Historic buildings, as non-renewable heritage, carry the history and cultural deposits of a city, and are the city's unrepeatable cultural nameplate. With the rapid advancement of urban construction and economic development, historic buildings are facing serious preservation and inheritance problems. Protecting historic buildings is to retain the cultural lineage of the city, and it will benefit our future generations. The traditional way of protecting historic buildings is mainly through manual methods to map the composition, which requires a lot of manpower, material resources and time and is objectively easy to cause damage to the historic buildings in the process of preservation. 3D laser scanning technology and photogrammetry technology has non-contact, accuracy and rapidity, and virtual reality technology has interoperability. The introduction of 3D laser scanning technology, photogrammetry technology, virtual reality technology, BIM and GIS for refined modeling and management of historic buildings can provide an important means for realizing the preservation and inheritance of historic buildings.
The national issue of finding qualified industrial workers capable of operating complex equipment continues to worsen. The manufacturing sector faces high employee turnover, necessitating the rapid hiring of new personnel. Traditionally, training has been conducted through mentorship: newcomers worked under the supervision of experienced mentors who trained them for weeks or even months. However, this method is not scalable, especially when the number of new workers exceeds the number of experienced mentors. This is precisely the situation we are encountering now. CASPER addresses this problem. Instead of tying a new employee to a mentor, you can provide them with CASPER. The worker can use a smartphone or tablet at the equipment and learn to operate it safely and efficiently through visual instructions right in front of them.
One of the reasons for the increase in morbidity is an unbalanced diet, the lack of low-carbohydrate prescription products of a functional type. The lack of a high-quality and comprehensive offer of a functional product

The PMG mine is located in the North Cape, about 615 kilometers away from Johannesburg. The mine is divided into two parts: the old mining area and the new mining area. The main issues are as follows: The mining area is located in a remote and desolate area, with poor network signal coverage and insufficient infrastructure. The mining area is facing a shortage of manpower and hopes to introduce advanced technology to improve productivity Expect to use AI to actively identify hidden dangers and provide safety protection for production operations in the mining area, in order to reduce safety risks in mining operations. The informatization of the mining area is insufficient, and there is a lack of global visualization management for the entire mining area. We provide the following solutions to solve the above issues: Build a 5G private network to achieve efficient and secure interconnection of production and operation information within the mining area. Introduce AI autonomous driving technology to achieve unmanned truck operation within the designated area, adaptive following of unmanned mining trucks, automatic obstacle avoidance, designated parking, automatic unloading, and unified platform management and scheduling. Build a 5G drone platform to achieve intelligent inspection of mining areas, including progress inspection, exploration assistance, quality acceptance, deformation and collapse warning, emergency rescue reconnaissance, and other functions. By utilizing these advanced 5G+AI platforms, the productivity of production operations and safe operations within the mining area has been significantly improved. Install intelligent monitoring at key locations in the mining area, with AI active video analysis and alarm, and use intelligent monitoring systems for unified management. In the production process and transportation sections，slope detection technology is used to predict the risk of slope collapse or landslide through real-time video/image sampling and artificial intelligence analysis. Early warning and notification are provided to prevent potential risks. Construct a comprehensive digital data center for mines and set up an integrated big data fusion platform for mining digital brain. This platform will build a three-dimensional visualization platform (digital twin) for the mining area, enabling unified operation and management of related platforms for subsequent construction within the data center, with unified platform interfaces and panoramic visualization control.
Problem: Rice is a staple food for half the world's population. 5,000 liters of water are required to produce 1kg of rice. Transplanted rice (TPR) accounts for 12% of global methane emissions, accelerates eutrophication & reduces nutrient use efficiency. Rice farming practices need to be updated to facilitate greater mechanization because of reduction in labour availability Solution: KisanKraft has developed new varieties of DDSR. DSR wasn’t successful because farmers were using the TPR varieties in DSR conditions which resulted in yield penalties. There was a need to develop varieties that were suitable for DDSR conditions. We are one of few organizations developing varieties of DDSR & machinery to manage weeds. DDSR varieties can be developed by crossing lines with the drought-tolerance & high yield. Our R&D started with collecting rice lines from various locations & then screening them for drought resistance & yield, using 3 methods: 1. ROOT STUDIES: Plants were sown in PVC pipes for root traits 2. FIELD STUDIES: Plants were grown in field for yield characters 3. MOLECULAR STUDIES: Marker Assisted Selection was done. Crosses were made after analysing the data. Resulting progenies were advanced till they become stable. This resulted in 15 varieties suitable for DDSR condition. Many more such varieties are in the pipeline. FARM MECHANIZATION: The newly developed attachment is a modification of the hoe cutter. The attachment was designed to be used between the rows of the DDSR. Further, other machines suitable for DDSR were made available to the farmers, like Seed drills, Sprayers, harvesters. This in turn resulted in increased farm efficiency. RESULTS: 1. New DDSR Varieties: Now, there are 15 varieties that are suitable for DDSR 2. Farm mechanization: The newly developed hoe cutter eased the problem of weed management in DDSR condition. The availability of whole range of farm machinery solutions increased farm efficiency 3. Water & labor saving: Reduced water use by 50-60%: No puddling, no nursery, no transplanting, no standing water at any stage of crop growth reduces water requirement. This also reduced labor requirement 4. Eco-friendly: Methane emission in this method of rice production is almost eliminated 5. Sustainability: No water outflow increases fertilizer use efficiency & eliminates eutrophication of water bodies. It also reduces the outbreak of pests & diseases, reducing pesticide consumption, making this a sustainable form of rice cultivation 6. Reduced seed rate: 8-10 kg seeds per acre compared to 25 kg per acre in TPR 7. Improved Soil Health: Crop rotation & Inter-cropping with pulses are possible. The absence of puddling preserves the soil structure. These improve soil health & fertility 8. Increased Income: Reduction in input costs & labour, reduces the cost of rice cultivation. These DDSR varieties yield like the TPR varieties. With reduced cost & the same yield, the overall profit of the farmer has increased significantly
Problem: o Inaccurate recordkeeping of mineworkers in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), hence the mining industry loosing contact with former mineworkers; o Inefficient and ineffective processing of unclaimed mineworkers lung disease benefits; o Unnecessary benefit medical examination (BME) submissions into the MBOD due to unknown service records for former mineworkers; o Difficult CCOD claim finalisation due to the unknown whereabouts of former mineworkers; and o Subsequent fraud due to the above. Implemented Solution: CCMS is an end-to-end web-based electronic workflow platform that facilities the paperless processing of occupational lung disease claims. CCMS is role and transaction-based allowing for the segregation of duties per functionality area and which allows for data input, processing and calculations, document output, and reporting through dashboards and data outputs. Medical content including x-ray images are stored against the mineworker record. Implemented at the Tshiamiso Trust in November 2020, followed by the MBOD in July 2021.

1. Some users think our app is designed only to search for viruses and malware, whereas it actually provides comprehensive security for a device. It was an exciting insight to learn some users see a security app for their 21st-century device solely as a program with 20th-century functionality. 2. The second problem is somewhat related to the first, but we’d like to consider it separately as we found it only after analyzing app metrics: paid users don’t see and never use some of the features they paid for. We did our best to find a solution to both problems that wouldn’t require too many development resources. One solution was to design a feature that would check the security settings of the device and detect unconfigured features of our app — it could suggest unused features to the user and draw their attention to them. It could help the user quickly fix the identified vulnerabilities, which in turn should improve their digital security while simultaneously attracting new customers for our business.
