KRITRIM – Working Model

About the Event

KRITRIM is a Working Model event where teams design and build functional prototypes to solve real-world problems using modern technological solutions. The model or prototype must be in working condition during the presentation before the judging committee.

Teams must demonstrate how their model operates and explain how it produces the intended results.

Along with the working model, participants must submit a hard copy of a detailed report containing:

• Main Concept of the Solution
• Working Principle
• Construction Materials
• Cost Estimation of the Project
• Applications
• Circuit Diagram / 3D Design (if applicable)
• Code Flowchart or Working Logic (if applicable)

Participants may optionally integrate AI/Machine Learning features into their projects to enhance their solutions. Relevant implementation of AI/ML may also provide additional value during evaluation.
