A competitive coding and innovation challenge where teams develop solutions to real-world problems. Participants will brainstorm, code, and present their ideas within a limited time frame to showcase their creativity and technical skills.
The participant limit has been reached; therefore, we are now closing registrations for the hackathon.
All participants are required to develop their products/software before arriving at the hackathon. Additionally, each team must prepare a presentation that effectively explains their project.
Make sure your product and your presentation is ready and impactful — this will be a key part of your evaluation.
A Company, XYZ provides medical cards with some balance to their ex-employees. Make a web application to manage these Transactions.
A web application specifically designed for Indian coal mines to quantify their carbon footprint and explore pathways to carbon neutrality.
India faces a complex challenge in balancing its reliance on coal for energy with its climate change commitments. Coal mining is a major source of carbon emissions, a greenhouse gas contributing to global warming. To achieve carbon neutrality, the Indian coal sector needs to offset its emissions. This can be done through a combination of strategies like reducing emissions from mining activities, adopting cleaner technologies, and offsetting remaining emissions by planting trees that absorb carbon dioxide. A web-based application can be a powerful tool in this journey by helping quantify a mine's carbon footprint and evaluate potential pathways to carbon neutrality.
The web based application will have following objectives:
A comprehensive software solution that includes:

Smart Classroom Management Software for Enhanced Learning Environments
In modern educational settings, managing classrooms efficiently while ensuring a conducive learning environment is crucial. Traditional methods of classroom management are often manual, time-consuming, and prone to human error, which can disrupt the learning process. Leveraging software-based solutions in classroom management can enhance operational efficiency, ensure safety, and create an engaging learning atmosphere for students. This project aims to develop a smart software solution to streamline classroom operations, improve resource utilization, and enhance the overall learning experience.
The Smart Classroom Management Software (SCMS) can utilize advanced algorithms, data analytics, and cloud-based technologies to automate various aspects of classroom management. The system can potentially include (but not limited to) features such as:
A fully functional prototype of the Smart Classroom Management Software (SCMS) demonstrating the above features through the integration of advanced algorithms, data analytics, and cloud-based technology. A user-friendly interface for students, teachers and administrators to interact with the system and access reports.
Visitors to museums often face several significant challenges due to manual ticket booking systems. One prominent issue is the inefficiency and time consumption associated with the process. Long queues are common, especially during peak hours, weekends, or special exhibitions, leading to frustration and impatience among visitors. Besides the wait times, the manual system is prone to errors, such as incorrect ticket issuance, double bookings, or lost records, which can cause further delays and inconvenience. Overall, these challenges associated with manual ticket booking systems significantly detract from the visitor experience, reducing satisfaction and potentially impacting the museum's reputation and visitor numbers.
The implementation of a chatbot for ticket booking in a museum addresses several critical needs, enhancing the overall visitor experience and streamlining museum operations. Here are the key reasons for adopting a chatbot ticket booking system:
An efficient and responsive multilingual chatbot based ticketing system that can handle all kinds of bookings from gate entry to shows. Payment gateway should also be integrated to make it fully free from human intervention. It will also provide analytics to aid in more efficient decision making process.
Farmers often face uncertainties in market access, leading to fluctuating incomes. Contract farming can provide stability by ensuring farmers have guaranteed buyers for their produce.
Develop a comprehensive platform that facilitates assured contract farming agreements between farmers and buyers. This platform will enable transparent communication, secure contracts, and timely payments, ensuring farmers have a reliable market for their crops.
An online marketplace that connects farmers with potential buyers, offering tools for contract management, price negotiation, and secure payment processing, thereby enhancing income stability and reducing market risks.
Description: Disaster Management includes ideas related to risk mitigation and planning before, after, or during a disaster.
Description: Traditional solar tracking systems often rely on electrical components and motors, which can be costly and require maintenance. A non-electrical tracking system offers a sustainable and low-maintenance alternative to enhance the efficiency of solar panels.
Expected Solution: Develop a cost-effective, non-electrical device that can accurately track the sun’s movement and adjust the orientation of solar panels for optimal exposure. The device should be reliable, easy to install, and capable of operating without external power sources.
Background: Coal is the most important and abundant fossil fuel in India, accounting for 55% of the country's energy needs. With coal-fired thermal power plants contributing around ¾ of total power generation—and being the biggest source of carbon emissions—there is an urgent need to address these emissions. India's updated NDC aims to reduce the emissions intensity of its GDP by 45% by 2030 (from 2005 levels), while still navigating energy security challenges.
Description: Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) is a promising technology to meet energy security and emission reduction goals. Despite being acknowledged by the IPCC, CCS faces challenges in cost, technological barriers, and the availability of geological storage. This problem presents a potential opportunity for innovators, researchers, and start-ups.
Expected Solution: Develop a low-cost solution using indigenous technology for carbon capture and utilisation. The solution should focus on sustainable methods for storage and transport of carbon, converting CO₂ into value-added products (e.g., construction materials, fuels & chemicals, or carbon nano-materials), thus contributing to a circular carbon economy.
Description: Smart Education is a concept that describes learning in the digital age. It enables learners to learn more effectively, efficiently, flexibly, and comfortably through innovative digital tools and methods.
Description: Provide ideas on how decentralized and distributed ledger technology—used to store digital information powering cryptocurrencies and NFTs—can radically change multiple sectors. Explore innovative applications that go beyond traditional use cases.
