Our startups cover various areas and directions, such as space industry, military, education, medicine, agriculture, transport, video games, and new technologies in general.
Turkish Minister of Industry and Technology Mustafa Varank visited our national pavilion and got acquainted with Azerbaijani startups.
It should be noted that the Teknofest – Aerospace and Technology Festival will end on September 26.
The “Victory Road” space station model of the 8th grade student of the Modern Education Complex named after Heydar Aliyev, demonstrated at the festival, consists of a basic control module and a telescopic structural system. Additional spherical parts are located inside each other when the station is sent into space. When the required height is reached, the telescopic structural mechanism is activated and puts the station into operation. In the future, additional modules can be integrated into the overall system without any problems, depending on demand. This capability is provided by a standard connection mechanism, and the energy demand is fully met by solar panels located on the main module of the station and on the globe modules.
The Agro Dron, provided by Idrak Technology Transfer, is capable of photographing and treating the area for 40 minutes in an agricultural setting. A smart board is a device that consists of an interactive screen (touchscreen), a video projector, a computer, and special software. Smart Meters are smart meters within the Smart Meter AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure). These meters will lay the foundation for the creation of the National Intelligent Measurement Infrastructure, the connection of any type of meter (electricity, water, gas) to a single network. “Smart glasses” serve to make life easier for visually impaired people. At present, glasses can translate from text to speech and from speech to text.
The “Strike” project is being developed to conduct tactical and strategic exercises of the Air Force, as well as to test the scenario of military operations in virtual reality. The Impact Complex provides opportunities for multiple pilots to conduct joint exercises, regardless of their location, as well as to study the area where the flights will take place in advance. The complex consists of virtual reality-based software and a capsule that can rotate around 3 axes.
Introduced as part of the Climate project, the Climate 1.0 device measures air temperature and humidity using an external wired sensor. These indicators are transmitted to the user’s personal account via mobile network (GPRS). Climate 2.0 is equipped with a large number of different types of wireless sensors and Wi-Fi cameras. There are currently 2 types of sensors: air temperature / humidity sensor and ground moisture sensor. The sensors transmit the read information to the user’s personal account via the host device to which they are connected.
The Safee Bike is an innovative and patented signage projector concept designed for the safety of bicycle users. With Safee, the cyclist can display the appropriate warning signs on his back.
Viastellar solutions are based on the development and production of small satellites (CubeSat, Pocketsat) from design to launch (Roskosmos, SpaceX). The peculiarity of the company’s technology is the invented optics. To date, image quality up to 2 meters (GSD @ 500km) in 3U satellite size has been achieved. A semi-model of the 3U satellite (hull and batt) will be demonstrated at the festival.
HealWith is a mobile application that detects plant diseases with the help of artificial intelligence by simply taking pictures and showing appropriate treatment methods. HealWith plays the role of a “pocket agronomist” in a sense, helping people with disabilities, especially those in need of social security, to develop their farms, saving time and budget.
The SmogFree cigarette box consists of a mobile phone app that controls the device, a database, and a website. The goal is to first examine the user’s habits, and then, when the person is ready, based on a selected algorithm, gradually increase the time between smoking breaks, resulting in weakening the habit and limiting smoking completely.
LOF studios’ Battle of Bots project is a video game in the genre of mass multiplayer online bot warfare.
The Smart Parking IoT project, which is an IoT system for urban parking, consists of 2 parking sensors, 2 car sensors, and 1 GSM modem.
GSM Smart Electric – AMR ST 13 is an automatic meter counter.
