Cobot for fuel tank fitment in a vehicle assembly line
A solution is desired to automate this activity which involves picking up the fuel tanks from the trolley, properly orient and place them on the brackets on the vehicle chassis and fasten the clamps to secure the tanks in place. The device used should be safe to operate alongside humans working on the assembly line (cobot).

Challenge details:
In an automobile chassis assembly line, fuel tanks are installed on the chassis of the vehicle. The fuel tank sizes are 200L and 400L depending on the vehicle and the material is either metal or polymer. The fuel tanks are placed on a trolley adjacent to the assembly line (Figure 1). The weight of the fuel tanks can be up to 60kg. The fuel tanks are rolled out from the trolley, lifted and placed on brackets on the vehicle chassis (Figure 2). This activity is done manually and is an ergonomically difficult task.

Non-Invasive Identification and Verification of Underground Cable Joints Prior to Excavation
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.
We are seeking a non‑invasive, above‑ground solution to identify underground cable joints and accurately distinguish the correct live cable among closely spaced cables, without excavation or offline signal injection, to support safe and efficient excavation planning.
Real Time Monitoring of Electrical Systems in Low- or No- Connectivity Remote Locations
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.
We are seeking a solution for reliable monitoring of electrical systems and field operations in low or no network environments, enabling secure offline operation, safety‑critical workflows, and seamless data synchronization once connectivity is available.
Eliminating LPG flame curtains in Annealing furnaces
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.
Gold jewellery annealing is performed in a furnace with a 75% hydrogen and 25% nitrogen atmosphere, where LPG flame curtains are used at the entry to prevent oxygen ingress during loading and unloading. There is a need to eliminate the use of flame curtains without compromising product quality, process stability, or safety. The solution must prevent oxidation, integrate with the existing setup, and enable safe, continuous operation within current spatial and retrofit constraints.
Preventing Elephant Electrocution from Overhead Power Lines
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.
Preventing elephant electrocution by enabling wildlife-safe electrical distribution in forest regions through scalable, infrastructure-based solutions—such as intelligent monitoring, early detection, adaptive insulation, and automated safeguards—designed to operate reliably across remote and challenging environments without direct interaction with wildlife.
