| 10 | Project Title :
Expected Outcome : The preliminary screening of novel coronavirus has been done through thermal screening at most of the public places. However, it is not a reliable solution due to limitation of accuracy. The proposed system would help to find out the respiratory, body temperature and heart rate of the person for the early detection of COVID 19. This device can be further extended with an automatic Internet of Things (IoT) based dispensary to deliver low cost medicines with expert advice for further actions.

| 11 | Project Title :
Expected Outcome : This workshop is an attempt to provide answers for queries of the scholars to understand the COVID-19 spread trend and possible strategies for its containment. Expected Timeline : 02-03 July Remarks : Students and scholars from any stream who are interested in learning about statistical analysis of spread of COVID-19 pandemic and strategies to restrict its spread can join the webinars. Identified officially as SARS-COV-2, or colloquially as novel corona virus, has recently spread from Wuhan, China to 213 other countries across the globe, infecting countless people on its way, with Covid-19, the disease, associated with this virus. The virus presented unprecedented challenges, but also provided a rare study opportunity, which, if seized, will help us understand future risks from similar outbreaks. This workshop will objectively underscore that data is both a powerful armament, to fight epidemics, and a potent shield in the line of defence, against future outbreaks. In these two days we will learn how to collate, discern, pattern match & visualize them. Also, the knowhow to draw inferences like epidemiological projections will be disseminated. In these two days we shall learn about public health & livelihood management during epidemic and modelling them in two different computer languages, including python & R. This workshop will deal with basics of these tools, data processing and analysis. Further information will be provided before/during the training sessions. The registration to the workshop is free but mandatory. See URL for registration to the webinars.

| 16 | Project Title : Fabrication of Portable and Cost-Efficient UV Torch “Prajjwal 1.0” for surface Disinfection
Expected Outcome : It is a UV based portable surface disinfectant, a low-intensity UV lamp will be placed at the focal point of a parabolic mirror which would result in a parallel beam of UV light. In order to be portable, the device will be battery powered and by virtue of the simplicity of design, it will be affordable, cheap, easily manufacture and economically feasible to be used widely in the country. Expected Timeline : Remarks : The outbreak of a global pandemic, COVID-19 has forced many challenges to mankind. Various measures have been taken to stop its spread. Social distancing, regular hand washing, etc have been advised to prevent its transmission. Countrywide lockdown is one of the major steps taken by the government of India to fight back COVID-19. Essential services like groceries, medicines, etc are necessary for sustenance. If a person is found to be affected with COVID-19, they have to be carefully treated and kept in isolation so that the health workers treating the person may not get affected. One of the root causes of the rapid spread of Corona virus has been due to transmission by surface. Countries like Italy and Spain has suffered a huge outbreak due to transmission through surfaces among other mediums of transmission. In the case of India, this outbreak can be devastatingly huge if not brought under control within this small timeframe. To counter this problem, i.e. contraction through surface transmission, a UV based portable surface disinfectant is hereby proposed.
