In today’s fast-paced world, over 65% of people are busy with their jobs, either working from offices or from home. Due to their hectic schedules, they often forget to manage basic household tasks like switching off fans, lights, or water motors. This leads to unnecessary energy consumption, higher bills, and inconvenience, especially when no one is available at home.
To overcome this, we are developing HomeAura, a smart mobile-based home automation system that allows users to control their home appliances remotely through their smartphones.
In today’s urban world, over 62 million tonnes of waste are generated annually in India, yet only 28% is scientifically treated. A staggering 70% of households still mix plastic, organic, glass, and medical waste in a single bin. This not only increases landfill burden but also poses serious health risks to sanitation workers and the environment.
To combat this, we are developing Smart Bin—a smart, AI-powered household waste bin designed to automate waste segregation, reduce moisture, and enable touchless, hygienic
IIn India, more than 88% of women feel unsafe traveling alone, especially in unfamiliar or low-security areas. With crimes against women rising by 15% annually, there is a pressing need for proactive, AI-driven protection—not just reactive solutions.
SHEGuard is a next-generation smart wearable designed not only to ensure physical safety but also to uplift women emotionally and economically. Equipped with AI-based safety alerts, gait pattern monitoring, and emergency response triggers, the band also supports mental well-being.
India witnesses over 4.6 lakh road accidents annually, leading to more than 1.68 lakh fatalities (MoRTH, 2022). Factors such as over-speeding, tire blowouts, fuel mismanagement, and lack of real-time assistance contribute significantly to this crisis. Unlike aircraft, which are equipped with a Black Box to record events leading up to an incident, most cars lack a similar intelligent system. There's a pressing need for an automotive safety and monitoring solution that not only logs data but also proactively responds during emergencies, especially in rural and semi-
ndia loses an estimated ₹90,000 crore worth of crops annually due to wild animal intrusions, poor crop health monitoring, delayed fertilizer application, and unpredictable weather patterns (ICAR, 2022). In rural and forest-adjacent farming regions, especially in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Karnataka, over 35% of farmlands face frequent threats from animals like wild boars, elephants, and stray cattle. Simultaneously, 25% of yield loss is attributed to delayed or uneven application of fertilizers and lack of real-time crop health analysis. There's a pressing need for
India has over 303 million cattle, yet a vast majority of rural farmers rely on manual observation for monitoring animal health and predicting calving, leading to delayed detection of diseases, missed birthing alerts, and significant economic loss. Over 30% of calving events go unnoticed until complications arise, while up to 40% of cattle infections like mastitis or oral lesions remain undiagnosed in early stages, reducing milk yield and increasing veterinary costs. There is a critical need for a
