    PROBLEM DIARY (DESIGN THINKING)

    SMART INDIA HACKATHON (PROBLEMS RANKED ACCORDING TO THE


    IMPORTANCE)
    1.Automatic Drug Dispenser.
    2.Smart and Effective real time Management of street parking.
    3.Comprehensive lnspection and Analysis of Water Supply Distribution Lines.
    4.Capacity building, performance assessment and motivation driven tool for faculty
    upgradation.
    5.Develop a Proctored exam tool for shortlisting the candidates for the national and
    international level hackathons.
    6.Green options for milk packaging (Low cost, environment-friendly, and extended
    shelf life packaging for milk).
    7.Technological solutions for safe disposal of menstrual waste.
    8.Water and Electricity Tracking app.
    9.Using existing CCTV network for crowd management, crime prevention, and work
    monitoring using AIiML.
    10.Fake Social Media Profile detection and reporting.

    I ranked Automatic drug dispenser as the first and foremost problem


    because according to me this is a great problem because inaccuracies in
    dispensing drugs may endanger lives, and the intricacies and costs of
    installing and sustaining such systems might outweigh the possible gains
    if they are not user-friendly or reliable. Ensuring patient safety and
    accessibility in healthcare is crucial, and any failure in these areas could
    have grave repercussions.

    Problem Statement proposed by me-


    As while travelling in railways, I saw rural areas have no proper sanitation
    facilities, people are left with no choice but to use railway tracks for defecation.
    This shows the urgency of low-cost toilet constructions in rural regions for
    maintaining clean and hygienic environments to all living out there.
    STARTUP INDIA SHOWCASE
    TOP 3 SHOWCASED STARTUPS WHICH I LIKED -
    1.Pupil Mesh ( DIPP NUMBER- DIPP 38658 ) PRODUCT STARTUP
    Incubated at IIM Bangalore, the team started its journey as SARmet in July 2017 ,
    to create an ultimate biker’s helmet which provides enhanced control and
    awareness on the road. Backed by the Dept of Science and Technology, SARmet
    was chosen as one of the best products of IICDC 2017. Incorporated as PupilMesh
    Pvt LTD since November 2018, we now specialize in investigating and
    implementing innovative solutions with cutting edge technologies like
    Augmented Reality, Computer Vision and IoT.

    2.DHARAKSHA ECOSOLUTIONS PRIVATE LIMITED ( DIPP NUMBER- DIPP


    83282 ) PRODUCT STARTUP
    We have developed an innovative process to create eco-friendly
    packaging from crop stubble waste using advanced biotechnology. Our
    method involves cultivating a specialized mushroom species on paddy
    straw, where the fungi’s mycelium binds the waste into a strong,
    biodegradable material. After sterilizing the substrate and adding a
    unique nutrient mix, we allow the fungi to grow in controlled conditions.
    The substrate is then molded into shape, dried, and turned into a
    durable, wood-like product. This packaging material is not only cost-
    effective and strong but also completely compostable, breaking down in
    about 60 days and enriching the soil when disposed of in a garden.
    3.NEGOTRIP PRIVATE LIMITED ( DIPP NUMBER- DIPP 21901 ) SERVICE
    STARTUP
    Negotrip helps travel enthusiasts, in selecting, comparing and booking
    Holiday Package from range of Holiday Suppliers instantly, under one
    platform and can further minimize their cost of travel by facilitating
    collaboration with other travellers having same interest.
    MY OWN PROBLEM STATEMENT - I saw rural areas have no proper sanitation
    facilities, people are left with no choice but to use railway tracks for defecation. This
    shows the urgency of low-cost toilet constructions in rural regions for maintaining clean
    and hygienic environments to all living out there.

    STARTUP IDEA – I have named this startup “GREENFLUSH”. It will aim at improving
    sanitation in rural locations through provision of affordable ecological public toilets that use
    advanced sustainable materials. We are experts who deal with making compact, lasting and
    simple-to-maintain modular pre-fabricated toilet units. In these areas where there is high
    demand for them, we will work in partnership with local authorities and private sector to
    install the toilets and provide training for the locals on ways of managing and taking care of
    them. This initiative will be financed by NGOs, government grants, as well as local businesses
    hence it will aims at improving the standards of cleanliness which will also contribute to
    public health within remote or rural areas thus offering easy sanitation in low resource
    environments.

    SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOAL


    CHOOSEN GOAL FROM THE SITE – ZERO HUNGER

    THE MOST CLOSET TARGET GROUP FOR WHICH THIS GOAL IS MOST SUITABLE IS –
    FAMILIES WITH LOW INCOME, REFUGEES , PEOPLES DISPLACED BY CONFLICTS,
    SMALL FARMERS, POOR PEOPLE IN CITIES, PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.

    PROBLEM STATEMENT – POVERTY IN CITIES AROUND

    TOP 3 KEY PROBLEMS FACED BY POOR PEOPLE-

    1. LACK OF BASIC NEEDS.


    2. POOR HEALTH AND EDUCATION.
    3. UNEMPLOYEMENT.

    SOLUTIONS FOR THESE -

    1. We can help the poor by fulfilling their basic necessities we can provide food
    assistance through food banks and nutrition programs, guarantee safe and cheap
    housing with the help of subsidies, invest in clean water and sanitation infrastructure,
    give free or low cost healthcare services, can provide free or subsidized educational
    opportunities , offer financial aid as well as job training among others. Actions like
    these can meet immediate needs while also contributing to long term stability and
    better living conditions.
    2. We can deliver sound health and education to underprivileged people, we could open
    free or low-cost clinics with free medications, sponsor medical insurance options and
    provide government subsidies to cover medical expenses, and promote public health
    by vaccination,etc.

    For learning purposes we can construct and sustain schools, grant academic scholarships
    as well as financial aid so that students can cover tution fees, can buy books, and can spend
    on other educational expenses. Through all this, essential services are reached while better
    chances for healthier lives and studies are created.

    3. To address joblessness among poor people, we can offer them training in employment
    which will teach them about market and skill development, and can provide guidance
    about how they can search for jobs, create there curriculum vitae and prepare for
    interview and connect to different business individuals, can support their small
    businesses by providing them microloans on 0% interest rates, can create
    opportunities for hands on work experience so that it can lead to permanent
    employement. These strategies may help increase job opportunities and open up ways
    to sustainable livelihoods.
