At this event, final-year BSc IT students are presenting 50 projects related to AI, software and web development, cybersecurity, and multimedia. Executive Chairman Laxman KC stated that these projects, developed by around 170 students, hold both technical and commercial potential.
Projects on display include the F-Peev drone (which showers flowers), Robo Soccers (football-playing robots), Dancing Robot (which dances to music), and an AI-powered Emotion Detection System that reads facial expressions and recommends music accordingly. The flower-dropping drone used during the opening ceremony is expected to have potential applications in delivery services in the future.
KC added that cybersecurity-focused projects aim to address challenges like online fraud, data breaches, and banking security.
