THE LEGACY

Invictus 1.0 was designed and manufactured for a national-level event named National Solar Vehicle Challenge (NSVC). It outperformed all the other vehicles in acceleration and other events. Thanks to our innovations and design we were able to achieve various awards. Invictus 1.0 powertrain is being incorporated in the passenger vehicle. It's a completely new design that gives very good acceleration that all solar vehicles lack.

STRIVING TOWARDS THE FUTURE

Team Solarium works to inculcate the latest design, innovations and invents new methods to improve the efficiency of our vehicles. Team Solarium believes that it can surely bring a wave in the current engine-based systems. Renewable energy resources have the potential to empower the world and at the heart of this belief lies our team's logo, power of the sun combined with an engineering mindset to bring forth the near future.

Each year, Dassault Systemes collaborates with an organization. This year they decides to work with Team Solarium to build a passenger vehicle that could be used as an in-campus utility for our college. The passenger vehicle is an inspiration of Invictus 1.0 and its design is based on Invictus 1.0. It was manufactured by having an ergonomic design to allow the campus faculty to use it with ease. The aesthetically pleasing design also holds real-time data telemetry which allows live data to be monitored in a 7-inch display in the vehicle. To charge the passenger vehicle at a faster rate, we have built our own solar charging station. This was also done to increase awareness and promote green energy so that we can inspire the future generation.
The Invictus 2.0 was our first vehicle that was a part of ESVC (Electric Solar Vehicle Championship). It was formed from a carbon fiber monocoque chassis, making Team Solarium the second team all over India and achieve this feat. It also consisted of an electronically actuated gear shifting mechanism that allows us to change gears with the push of a button. These innovations and ideas propelled Team Solarium to achieve the best design award in the competition.
Our latest creation, Invictus 3.1, has been upgraded from the version prior to it. We developed an autonomous (driverless) vehicle with unique features like automatic gear shifting and a carbon fiber battery box. The carbon fiber monocoque chassis composed of customized brake calipers and an adjustable suspension system. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 outbreak and the lockdown following soon in India, we could not take part in ESVC 2020. A great initiative was taken by the ESVC authorities 6 months after the event was canceled. They decided to hold the event virtually, where new rounds and new ideas will be presented. Invictus 3.1 managed to perform extremely well virtually, helping us achieve our best rank ever.
The Invictus 3.0 was built to compete in ESVC for the second time. We built a carbon fiber monocoque from a unique process. The vehicle held a plethora of features and components that helped grab many awards in the competition. It also allowed us to win the best design award for the third consecutive year.
