GreenWay

Our team focuses on providing better road experience specially for old people and patiens. Its based on our algorithims built for data calculation on android phones.

The problem GreenWay solves

The idea originated once when my(Kaustubh) grandma was travelling from our home to a place around 65 kms. Though, we knew many paths to reach the same place (from GoogleMaps), but the problem in front was not the path or the distance but rather the quality of road as whole (one or two potholes didn’t matter but rather the longer road patches of good / bad roads). This problem is daily faced by patients and old people especially with problems like slip disc.

Our first will monitor aim is to provide assistance service to hospitals and ambulances. Whenever an ambulance would be used, the app will take input of patient's condition and display the most preferable path.

Challenges we ran into

Though there are many research papers and products around in the market which are working in same direction but :

-> Most of them are taking data using dedicated attachment to vehicles like car which is expensive as well as infeasible to be installed in such large number of automobiles
-> Above 90% are developing algorithms of “Pothole Detection” are for the foreign countries where there are hardly any potholes on the road.

Also there are no good algorithms availaible for real time monitoring of road and producing results.
