IIT Madras to offer mentorship, support to students admitted through FACE, ScOpE

The Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) has admitted nine students to its BTech programmes through the Fine Arts and Culture Excellence (FACE) admissions scheme for the first time this year. Under the scheme, two seats per programme are allotted in all BTech and BS courses – one reserved for female candidates and the other gender-neutral. The objective of FACE admission is to reward and encourage students who have achieved excellence in fine arts and culture. Candidates who opted to be treated at par with Indian nationals during JEE Advanced 2025 registration were eligible for FACE admission and had to apply via the dedicated portal – Alongside FACE, the institute runs the 'Science Olympiad Excellence' (ScOpE) scheme and had earlier introduced the Sports Excellence Admission (SEA) from the 2024-25 academic year, becoming the first IIT to offer a dedicated pathway for sports persons. SEA requires students to qualify JEE Advanced, however, admissions are handled through a separate IIT Madras portal, instead of the JoSAA system. These admissions are offered through supernumerary seats, ensuring that the overall intake via JEE Advanced remains unchanged. Students admitted to IIT Madras through ScOPE, who are often academically inclined, receive guidance under the institute's regular faculty advisor scheme at the institute. For the newly joined FACE students this year, a mentorship structure similar to that for sports excellence admissions has been designed, focusing on nurturing their talents and encouraging participation in relevant programmes and competitions, the institute said. 'Support to nurture their talents will be enabled and they will be encouraged to participate in suitable programmes and competitions,' the was told. The initiatives have drawn positive responses from parents, with several appreciating the alternative routes to IIT Madras for students excelling in sports, fine arts, or Olympiads. As these schemes are only in their first and second year respectively, their wider impact is still taking shape.

IIT Delhi's new method to cut textile waste, recycle discarded denims to good quality garments

New Delhi: A team of researchers from IIT Delhi has developed a new method to recycle denim waste to knitted garments without compromising quality. The findings will also help reduce textile waste -- the discarded textiles and clothing after their use -- which end up in landfills. India accumulates around 3.9 million tonnes of domestic post-consumer textile waste annually, of which only 4 per cent is recycled. Those recycled lose fibre strength and face variability in colour and quality. However, with the novel method, the IIT researchers found that up to 50 per cent of recycled yarns can be used in knitted clothing without deteriorating the feel of the product. 'To reduce the roughness of recycled yarns, a softening treatment was applied to the fabric, which ensured that the tactile feel of the final product is the same as that of virgin products, said Prof Abhijit Majumdar, Dept. of Textiles and Fibre Engineering, IIT Delhi. 'We have demonstrated our work with denim waste, and it can be extended with any other textile waste,' he added. In the study, detailed in the Journal of Cleaner Production, the team recycled waste denim into yarns, ensuring minimum damage to the fibre properties by optimising the process conditions. Recycled yarns were then blended into knitted fabric using the seamless whole garment technology. Knitted garments were produced, varying the recycled yarn content from 25 per cent to 75 per cent. Another key aspect of this research was to quantify the environmental benefits through life cycle assessment (LCA) in the Indian context. Analysis by the IIT Delhi team showed that around 30-40 per cent of environmental impacts can be mitigated in terms of greenhouse gas emission, acid rain, and fossil fuel depletion, whereas for ozone layer depletion, it is around 60 per cent. As the use of recycled fibres could reduce the use of virgin cotton, the pesticides, fertilisers and water used for cultivation can also be saved. Among the processes involved, the cotton cultivation stage itself contributes 24 per cent to global warming, making the virgin yarns less environment-friendly. 'The research team is now exploring the possibility of recycling textile waste materials multiple times,' added Prof B.S. Butola, Dept. of Textile and Fibre Engineering, IIT Delhi.

