INNOVSENSE 2026 was conducted as a prototype‑expo event where students from various branches formed teams of five to conceptualize and develop solutions for real‑world problems. Over 180+ teams participated and showcased their working prototypes on Day 1 of the event.
The event emphasized end‑to‑end development—from ideation and problem framing to hardware/software implementation and prototype demonstration. The projects covered diverse domains such as IoT, embedded systems, AI/ML applications, healthcare, agriculture, smart cities, assistive devices, and sustainability.
On Day 1, six jury members from various technology domains in the industry interacted with the teams, evaluated the prototypes, and shortlisted the top 27 teams for the finals.
Evaluation criteria included problem relevance, technical depth, innovation, feasibility, and presentation quality.
On Day 2, three industry jury members conducted the final round, engaged with the shortlisted teams, and announced the top 20 teams across the following categories:
Budding Innovators
Best Projects
Best Genesis Products
The event successfully fostered an innovation‑driven culture among students and encouraged interdisciplinary collaboration across departments.
Students gained hands‑on experience in problem identification, solution design, and prototype development, aligning with experiential learning outcomes in engineering education.
The interaction with industry experts enriched students’ understanding of market needs, technical feasibility, and product‑level thinking.
The shortlisted teams in categories such as Budding Innovators, Best Projects, and Best Genesis Products are well positioned for incubation/patents or further development into deployable solutions.
