The Covid-19 epidemic has shifted humanity's course, and Shaastra 2022's theme, 'Code to Chaos,' strives to illuminate the new world defined by increasing digitalisation.
Shaastra 2022 is scheduled to take place in a virtual re-creation of IIT Madras set in a futuristic Martian terrain in order to achieve this. A 'virtual Hyperloop' has been deployed to provide consumers with a futuristic experience while 'virtually traveling' between various Shaastra sites. The Mars dome will serve as a platform for lectures, events, and exhibition booths, as well as interactive games to enhance the experience.
Every year, the Shaastra Summit hosts a virtual conference on a different topic. The theme for this year is Gaming and Gaming Technology. The conference's purpose is to foster networking among gaming enthusiasts, students, and professionals so that they can learn from one another. The event, which will take place from the 14th to the 16th of January 2022, will comprise lectures and panel discussions with speakers from over five countries.
This year's Shaastra contains competitions in a wide range of subjects, including aeronautics, biotechnology, engineering design, and business, as well as law, computation, electronics, and quizzes. The goal is to give a forum for young minds to define and solve problems at the industrial level.
