Empowering Agriculture, One Drone at a Time

From Vision to Reality: The Next-Gen Drone for Smarter Farming

Hey there! We’re a team of five passionate individuals who came together with one mission: to create something innovative and meaningful that can make a difference. Each of us brought our unique skills and perspectives to the table, and together, we’ve built something we’re incredibly proud of—a sustainable, disease-detecting drone.

Team Helioscanx

Driven by Passion, Perfected by Innovation

It all started with a idea—a drone that could detect plant diseases and help farmers while being eco-friendly. We thought it was brilliant, so we worked day and night on it, hoping to make a difference. When we submitted it to a competition, we were so excited and sure it would get selected. But it didn’t. We were crushed.

After all the effort we put in, hearing “no” was hard. For a while, we didn’t know what to do. But then, we realized that this technology already existed. However , we decided to keep going. We worked even harder, fixing the flaws , adding more functionalities and improving the design. We stopped worrying about competitions and started focusing on making our idea something we could be proud of.

We Take Action. To Make Better Changes

In India, farming is more than just a job—it’s a way of life for millions. But every year, farmers lose crops worth ₹50,000 crores to diseases and pests. For small-scale farmers, even one bad harvest can mean crippling debt and an uncertain future. We’ve seen solutions like drones fitted with disease detecting algorithms that help farmers apply pesticides after getting the dat , but they don’t fix the core issue.

 

These machines don't act immediately.So, we wanted to create something that tackles the problem at the very instant —identifying diseases and spraying the right medicine at the right time. It’s not just about technology; it’s about making life easier for the people who work tirelessly to feed us. For us, this project is more than a solution—it’s a way to support the backbone of our country and create a future where farmers don’t just survive, but thrive.

The Tech!!

Smart Technology At The Core

Our UAV blends advanced technology and sustainability to simplify farming and revolutionize crop monitoring. Its lightweight, durable frame ensures stability during long flights, while solar panels and mini wind turbines, managed by an MPPT charge controller and paired with a 14.8V 20,000mAh Li-Po battery, enable extended, energy-efficient operation.

With its ever-evolving disease database, this UAV is a cost-effective, eco-friendly, and intelligent solution to boost crop yields and support sustainable farming.

Meet Our Creative Team

Sandeep Monga

Chief Mentor

Hi, I’m Sandeep Monga, the mentor behind this project. Science has always been a natural pull for me—I’ve leaned towards it not just as a subject but as a way to understand and improve the world around us. As the owner of Intelligent Classes, I’ve spent years sharing that passion with others, helping young minds explore the endless possibilities that science offers.

This project is special because it’s more than just an idea; it’s a step towards creating solutions that matter. It’s about combining human creativity with the beauty of nature to address real challenges in meaningful ways.

Guiding this team has been a deeply rewarding experience. Their energy, ideas, and determination push me to give my best every single day. Together, we’re not just working on a project—we’re building a vision for a better, more sustainable future.

Cofounder Myraa Chugh

Executioner

Hi, I’m Myraa! I’ve always been fascinated by robotics and sustainable engineering, and this project gave me the perfect opportunity to combine both. My role was to figure out how to turn our idea into reality by deciding which components to use and ensuring everything was practical and efficient.

I love making ideas come alive, and seeing our drone take shape has been nothing short of amazing.

Cofounder Reva Shroff

Physicist

I’m Reva, and I’m the team’s go-to person for anything physics-related. I love problem-solving, so I took on the challenge of mapping out the drone’s structure. I created detailed diagrams showing where each component would fit, ensuring everything was perfectly aligned.

For me, it’s all about bringing clarity and precision to complex ideas—and this project was the perfect playground for that.
