Projects
2021
Communicator Mask
Communicator masks work as protective gear, but will let you hear the voice clearly while two people talking to each other. In addition to speaking slowly and clearly, clear face masks or masks with a clear panel over the mouth can help restore these important visual cues and help individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing communicate more easily. These types of masks can be made at home easily as well using transparent sheets. This is ensured through the addition of a detachable panel to the mask that comprises an LED and speakers. While the LED helps augment the vision of the user, the speakers help him speak both lucidly and audibly. A yet another distinct feature of the COMMUNICATOR MASK is its reusability, the mask can be washed gently with soap and water or with a regular laundry detergent. For the said purpose, the panel comprising the LED and speakers may be easily detached by the users, and refixed once the washing and drying of the mask is done.
2020
SpeaPo - A Speaking Pole (A Journey to Save INR 20,000 Crores Every Year for India)
Reportedly, farmers waste INR 20,000 crores on excessive chemicals and fertilizers in farms. To address the challenge, the project viz. SpeaPo was conceived and materialized with the aim of reducing the usage of chemicals and fertilisers. The SpeaPo is a solar-powered speaking pole that offers highly reliable information relating to farm conditions to the farmers. The SpeaPo sends data related to temperature, humidity, clouds, soil pH and soil conductivity to a remote processor through the GSM board. The data is then processed by a remote AI server to generate useful information regarding soil data and the weather and crop conditions existing in targeted locations.

Wind tower which has a compatible design and can be placed in the urban areas. Wind mill has a tower with a single turbine mounted on it which generates electricity. Whereas, rotational wind tower is generating electricity through a tower having multiple wind turbines mounted on it. Another plus point is that, rotational wind tower needs a wind speed of 2m/s to rotate its blades whereas windmill needs a wind speed of 4m/s to rotate its blades which will generate electricity. Wind tower also contribute to the SDG goal: 7, SDG goal – 7 - Ensure access to renewable, affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.
