ITEL Foundation

HASHTIC is built as a comfortable, green electricity-driven, cost-effective, energy-efficient mode of transport, which can scale to the peak-traffic requirement of a city and still provide a commute of 15 kilometres in 20 minutes. It also addresses last-mile connectivity. This autonomous pod system built on light-weight elevated tracks involves scientists from multiple institutions, start-ups, and established industry.

The solution aims to make city drainage systems smarter by using technology for early detection and removal of blockages, real-time monitoring, and suggesting design improvements to ensure rainwater absorption and optimal additions of drains.

These solutions use the Carnot-cycle in heat-pumps and chillers for simultaneous heating and cooling applications, making them far more energy-efficient. The goal is to design and develop products that are energy-efficient and no more expensive than existing fossil-fuel driven products.

ICAN consists of scientists, researchers, and experts at leading academic institutions, working to fortify India's cybersecurity infrastructure. It focuses on a Faculty Training Program for tier-2 engineering colleges, Industry-Academia Collaboration to develop Indian-designed solutions for real-world challenges, and Government Partnerships for policy reforms, training, and guiding start-ups.

ITEL is working to enable inclusion across multiple dimensions, including Visual Impairment, Hearing Impairment, Mobility Impairment, Learning Disability, and an AI-powered Avatar for individuals with Autism. The commitment is to create many more affordable and high-quality assistive technologies to improve daily living.
