NTU, India’s Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) Innovation Cell, and All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) have successfully organised the second edition of the Singapore-India Hackathon, a competition for students of both countries to collaborate on innovative solutions to real-life challenges in healthcare, education and clean energy.
The top prize went to Team 10 for their solution to monitor air impurities through sensors installed in a potted plant. Upon detecting high levels of impurities, fans will automatically switch on to circulate clean air from the base of the plant.
NTU President, Professor Subra Suresh said, “NTU Singapore is pleased to work with our Indian counterparts to present the Singapore-India Hackathon for the second consecutive year. Singapore and India have many dynamic and talented young people who hold the key to future innovation. This hackathon harnesses their passion and nurtures their creativity."
