The aim of this round is to give our participants’ teams a chance to go on an intellectual journey through a series of riddles. These riddles will ignite the participants’ cognitive capacities, while at the same time gifting them parts of their problem statement. Hence these riddles have to be solved to get the ultimate problem statement.
This round is all about ideation and not applying boundaries to thoughts. The teams are expected to come up with novel and creative, sustainable ideas pertaining to solving the problem in their respective problem statements.
On the basis of their work, certain teams will be selected from round 2, and these teams will have to pitch their respective ideas over video conferencing to the panel on the basis of which they will be evaluated and awarded.
Do you have an idea for an app that could simplify on-farm tasks or technology that could contribute to the development of bioenergy and the use of machines or proper communication to revolutionize the field of agriculture?

Appropriate management and disposal, including energy generation, volume minimization, incorporation into useful products can be viable and environment-friendly option.
ML in the field of biology it has led to an enormous amount of data generation, NGS, epigenetic modifications, protein binding motifs, and chromosome conformation. To analyze data faster we do need unsupervised learning of algorithms, develop combinations of drugs that might reduce time in case of finding correct combinations in cases of sudden massive pandemics etc.
The medical field is one of the most sensitive domains and it is very important to keep medical instruments and our surroundings clean. However, it becomes crucial in cases where certain products contain toxic chemicals, that might be harmful to common people and certain occupational requirements.

Bio defence is required in cases of biowarfare reduce risks, counter biological threats, recovering from bio incidents, protecting our country by creating new vaccines and also restore biosecurity.
Can you create state-of-the-art safety and security technologies? Some of the technology that is being used is a face, expression and gesture recognition.Some examples include a safety apps powered with AI and ML capabilities collect data and patterns over a while and , later on, provide other users with pre-generated reports.
With today’s advanced information technology, a massive amount of transportation-related data has been generated continuously through traffic sensors, fare gates, smartphones, social media and so on.
