About Senior Hardware Hackathon:
It is a nationwide hardware hackathon for college students which encompasses the exposition of the static and dynamic final product/prototype, whereby the stealthy potentials of the youth are unveiled. This event is exclusively chalked out to court participation beyond the walls of technical institution so as to scoop out the essence of innovation from every nooks and crannies of the region.
Event task :
The task is to construct a final hardware product either static or dynamic, in order to explain any phenomenon of Science and Technology or to depict the working of any application of engineering studies.
Focused area of the contest:
-
Save Energy - Lights can either be kept ON or can be switched OFF, but considering the timing constraints the lighting system cannot be kept off at night time. But due to less traffic or usage after midnight all that energy gets wasted. The aim of this problem statement is to device a system to intelligently lighten the college properly and save a large amount of energy.
-
Track-o- solar - We all know how solar panels are used to generate electricity from sunlight. But its efficiency is hampered by the path of the sun. The task of the team will be to device a method to follow the sun without moving the solar panels.
-
Human scavenging of potholes - Despite stringent provisions in the law, manual scavenging continues unabated in India. Manual scavenging is defined as "the removal of human excrement from public streets and dry latrines, cleaning septic tanks, gutters, and sewers." Despite the fact of possible job losses for these people, propose a device for an innovative hardware solution to curtail this high risk of human lives.
