After 36 hours Hack-a-Thon out of 2000 projects Top 8 Projects have got chance to compete at the International Phase of NASA Space Apps Challenge 2018. Hon’ble Posts, Telecommunications & ICT Minister Mustafa Jabbar handed over the prize to winners.
Dhaka
Champion: Team Game Changer
Project Name: TexGuard
Category: Volcanoes, Icebergs, and Asteroids (oh my)
Sub-Category: Volcanoes, Icebergs, and Asteroids (oh my)- Spot That Fire!
Project Details: Our apps aim is protect people’s life in case of danger.by analyzing various parameters. It predicts the upcoming danger such as early wildfire detection. It monitor our daily activity and send messages to our friends & family if we are in a danger and it will analysis data from using satellite information from 3-4 hours to ten minutes or less. In our day to day life a mischief can happen to us at any time and any place. In most of the situation we can’t get the help we need in time as we can’t communicate with others. This device is an individual device that doesn’t required any kind of smartphone or other device. It’s a tinny device inserted in your clothing. The device will stay hidden underneath the fabric and will not be visible from outside.
Key Points:
It can notify people nearby
It can notify people driving
It can save life
It can track location

Sub Category: Can You Build A….Make Sense Out of Mars
Project Details: Our proposed device will have necessary equipment to carry out several lab tests which are crucial to detect bio-signatures in Mars. It will also help the survivals to determine the weather & soil condition, water detection. Those data will help them to sustain their life in mars & produce their own foods.
Key Points:
Environmental Data
Soil Evolution
Short Range Farming
Life Saving Backup
Water Detection

Chittagong
Champion: Team Queue
Project Name: Drone Tree Plantation
Category: Help Others Discover the Earth
Sub Category: Can You Build A….Invent Your Own Challenge
Project Details: Our Project is based on saving the world. It will help to recover our earths ecological Imbalance. As it is our own invented idea so we think it is innovative for saving the world from unwanted disaster.

Comilla
Champion: Team photon
Project Name: Research Assistant Robot
Category: Can You Build A….
Sub Category: Can You Build A….Invent Your Own Challenge
Project Details: Ebola virus effects in West Africa between 2013-2014. Thousands of people had affected by Ebola and more than 70% patients were died. Doctors, researchers and health workers from different countries and organizations, including WHO, USA, Uk, Russia and Spain. They were collecting samples from the patient to study on Ebola at the laboratory. But unfortunately, some doctors, researchers and health workers died when they collected samples for research. We are taking initiative to help researcher for making them safe. Our research assistance robot can reduce chemical accident in laboratory . This robot can easily avoid those accident which can be happened in laboratory. It can move easily in the laboratory with & without the help of human. It works on the predetermined program. By this solutions researcher can remotely (measuring samples, placement in slides, inserting in test tubes, mixing explosive / radioactive materials).
Key Points:
- It can be saved & printed any experimental data like time , weight , ph , temperature etc . 2. We want to add object detection system in this robot.
- We want to working on hand for increasing more flexibility .
- We want to improve our wireless communication system so that researcher can operate it easily.
5. We want to develop on our robotic leg so that it can move smoothly and easily .

Runners-Up: MetaCoders
Project Name: NextFLY
Category: Can You Build A….
Sub Cateogry: Can You Build A….Do YOU Know When the Next Rocket Launch Is?
Project Details: Our app will provide the exact launch schedule of NASA and other Space agencies. It will also provide the live status of the launch. The user will also know the schedule of the next launch and they will be notified via FCM. App will automatically countdown till the launch time. All the data will be gathered from the NASA Website by Api
Key Points:
1: User will know about Next Rocket Launch of NASA and Other Agencies
2: User will know about why this rocket is launching.
3: User will be notified before the Next Launch
4: User could see the live broadcast of the launch.
5: User can read the articles about the facts about the Launch.

Rangpur
Champion: HSTU Matroid
Project Name: Eye Assistant
Category: What the World Needs Now is…
Sub Category: What the World Needs Now is…Looking GLOBE-ally
Project Details: This project is for helping the blind people. This can help them walking in the street as well. They will not only get to know that if any obstacle is coming towards them but also they will know from which direction they are coming. If they are in some trouble they can send notifications through that as well. We can say this as almost a complete package for the blind people by which they can get rid of this problem.
Key Points:
- It solves disable people’s problem
- It is innovative
- It is efficient in any condition (cold/warm)
- It is low in cost
- Its surely implementable and usable
