Aerothon - Drone Hackathon: Stages and Timelines
Submission Round
Teams are presented with two problem statements, of which they have to attempt one. They represent existing crucial issues of the world, which we believe can be solved by the indigenous usage of drones. The submissions will be evaluated based on their ingenuity, availability of technology used, economic feasibility, and practical application. Most of the focus should be towards the detection and analysis of targets, and the accurate transmission of that data for effective communication. The problem statements can be viewed in the attached pdf file after registration.
