【Event Recap】INNO-AI Competition 2025-26 Concludes Successfully – Students Promote Tech Accessibility with AI Solutions

The competition was structured around four sequential learning stages, providing participating teams with a holistic hands-on experience. In the first stage, teams conducted in‑depth research on the "Technology for Accessibility" theme, identifying specific pain points in the daily lives and work environments of persons with disabilities. Areas of focus included reading and recognition, navigation and mobility, limb control, and daily self‑care. Subsequently, teams were required to conceive corresponding AI‑based solutions, freely exploring the feasible applications of various artificial intelligence technologies.

During the prototype development stage, teams utilised the designated hardware kits to create their AI prototypes, which were iteratively tested and refined. Finally, on the competition day, teams presented and demonstrated their work to a panel of professional judges, responding to questions in real time.

The organisers were honoured to have Mr. Chan Wing Tak, teacher at Cheng Yu Tung Secondary School of the Shunde Fraternity Association, and Mr. Ka Shun Ng, Curriculum Manager of Trumptech, serve as judges. The judging panel provided insightful comments and valuable recommendations to each team from a professional standpoint, greatly benefiting the participants. Assessment was based on four key criteria: Concept and Rationale, AI and Technology Application, Model Design, and Presentation Skills, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of each project's innovation, feasibility, and clarity of communication.
