Lee Hsien Loong Interactive Digital Media Smart Nation Award (LHL-IDM Smart Nation Award) 2021

The LHL-IDM Smart Nation Award for 2021 was won by a group of students from the Republic Polytechnic - School of Engineering (RP-SEG). This award is to recognize full-time polytechnic students who have completed Interactive Digital Media projects that fulfil the Smart Nation vision of harnessing technology to improve the lives of citizens, create more opportunities, and build stronger communities.

The team, from SEG-DEEE and Electronics IG, developed a Smart AI Detector system that combines commonly required functions of face recognition, with mask detection, thermal scanning, safety headgear detection and cigarette detection. The Smart AI Detector is based on the open-source program Yolov5 model, which takes in commonly available form inputs like image files, videos, online streaming or live videos from a camera or CCTV video feeds. The software captures video feeds from the camera frame by frame. After the software performs the detection, the output is shown on the live feed by indicative boxes around the objects being detected. A smart algorithm is used in this detection process to identify whether the person is wearing a mask or, smoking a cigarette, thereby detecting the illegal activity. This solution can be used to enhance and complement the monitoring and usage of CCTV systems.


Under the guidance of Zi Shuo (EIG President for AY2020/2021) with his team, they had won the Lee Hsien Loong Interactive Digital Media Smart Nation Award (LHL-IDM Smart Nation Award) for 2021. 

Congrats, Zi Shuo, Razii Rasheed, Krishnadas Manoj and Ma Chenxin! You have made the EIG EXCO members proud and inspired by your achievement.