Students build real-time crowd risk prediction system

Public safety in crowded spaces is often reactive — dependent on human surveillance or delayed interventions. Five students of Mohan Babu University — Medupally Dileep Reddy, Neelapu Herambudu, Badugulla Mohammad Sameer, Tumbali Jyotsna, and Ambati Rupa Sridevi — decided to tackle this challenge head-on with an innovative AI-Based Crowded Area Risk Prediction System. Their system uses the YOLOv5s AI model and a Raspberry Pi camera to detect crowd density, instantly classify risk levels, and send automated alerts when overcrowding is detected. What makes it unique is that it sends alerts via WhatsApp, Telegram, or SMS to help prevent dangerous situations in spaces like malls, stadiums, or transit hubs. Running entirely on the edge with no cloud dependency, it ensures both speed and cost-efficiency. A companion mobile app, built using Flutter, enables real-time monitoring, heatmap visualisation, and live video feeds, making it practical for on-the-go security teams. With a working model already developed and mentored by Dr. N. Padmaja and Dr. T.V.S. Gowtham Prasad from the AICTE IDEA Lab, this project is a scalable, smart-city-ready solution for proactive crowd management. Excerpts from an interview How did the project take shape, and what were some key turning points during its development? The idea emerged from a shared observation: overcrowding is a persistent safety risk in public spaces. Manual monitoring is slow, prone to error, and resource-intensive. The team envisioned an automated, AI-driven alternative. A critical decision was selecting the Raspberry Pi 4 for processing, enabling real-time edge computing without cloud reliance — improving both response speed and privacy. Integrating YOLOv5s allowed accurate people detection and counting from live video feeds. Key turning points included: • Creating a Low, Medium, High risk classification system based on density thresholds. • Adding Telegram API alerts for instant notifications. • Developing a Flask-based dashboard for visualisation. • Introducing QR codes so the public could check live crowd status. These additions turned the concept into a deployable safety tool aligned with smart city goals. How did the idea evolve into a functional working model? Initially, the concept was a basic detection system for malls and transport hubs. Research revealed that offline, low-cost, and scalable were essential design goals. Raspberry Pi became the hardware backbone, and the YOLOv5s model was fine-tuned to run efficiently on limited hardware without sacrificing accuracy. Once detection was achieved, the team built a risk classification algorithm linked to instant alerts via Telegram. The model grew into a complete platform by: • Adding Flask-based dashboards for live visuals and heatmaps. • Integrating QR codes for citizen access to crowd data. • Designing modularity for deployment in varied environments, from stadiums to rural gatherings. How does the system help local authorities or citizens respond faster in high-risk situations? The system continuously processes live footage, counting individuals and assessing risk in real time. When a high-risk threshold is reached, automatic alerts are sent to designated security personnel, including images and location data. For citizens, scanning a QR code at an entry point provides immediate updates on current crowd density, helping them make informed choices. Key features enabling rapid response include: • Edge-based processing for minimal delay. • Heatmap visualisation for quick situational awareness. • Automated alerts to reduce reliance on human monitoring. What role can this system play in smart cities and densely populated rural areas? In smart cities, it can integrate into existing safety frameworks — linking with emergency services, public display boards, and IoT infrastructure. In semi-urban or rural areas, where surveillance resources may be scarce, the system's low cost and offline capability make it valuable for managing crowds at festivals, markets, or public meetings. Potential applications include: • Early warnings to prevent stampedes. • Data to support urban planning and traffic management. • Integration with local emergency protocols. Why was delivering real public value as important as technical success? The team aimed for impact over demonstration. Overcrowding can lead to tragic consequences, especially in under-monitored areas. The system was built to be accessible, affordable, and practical, ensuring use beyond well-funded urban centres. Public value was prioritised by: • Designing for offline use, avoiding reliance on high-speed internet. • Using open-source tools to keep costs low. • Including citizen-facing features like QR code updates. By focusing on safety, inclusivity, and adaptability, the project ensures its benefits extend beyond technical achievement. Key features of the project •Core Technology:YOLOv5s AI model on Raspberry Pi 4 for real-time crowd detection. •Risk Classification:Automatic categorisation into Low, Medium, or High risk. •Alerts: Instant notifications via WhatsApp, Telegram, or SMS to security teams. •Public Access:QR codes for citizens to check live crowd status. •Offline Capability: No cloud dependency for faster response and better privacy. •Visualisation Tools:Mobile app and Flask dashboard with heatmaps, video feeds, and risk levels. • Application Areas:Malls, stadiums, railway stations, markets, religious gatherings, and festivals. • Scalability:Adaptable to urban, semi-urban, and rural environments with minimal setup costs. This student-led innovation shows how practical, human-centred design can transform a technical concept into a life-saving tool. By combining real-time AI detection, instant alerts, and public accessibility, the AI-Based Crowded Area Risk Prediction System stands as an example of technology designed for community safety in the realworld.
