards making affordable Green Technology. Our team comprises of 30 undergraduate engineering students from Manipal Institute of Technology. The team is interdisciplinary - consisting of students from Mechanical, Electrical and Electronics, Electronics & Communication, Instrumentation & Control, Mechatronics, Industrial Production and Automobile Engineering. There is an even mix of students from all 4 years which are guided by the faculty of the college. The team is broadly divided into three categories– Mechanical, Electrical and Electronics, and Management. Each of these has a number of subsystems under it for better organized planning. We started our first project in 2011 with the car Freyr1 which was a single seater solar electric vehicle prototype. The idea cropped up while thinking about the global environmental scenario. The depleting fuel sources. The rate of hike of fuel prices is exponentially increasing. So we wanted to make a car which does not pollute the environment and use the free energy (solar) available to power the car. Our second project “SERVe : Solar Electric Road Vehicle” is four wheeled two passenger seater solar electric vehicle. The launch of SERVe was very successful and proved to the world that a solar electric vehicle is a viable alternative. SM-S1, the fourth car made by the team is India's first four seater solar-electric prototype car that proved to be a huge milestone in the team's progress. Following the success of the SM-S1, the team worked on building SM-S2, a two-seater cruiser class car abiding the WSC guidelines. SM-S2 was the most aerodynamically efficient car, the team had ever built. We are now focusing on our 5th project, a single seater racing car that we intend on showcasing at a National level.
