What to Build

Complete four project challenges below and develop a functional prototype during the hackathon. Your solution should address the stated objective while demonstrating creativity, technical skills, and real-world applicability.

What to Submit

Each team is required to submit a complete project package before the official submission deadline. Incomplete or late submissions may not be considered for evaluation.

Your submission must include the following:

Project Information

Provide the following details as part of your submission:

• Project Title

• Team Name

• Team Members

• Selected Project Challenge

Project Demonstration Video

Submit a 3–5 minute project demonstration video. A screen recording is preferred; however, a mobile phone recording is also acceptable. The presentation should clearly demonstrate the project's objectives, implementation, key features, and functionality. Teams are encouraged to explain the technologies used, challenges encountered, and potential future improvements.

Source Code

Compress the complete project into a single ZIP archive and name the file using your team name (e.g., TeamName.zip). The ZIP archive should include all source code, assets, configuration files, datasets, trained models, and any other resources required to run the project.

README.md

A README.md file is mandatory and must be included inside the ZIP archive. The README should provide clear instructions for the judges to set up and execute the project. At a minimum, it should include:

• Project overview

• Technologies and frameworks used

• Installation and setup instructions

• Required dependencies

• Environment variables or API configuration (if applicable)

• Commands required to run the project

• Demo credentials (if applicable)

• Any known limitations or additional notes

The project should be fully executable by following only the instructions provided in the README.
