Elevator pitch

—

What is your solution?

Firstly we need to fill all information of a person with image of his face to a website ,I know that it would be very difficult to just fill these information of each and every person, but we need to do it just one time, because afterwards when any person will try to change information in birth certificates or anywhere than information about that person in the website would also be changed. I know that you would be thinking that in this case anyone can see the information, but the answer is no, because the website will only be available to the police officers and to government only. Than we just need to attach the video of the home or street camera in which the thief is caught. After doing so, it will automatically try to recognize faces that are present inside the video and it will show all information regarding those faces, the phone no., house address etc. And the police officers can now catch the thief very easily. Sometimes, when the face of the thief in not visible clearly,the website will try to recognize face and will show possible results.

What specific problem are you trying to solve?

Sometimes, the face of the thief is recorded in the home camera or in the street camera, but than also it is very difficult to identify and to catch the thief. In some of the cases the thief caught in the camera is caught by the police, but in many of the cases they are not caught.

Who does your solution serve? In what ways will the solution impact their lives?

There will be an authorized web page that can be only used by authorized people like police officers to identify thiefs or lost children. Nowdays police officers usually check there old records that take a lot of time to identify.

Our solution will search for the pic they want to identify in our web page. When the pic.is identified it will give all the details of person like his house address, phone number ,mainly all the details is his or her identity card.

What steps have you taken to understand the needs of the population you want to serve?

I have done some surveys with police officers and local people.Police officers said that it takes roo mich time to identify thiefs. Local people told that till the timw thief is identified he or she just go out of the city or state.

I have also done online surveys as due to covid it was not possible to do many offline surveys.

Which aspects of the Challenge does your solution most closely address?

Other: Addressing an unmet social, environmental, or economic need not covered in the four dimensions above

What is the unmet need that your solution tried to address? Why is it important?

As you all know that these days, a lot of thefts are increasing day by day. A lot of missions have been started by the government to control these thefts. But, according to the google results, in 15 seconds one house burglary occurs which means that in one day 4800 house burglary occurs. There are many gadgets that are launched by many companies, to protect our houses, but they are too costly that a common man can’t buy them.
