<p>Next Tech Lab from SRM University recently won the IESA Hackathon-Vision Summit 2017. Three members from the Internet of Things group at Next Tech Lab, SRM University, won the Industrial IoT-AR/ VR Make-a-thon organised by the IESA Vision Summit 2017. <br /><br /></p>.<p>The 30-hour hackathon, sponsored by Intel, took place recently at The Leela Palace, Bengaluru. Swaroop Belur (third year ECE), Aakash Jain (third year ECE) and Suresh Kumar (first year mechatronics) prototyped a Smart Industrial Failure Detection System combining technologies like Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence and augmented reality. <br /><br />They competed with experienced professionals from the industry and the startup ecosystem. Their hack impressed the panel of judges and the trio walked away with a grand prize of Rs 1 lakh. The cheque was given by Karnataka’s IT/ BP minister, Priyank Kharge, and founder of Hero Electronix, Ujjwal Munjal.<br /><br />Their team named ‘The Machinists’ worked for 30 hours straight to come up with a prototype from scratch. The system they built collects vital machine sensor data like temperature, humidity and moisture and sends all this data to the cloud, allowing easy access from anywhere.</p>
