Baku, February 19, AZERTAC
Students of Baku Higher Oil School (BHOS) have won the 48-hour international innovation competition “Invent for the Planet 2020”, held in Malaysia.
The team members Ali Yusifov, Elnur Shahbalaev and Nail Karimov took first place in the competition, in which they represented PETRONAS University of Technology (Malaysia).
On the final day of the competition, teams shot 90-second video clips about their projects and presented them for participation in the final round of the “Invent for the Planet” competition, which will be held at Texas A&M University.
Only 5 teams from 38 universities around the world are competing for the right to participate in the final round to be held in Texas, USA.
Ali Yusifov, Elnur Shahbalaev and Nail Karimov are students of PETRONAS Technological University, where they study in the framework of cooperation between Baku Higher Oil School and the Malaysian company PETRONAS, one of the world's leading oil and gas companies.
The solution the students presented to the competition is an intelligent device that older single people can use when they need first aid.
Presently, the project is under improvement.
