  3. AR Assistive Autonomous Bot for Immersive Hands-Free Shopping – revolutionizes the shopping experience through the integration of cutting-edge technologies. Users will leverage AR technology through their mobile devices to gain comprehensive product insights. By scanning items with their devices, users can access detailed information such as product specifications, reviews, pricing, and availability in real-time. This AR-assisted product exploration enhances the shopping experience by empowering users to make informed purchasing decisions. The autonomous bot features advanced mobile tracking capabilities that enable seamless navigation through the shopping environment. Users can initiate the "Follow Me" mode, allowing the bot to autonomously track their movements throughout the store without the need for manual management. This hands-free navigation enhances convenience and accessibility for all shoppers, including those with mobility limitations. A robust billing system is integrated into the autonomous bot, allowing users to complete transactions directly through the cart.
  4. IoT enabled Game Model: Game for all is the motive to develop this model. Children can play either individually or as a team to shoot the ball in the goal. Sensors are placed to identify the shoots and award the scores automatically. Leaderboard is displayed and boosting audios are played for each shoot to encourage the players. This game improves concentration and makes the children happier and healthier to lead their life successfully. This game can be played as a team to promote social skills and teamwork. Games are designed to promote the self confidence and self-esteem of the children with varying physical difficulties. They can play the game without the support of others and this game improves the Brain body coordination and enables fast recovery in autism, spinal cord injuries, and stroke affected children.
