The panel of judges chose GoReMas Enterprise from Malaysia as the first prize winner and Wangi Lai PLT from Malaysia as the second prize winner.<\/p>\n

1^{st<\/sup> Prize \u2013 GoReMas Enterprise, Malaysia<\/p>\n}

GoReMas Enterprise\u2019s prototype, Floodsensed, is an IoT flood monitoring system with social media alerts such as Facebook, Slack, and Telegram, YouTube Live Stream etc. This equipment gathers critical data such as rain volumes, water levels, temperature, barometric pressure from the devices and nodes, sending the crucial data to the Floodsensed IoT platform for users.<\/p>\n

I had a chat with GoReMas Enterprise when I was visiting the Innovation Showcase. I find their idea and design to be very useful for countries that have regions prone to flooding.<\/p>\n

2^{nd<\/sup> Prize \u2013 Wangi Lai PLT, Malaysia<\/p>\n}

The 2^{nd<\/sup> prize innovative solution\/design is the BAWA cane, a clip-on module for existing white canes, helping the blind and visually impaired identify and avoid obstacles with shared insights and foresights through data and analysis.<\/p>\n}

During the media interview with Wangi Lai PLT, he shared more on how the BAWA cane works and how their BAWA cane is helping the blind and visually impaired. Hopefully, with this prize win, the BAWA cane is able to make a difference and bigger impact to the blind and visually impaired people around the world.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s great to see Singapore hosting such a hackathon, with Infineon and LG partnering together to drive technological advancements and growth in the IoT solutions segment. This also showcase Singapore\u2019s vibrant ecosystem as a startup hub with many partners based here.<\/p>\n

The IoT solutions is an area that has a huge potential to grow bigger and wider in scope in this current and future market and technological developments. Infineon LG <\/> Make Hackathon on IoT, the inaugural hackathon held in Singapore, is a testimonial to that development and growth.<\/p>\n

I look forward to Infineon and LG pushing forward ahead to create and grow the future of IoT solutions together through future Infineon LG <\/> Make Hackathons.<\/p>\n
