At the Tech4Good Asia- Pacific Awards Ceremony organized by Huawei in Shenzhen (China), the Vietnamese team with the SkyNet project - supporting the search for flood victims won first prize, advancing to the Global Finals in 2025.
With this well-deserved achievement, participants will also receive startup funding opportunities, participate in an experience trip to China, and participate in “1:1” discussions with Huawei leaders.
The Vietnamese team consisted of 6 students from 4 leading universities in Vietnam, including Mai Thi Phuong, Nguyen Thi Thu Trang and Dinh Hoang Anh (Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology); Pham Quynh Trang (VinUni University); Cao Sy Duong ( Hanoi University of Science and Technology) and Tran Dang Nam (Ho Chi Minh City University of Transport).
The SkyNet project is developed based on the application of drones, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and AI technology to support faster and smarter search and rescue of victims in flooded areas. The project is developed with the criteria: High-resolution image acquisition, stable mobile data transmission and real-time data reporting. The cost of developing SkyNet is also optimally calculated to bring economic benefits and diverse application scenarios when commercialized to the market.
Mr. Macky Zhang, General Director of Huawei Vietnam shared: “We are very proud that after the “seed” Vietnam won the first place in the group, proving their individual capacity through the impressive SkyNet project and inspiring other young talents to actively transform creative ideas into national practices. The exciting global final stage is waiting for you to show and shine even brighter”.
