Sharing science and engineering through story-boarding

The Electrical Communication Engineering (ECE), department in IISc has begun a unique way of sharing science and engineering with people who walk on the street–quite literally. Located near a corner of the ECE department and the main road of the IISc campus is a large hoarding on which a poster is displayed time to time. What is on the poster is actually a story-board that captures profound scientific and engineering concepts in the manner of a comic-strip. An effort is made to explain the concepts in simple language and effective images. People who take a walk in the morning or evening stop by to read. Students, staff, and faculty who pass by take a few minutes to go through the content. What is shown in below are a few story-boards that had appeared in recent months. Prof. K. V. S. Hari may be contacted for more information about this effort.”
