Sustainable packaging material for internal logistics of jewellery articles
We are seeking innovative, cost effective solutions that can prevent in-transit damages to jewellery articles by restricting their motion within the packaging. The packaging solution must be made of sustainable materials and be reusable if possible with low cost. Due to large variety of jewellery designs, it is desired that any packaging solution must be suitable for a broad range of shapes and sizes of jewellery to minimize the total number of SKUs.

Reward money is paid in exchange of legally acquiring the solution, implementing it to solve the problem and meeting the success criteria. Milestones for paying the reward money would depend upon the complexity of challenge and maturity of the proposed solution, which would be discussed with the solver as soon as the proposed solution is selected by us.

Challenge details:
The jewellery industry manufactures several types of articles like necklace, bangles, finger rings, etc. Each of these categories of articles can have numerous designs and can thus have a large variety of shapes, sizes and weights. Before final delivery to the customers from the stores, these jewellery articles undergo internal logistics between factory, warehouse and retail stores. Some stages of internal logistics also involve handling by external courier companies. During such internal logistics, delicate pieces of jewellery such as studded articles, soft gold bangles, etc. get distorted/damaged (ref. images) due to internal movement within the packaing box. Due to large volumes, the packaging used for this purpose has to be of low cost and reusable if possible. This is different from the customer facing jewellery cases which are expensive and cannot be used for internal logistics.
We are seeking innovative, cost effective solutions that can prevent such in-transit damages by restricting the motion of the jewellery articles within the packaging. The packaging solution must be made of sustainable materials and be reusable if possible with low cost. Due to large variety of jewellery designs, it is desired that any packaging solution must be suitable for a broad range of shapes and sizes of jewellery to minimize the total number of SKUs.
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.
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.
Early prediction of fire risk in EV lithium-ion batteries
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.
Sealed lithium-ion battery packs/cells based on LFP chemistry and prismatic cell format are stored at approximately 40% state of charge in a warehouse environment.We are seeking solutions that can provide early warning of thermal instability or potential fire risk in sealed lithium-ion batteries during warehouse storage and during transportation from supplier to factory.
Slag Pot Crack Detection
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.
Slag pots used in blast furnace operations are prone to crack formation due to extreme temperatures, thermal cycling, and mechanical stresses. Current manual inspection methods are subjective and may miss critical defects. The challenge is to develop an automated, non-contact solution to accurately detect, classify, and report cracks on slag pots in a high-temperature steel plant environment, enabling safer and more reliable operations.
Automated Scotching System for Torpedo Ladles
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.
Torpedo ladles used for hot metal transportation are currently secured using manually placed wooden scotch blocks, exposing operators to significant safety risks from moving equipment, high temperatures, and pinch points. The plant operates 51 torpedo ladles of varying sizes, with scotching requirements differing based on wheel position and track gradient.The challenge is to develop an automated, remotely operated scotching system integrated onto the torpedo ladle itself, capable of deploying and retracting scotch blocks without manual intervention. The solution must be self-powered, operate reliably in harsh steel plant conditions (up to ~250°C), withstand heat, dust, and sparks, be fail-safe during emergencies, and either use existing wooden scotch blocks or a suitable alternative material with equal or better performance. Modifications to existing equipment or infrastructure may be considered.
