“DRESS UP YOUR MECH BUDDY!”

ABOUT

MACHATT is a start-up which provides the designing and perfect outlook of your mechanical buddy. We at MACHATT also provides your personal customization for your machines and more specifically the robots which will be designed in the coming present. Our company designs the perfect body for your machines using the most up to date and advanced 3-d modelling softwares. After the model is designed, our engineers will analyze the most in demand and cheapest element in the market which can be used for designing the body of your machines ranging from the cheapest of recycled aluminum to the costliest carbon fibers. Then after we also customize the designed mock-up according to your personal needs and bestow you YOUR MECHANAL BUDDY fit enough to get a place in your workplace/home.

WHY THIS IDEA CAN SHINE IN THE MARKET??-

We know, that the robots and machines haven’t just landed in the workplace — they’re expanding skills, moving up the corporate ladder, showing awesome productivity and retention rates, and increasingly shoving aside their human counterparts. The dependency of humans on robots may cause a huge demand of robots and the perfect designing of those machineries. We see the advances happening in technology and it’s becoming evident that computers, machines, robots, and algorithms are going to be able to do most of the routine, repetitive types of jobs. The people in near future will also start creating a lot of robotics stuffs and other mechanical assistants. SO, there has to be someone to assist them in creating an attire for their respective machines. MACHINE ATTIRE (MACHATT) is an answer for that. Ranging from humanoids to delta robots, everything needs to look good and be dressed up properly, and so is our work.

RELEVANCE

Our idea has a significance in the present scenario as well as the upcoming future. Present scenario comprises of the machines and simple kind of robots specially found in factories and workplaces designed to do a specific task.

In that case we will provide the 3-d design of those robots and machineries which would look good and be perfect mechanically considering its long term usage.

Whereas, in the future scenario where there would be a heavy demand of robots and humanoids, we will design the whole body of your humanoid and customize it as if you are dressing your own pet dog.

These many services are not provided by any company till date and that’s why we are different from others as we have thought of today as well as tomorrow.

FOR WHOM DO WE WORK???

This question is not appropriate for us as our target customers are not limited only to the mechanized factories, we can also work for your young ones if they are talented enough to create a series of transistors and resistors or create a program with the help of ARDUINO and innovate the simplest of the circuit boards, WE ARE IN.

All we demand from you (apart from the cost of designing and creating) is a little bit of patience from your side as we do not believe in haphazard work. We assure you that the design and the product outfit that we will provide you will be unmatchable.

The people which we specifically target are the talented innovators who are always ready to put forth there 100% in the field of innovation and technology. We are just the helping hands who also love technology and are always ready to help the young innovators emerging in our country. Children these days show keen interest in the field of technology and science, we also know that these children of the present are the talented and brilliant scientists of tomorrow. Our future will be covered with all these kinds of pre-programmed, autonomous, teleoperated and humanoid robots and machines and the creators would be none other than our own children. The main motive of our start-up is to provide a staircase up for these artistic children and provide them with the best customization, so that they can take up their ideas on a scale up. This is the future aspect and target audience of our project

For now, our basic focus is no different but the word ’robots’ may seem a bit futuristic for now , therefore we accept any naked machine of our creators ranging from all ages of people and all scales of people , be it a large scale industrialist or a young entrepreneur , our job is to provide you the best attire for your mech buddy.

PREREQUISTES AND RESEARCH KNOWLEDGE

The basic talent needed for this job is artistic attitude towards technology. This is the basic and the primary skill required for any worker in our start-up because the other skills can be attained in due course of time but having such attitude towards one’s own profession is not something very common. As our base motive is to provide you the best design and outfit of your machines, we need artistic minds in our company. Rest, the secondary skillset required is as follows-:

1.) SOFTWARES REQUIRED

An app and a website are a must in case of any professional business idea and so, would be created by us. We use the latest language python, ( which is also taught in our curriculum ) which is also a high- level language and contains many in built modules and libraries for GUI(Graphical User Interface) development. Android Studio will be used by us to create the ‘MACHATT’ application. Also, the website would be created using CakePHP. CakePHP is an open source web framework. It uses Model, View, Controller (MVC) approach. It is a common design pattern in web development because it separates the business logic, presentation logic and data. Controller leads all the incoming requests. It works as an interface between the model and the view. The model contains the business logic or data. View represents the presentation relates aspects such as User Interfaces (UI).SO, we use these softwares for development of our websites and applications.

