Kathmandu. The tech and business carnival “Presidential Innovista 2025” is currently taking place in Kathmandu.

In the exhibition, BSc IT students have showcased 50 projects based on AI, software and web development, cybersecurity, and multimedia. Around 170 students are involved in creating projects with strong technical and commercial potential.

Highlights of the exhibition include an FPV drone for flower showers, Robo Soccer (football-playing robots), a dancing robot (moves to songs), an emotion detection system (AI-based facial emotion recognition that recommends music), the Danphe operating system, an EV bike, a smart home system (automatic alarm and shut-off in case of gas leaks), disaster alert systems for earthquakes, floods, and landslides, as well as NEPSE Predict software.

The drone used for the flower shower during the opening ceremony is planned to be developed further for future use in delivery services, according to the students.

Cybersecurity projects address issues such as online fraud, data leaks, and bank account protection, said KC.

Other showcased innovations include smart irrigation systems and tourism promotion software. The exhibition also features autonomous vehicles with 360-degree cameras that can be controlled remotely.

Organized under the affiliation with Westcliff University, USA, the exhibition is being held at Presidential Graduate School, Thapagaun, Baneshwor, Kathmandu, with the aim of presenting the best student projects, according to the college’s Executive Chairman, Laxman KC.

The exhibition is open to the public free of charge until Sunday.
