Indian students declared second runners-up at Microsoft Imagine Cup world finals
Reportedly the three member team from Faridabad-based Manav Rachna Institute of Research and Studies developed “Caeli” (which means air in Latin) a smart automated anti-pollution and drug delivery mask specifically designed for asthmatic and chronic respiratory patients. Meanwhile the world championship was organized on the first day of the annual Microsoft Build conference here.
Furthermore “Caeli” implements breakthrough features to improve the quality of life for respiratory patients living in polluted areas like in north India and especially in the Delhi and National Capital Region (NCR). Aakash Bhadana from the “Caeli” team had earlier told “At a time when air pollution is a big concern in various countries including India, we are collecting the real-time air pollution data that can be used by relevant stakeholders and the Indian government. They can integrate our application program interdata-faces (APIs) into their projects and gain more insights”.
Moreover Bhadana with Vasu Kaushik and Bharat Sundal developed the product under the guidance of Umesh Dutta and team at Manav Rachna Research Innovation and Incubation Centre (MRIIC). Over the past 10 years, more than 1.65 million students from over 190 countries have participated in the “Imagine Cup”.