Also, the designers will be the using Maya and Houdini for 3-d modelling

2.) HARDWARES REQUIRED

The hardware components of our start-up comprise of manual as well as mechanized works. After designing the prototype, we ask the user whether he/she is satisfied with the design of his/her machine / robots. Then after, comes the use of raw materials required for making the outer body of your custom machine. Ranging from aluminum to carbon fiber, stainless steel or any other substance would be molded into the desired shape using various kind of machineries which is currently used in the market. Robots will also be used for painting and decoration of your product for ex. The Arduino Tinkerkit Braccio Robot. (Used for spray painting).

Then, after the custom decoration part can be done (if the user wants) on some extra expenses.

OUR SOLUTIONS AND SERVICES

It is a very true slogan from “Adidas” brand, “Nothing is Impossible”. Our Humans abilities are limited, and that is why robots and machines are created. Have you ever imagined that, when you wake up in the morning, once you open up your eyes, everything that is in your mind such as breakfast, office wear, slippers and even more have already being prepared by your “robot-buddy”. Now that robo-buddy of your is not dropped off directly from the heavens. It requires a lot of efforts staring right from raw materials purchasing, arc welding, assembling, and the spray painting. These stages of manufacturing require a lot of expertise in various fields

Now, we have a place at the end most point in the chain of manufacturing. We help the creators to get the right body, which is mechanically and scientifically perfect for their creations. Our role is to take a proper report of what kind of an embodiment, they want to see their years of work in. We are well aware of the fact that the field of science and tech is not a

cake walk and it requires a great deal of efforts to create even the smallest of the nanochips. That’s why, We at MACHATT are here to provide you with the finest designs of your machines and robots.

It can be imagined that, a huge demand of machineries is going to rise in the coming market as there will be a high dependency of humans on robots. We, being the first ones to provide these services at such a personalized level and minimum cost, carry a great edge over the others. The number of young innovators are also increasing these days, and we are like a helping hand to them, who give them the most appropriate shape to their projects which they can showcase or patent for themselves.

WHATS OUR BUDGET AND WHAT SHOULD BE YOUR BUDGET??

Since, our project has both a future as well as a present scenario perspective, therefore predicting the exact budget plan of one’s project is quite a difficult task.

After a lot of research and analysis, considering the present and future case scenario, the cost of setting up a work place and a factory in India would cost up to 10 lakhs INR inclusive of the machineries and robots needed for production in present case scenario. The cost may rise exponentially in the near future as there will be a huge demand in the market for robotics and machines.

The software products and designing software may cost a bit more ranging from 2–3 lakhs INR. The cost of hosting a website and creating an application may cost up to 10K INR per year. (may increase in due course of time).

For, registering yourself and creating your prototype with us may range from just 500 INR — 10k INR depending upon the amount of work it requires to construct the outer body and custom development of your robot. The physical materials obviously are not inclusive and are completely depending upon your choices and preferences.

MARKETING STRATEGY

Our base strategy would be marketing through various social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook etc., as these platforms comprise the maximum public and are the best way to create awareness in the society regarding anything which is new.

Since, our motive is also to promote the young entrepreneurs and innovators, we would also go to schools and colleges for our marketing and our start up would also promote the thought process of our Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji ‘MAKE IN INDIA’ and ‘DIGITAL INDIA’.

We will also be approaching big industries and factories for the promotion of our products as it would bring great profit to the ‘MACHATT’.

UNCERTAINITIES AND RISKS

This branch of science will grow exponentially in the future and people with similar interests may emerge, which surely is a danger to our market. But establishing ourselves first in the market would surely rule out that problem.

Bringing exciting offers and gaining sponsorships for our start-up is a must as it surely boosts anyone’s level.

MILESTONES AND THE CHALLENGING WAY AHEAD

To be very specific, our start-up will emerge from India and it will carry a special space for our country. We would then, on public demand, expand our reach to abroad countries with higher demands. This is definitely not going to be a cake walk but whatever be the way ahead, we are ready for it!
