QU Students Win 2nd Runner Up in Local Microsoft Imagine Cup Competition 2022
February 26, 2022 / Leave a comment
A team from QU, called Oryx, came second runner up in the local Microsoft Imagine Cup 2022. Imagine Cup brings together, every year, student innovators using passion and purpose to tackle social issues with tech. Each team creates an innovative solution from start to finish, while competing on a global stage for the title of World Champion. The Oryx team includes Raseena Haris, Jayakanth Kunhoth, Bajeela Aejas, and Najmath Ottakath. The team created Qalbee, a mobile system app for the early prediction of heart disorder risk, under the Health category. Using real-time ECG signals with the help of artificial intelligence algorithms.
The proposed system consists of a smart wearable band and a smartphone application. The smart wearable band is equipped with an ECG sensor and Bluetooth sensor. The embedded ECG sensor continuously records the impulses of the heart and transfers them to the smartphone application via Bluetooth. The smart application communicates with the AI decision-making model deployed in the cloud to predict the abnormality from the processed ECG signal. Upon detecting an anomalous heart rate, the user can be alerted along with authorities for further analysis or immediate action saving a life. The AI model is developed using a latest machine learning algorithm trained on the ECG dataset acquired from the public domain.
Congratulations for the team members!
