Choose Your Challenge
Explore the official 15 problem statements across AI, Sustainability, and IoT. Your team will be assigned a problem statement upon registration to solve in Round 1 & Finals.
Smart Student Helpdesk Chatbot
Students often have difficulty finding information about admissions, fees, examinations, timetables and college activities.
Develop a chatbot that answers common student queries using college-provided information.
AI-Based Waste Classification
People often struggle to identify the correct waste category for disposal.
Build an AI application that classifies uploaded waste images into categories such as paper, plastic, metal and organic waste.
Student Performance Prediction
Students may not recognise declining academic performance until examinations.
Use sample attendance, internal marks and assignment scores to identify students who may need academic support.
Multilingual College Notice Assistant
Students may find official notices difficult to understand because of language barriers or complex wording.
Develop a tool that simplifies notices and translates them into English, Hindi and Marathi.
Crop Disease Identification
Farmers may not identify visible crop diseases at an early stage.
Create an application that analyses plant-leaf photographs, identifies likely diseases and provides basic advisory from an approved information source.
Smart Waste Segregation System
Mixed waste makes recycling difficult and increases landfill waste.
Develop a simple application that guides users to segregate waste into wet, dry, e-waste and hazardous categories.
Water Leakage and Wastage Reporting
Water leakage in colleges and residential buildings often remains unnoticed.
Build a platform to report leaks, record water wastage and track the status of repair requests.
Campus Energy-Saving Planner
Unnecessary use of lights, fans and air conditioners increases electricity consumption.
Create a dashboard that analyses sample electricity usage and suggests ways to reduce energy consumption.
Local Air Quality Awareness System
Citizens may not know when local air pollution levels are unhealthy.
Develop a dashboard that displays air-quality data, identifies pollution trends and provides general precautionary guidance.
Personal Carbon Footprint Calculator
People often lack awareness of the environmental impact of their daily activities.
Build a calculator that estimates carbon emissions from electricity use, transport and other selected activities and recommends ways to reduce them.
Smart Dustbin Monitoring
Waste collection teams may not know when dustbins are full.
Use an ultrasonic sensor and a microcontroller to measure the fill level and display an alert when the bin needs collection.
Smart Plant Watering System
Plants may receive too much or too little water due to irregular manual watering.
Use a soil-moisture sensor to activate a small water pump when the soil becomes too dry.
Smart Classroom Environment Monitor
High temperatures and humidity can make classrooms uncomfortable.
Measure classroom temperature and humidity using sensors and display readings with threshold-based alerts.
Smart Water Tank Level Controller
Water tanks may overflow or run empty because water levels are not monitored continuously.
Measure the tank's water level and provide alerts or automatically control a pump when configured thresholds are reached.
Smart Streetlight System
Streetlights consume electricity when full illumination is unnecessary.
Use a light sensor and a motion sensor to adjust LED brightness according to ambient light and nearby movement.
