Unnoticed / non-illuminated Center Medians: Due to multiple reasons the center medians goes

unnoticed by the driver’s, and it leads to many accidents. Some potential causes: - No reflector
indicator plates before the median - Opposite light glare to the driver which makes the things
invisible - Improper planning of the dividers - Improper / sudden lane keeping - Invisible co-
driver side area during sudden lane changing when there is a vehicle in front - Negligent
drivers - And several others that needs to be investigated… "

"One of the major problems being faced in hill areas is severe scarcity of water during the
summer months. Places, which are located in higher reaches and have witnessed rapid increase
in population in the last few years often have to face severe shortage of water during summer
months. At most places, water supply is received from natural underground water systems.
With rapid urbanisation resulting in an increase in concrete surfaces, the water infiltration into
ground during the rainy season has considerably decreased over the years. Thus, the natural
sources often become insufficient to support the population, which is dependent on them.
Large water tanks are often built in these places, where water is pumped from lower areas
which are close to a river, lake etc. Water harvesting in these areas is a difficult task due to the
rocky surface and restrictions related to blasting etc. A solution may be sought from students
through this hackathon to solve the water problem."

Uttarakhand being a mountainous region has villages at different altitudes and spread far
across. The Govt seeks to create an economical water security plan for remotest villages of
Uttarakhand.Objective:1. Villages in remote regions should have access to potable water year
round. 2. It will include creation of water storage units, proper water distribution plans and
recycling water."

it is well known that solar power production is maximum through solar panel when the sun is
perpendicular to the solar panel. Number of solar tracking electronic devices have been made
to align the solar panel with the sun. But they consume power and effectively power
generation is not efficient. It is desired to make a solar panel tracker which does not consume
power."
