Team Titan<\/strong> secured second place in the Autodesk Designathon<\/strong> for their idea, a compact, solar-powered, hydroponic farming system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students representing Obafemi Awolowo University,<\/strong> Nigeria, designed a system comprising solar panel for energy supply, connected to a small hydroponic unit where crops are grown in a nutrient-rich, water-based solution, eliminating the need for soil.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mechanical engineering students from Team Titan, Alao Kolawole<\/strong>, Julia Daramola<\/strong>, and Oluwaseun Adeyera<\/strong>, took part in the two-day Designathon organised by Autodesk and KnowledgePoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked about the competition and their concept, the team said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Designing a product for growing crops using renewable energy in Fusion was a mixture of sustainability and innovation. It underscored the incredible potential of combining cutting-edge design technology with renewable energy to revolutionise agriculture. This experience was a vivid reminder that the future of eco-friendly farming is not just a concept, but a tangible reality within our grasp.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concept for a portable product for growing crops using renewable energy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students were challenged to design a concept for a portable product for growing crops using renewable energy.\u00a0Team Titan\u2019s design is a compact, solar-powered, hydroponic farming system. Portability is achieved through a lightweight, collapsible frame with wheels, allowing easy movement and reconfiguration. The design integrates sensors and automated controls for nutrient and pH level management, ensuring optimal growing conditions while leveraging renewable energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expert view<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Designathon concepts were judged by an expert panel including representatives from Autodesk and KnowledgePoint. The judges were impressed by the quality of the student submissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commenting on Team Titan\u2019s entry, the judges said: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis project was one of our favourites aesthetically. The team applied high attention to details while modelling with Fusion and did a great job in generating photo-realistic renderings. It was also one of the best projects in terms of portability. Additionally, the team considered the manufacturability of the product in their design.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
