We shall be launching it in the market soon, says IIT Ropar team
The Indian Institute of Technology Ropar has developed an alternative to the mercury blood pressure monitor that works just like the mercury type but is free of mercury.
India is a signatory to the Minamata Convention of the World Health Organization (WHO) under which mercury BP monitors are to be banned. The environmental treaty aims at safeguarding human health and the environment from the dangerous effects of mercury.

PATIALA: Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Ropar, have developed a code to detect sarcasm in news headlines. The team studied two international news organisations-one with sarcastic headlines and the other without.
Their research paper was published in international journal, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), in November 2020. The researchers claimed that computer program can detect sarcasm with more than 86% accuracy. The sarcasm detector works using neural networks to understand how a computer learns the patterns of sarcasm. The project also consists of a deep-learning system that categorises a certain newspaper headline as either sarcastic or non-sarcastic, after being trained on similar examples.
