Meet the Top Three Solvers of Tomorrow!
Samsung Solve for Tomorrow winners were announced at a Grand Finale in Delhi, after a 6-month rigorous process of screening thousands of applications, training & mentoring.
Take a glimpse at their Solve for Tomorrow journeys here:
Team Alpha Monitor – Hemesh Chadalavada has developed a smart wristband to monitor Alzheimer’s patients and alert their caregivers about changes in their behaviour. The device monitors the patient’s health parameters such as pulse and blood pressure and the caregiver and doctor are automatically alerted if the patient gets out of bed and starts wandering. Hemesh’s grandmother is also an Alzheimer’s patient and would wander at abnormal times, without the caregivers knowing. She needs to be taken the doctor every week for her reports.
Team Udaan – The all-girls team of Prisha Dubey, Anupriya Nayak and Vanalika Konwar are trying to solve a big challenge in menstrual health. They are developing eco-friendly, affordable and washable sanitary pads using shredded sugarcane bagasse produced in sugar factories that will be extremely affordable compared to current offerings in the market. The trio wants to solve the social stigma around menstruation and reach out to underprivileged and rural women with their product.
