Insecure me.
I have lost all my confidence in me about project and exams. Me and my friend Bharath started to search for a project so early right from the day we started 7th semester. We didn’t have ability to do one of our own so we decided to seek project center. We were looking for really good concept and went many project centers. I think in every project center we spent more than 2 hours for discussion. After a lot of confusion we decided to join TSYS project center. It was too late, still i was interested in IRIS RECOGNITION we thought of doing it. Unfortunately we dropped it for no reason. Again after lot of confusion we chose a project and by the time we went to register in project center, my class mate already registered it. We had no choice other than selecting another project and chose something else. Oh shit. Again just 5 minutes before Marc has registered that project. No choice now than choosing some other project because every time I went to HOD, she always showed disinterest in my project and rejected, Because I didn’t bring the right concept(I believe this must be the reason). Finally we chose a project “extracting text from the image and converting it to voice”. Those money making bastards in project center did in VB (visual basic). Only 1 module and only 1 form used in that project. When I zipped the whole project it came to 5Kb.WTF? I was shocked. At least I would’ve been happy if I got the right output and proper documentation, both sucks. We paid 12000Rs. When I asked for another project, they asked us to pay extra 2500Rs. I preferred not to pay, fight, and show repugnant and simply walked out. Now they are not ready to pay back the money, not to give desired output, proper documentation, at least another completed project (whatever). Now I have no project, no more money, and no support from college. At least I managed to get a project which my friend in SVIT doing. Sadly, I’m not getting output for that project too. Today I had to submit my final documentation but still I haven’t decided a project. 2 more days for model review. 2 weeks for final review. I’m fed up. Everything fails in my way. If I don’t do my project well surely it’ll have some effect on my exams too. Only my friends helping me out here. Thinking what to do.

That’s sad man.
I feel bad for you guys. But then all of us are having issues with our project. Maybe not to the same magnitude, but still we all do. No one is perfect.
And the project that you have chosen is not childs play either. Even if you were to use pre-existing modules, putting it all together by itself is a task.
Very few project centres know what they are doing. They themselves rip stuff of the net and do some crap that they do not know to customise.
Aren’t your dept people accepting the project you people submitted ? The one given by these people ?

Considering you barely have much time to do anything about it, you can
1.Try convincing the people at TSYS to add more modules to your existing project, add more functionality, etc.
You can sit with them and get it done.
2. Get a seniors’ project from another college and submit it. Ensure the coding works and documentation is available.
It may not be the right thing to do, but what the heck, you dont have much time to contemplate on all that.

I was not allowed to give review da due to some silly reason. They never knew what is
my project about except one staff. HOD telling that she cant help it if external doesn’t like the project.
March 24th, 2008 at 4:55 pm
Convincing them is impossible yaar, No way that they will accept to add modules, cos they got full money from us and now not responding properly, i feel shame to go behind them. Even i don’t want to explode in public. All i can do now is submit my friend project. My friend can give better project and explanation than him. Just searching one.

Like I told you, forget about outputs and accuracy. Use standard Anna University technique – add lots of story. Make it so huge that no one will read it and you’ll get through.
March 24th, 2008 at 6:30 pm
thanks Marc, I will try it. But i do need support from my batchmates.
March 25th, 2008 at 2:18 am
I just cant believe you started , not to care about the money you paid in the project center
March 25th, 2008 at 4:36 am
There is no way one can get the desired thing from a project center. They never do what we ask.
March 25th, 2008 at 8:55 am
Oh rats !!!
WTF is with that project centre huh? Just try to change the project, no matter how much ever simple or older it is.
I faced the same situation months back when we were in the initial stage. My HOD rejected almost every idea we said, stating “Idhellam oru periya matter eh illa pa”, damn it. We suggested RFID thing, we even suggested some other bio-metrics thing, but no use.
And in the eleventh hour we just took an IEEE paper(Total crap) and said that we would implement this shit and so we got approved.
Sadly, we are still in the ground phase of implementation. But we do believe we will show some convincing stuff in the end.
Huh, this totally sucks man.
Anyway dude, tell me if there is anything i could do for you.

Thank you so much Visu. Now i’ve planned to get my friend project and do it da.
March 25th, 2008 at 11:20 am
Oh fine da. So, whats is that ?
March 25th, 2008 at 12:55 pm
Fault tolerance da, My friend Muruganandam is helping me out to get output. Yet to see the output.
March 25th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
Oh great da !!!
March 25th, 2008 at 1:19 pm
Thanks dude

Hope it will all end well for you

Dude, get the money back!! Seriously. If it takes a few guys, take them with you. 12k is not a joke. (especially for a nothing project)
Atleast we ECE/EEE guys get some hardware to take home for 12k.
But I must say, you should have looked into things before paying up.
Don’t worry about the project much. we will all get 160 anyway (80% is not so bad afterall)
March 26th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
Dude, i was talking about getting the money back but the person is not even looking at me if i talk about it, he is like our pricipal. Karthik I feel shame to go behind him. All i want is 170-180 marks. If i go there i’l not get money but i’l be put under pressure again.
March 27th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Lol! Feeling very pity seeing the post and then all the comments. Nothing to say here as i am with you now and heard everything in person . Cool da. You will succeed.
March 27th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
realy i dont know wat to say may be my fate caught u, i think u should have done the project with some else, diffenetly not with me…
March 27th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
Even i may be the reason Bharath. NO matter now, we both have to get good marks.
March 29th, 2008 at 5:03 pm
