Q. Recently, which IIT has developed a 'Crowd Eye' device that can send alerts when the number of pilgrims exceeds the capacity of shrines?
Answer: IIT Roorkee
Notes: IIT Roorkee developed the 'Crowd Eye' device to manage increasing pilgrim footfall at Char Dham shrines, starting with Yamunotri. This device provides real-time crowd monitoring. A funding request has been submitted to UCOST for installation. The project, costing 60-70 thousand rupees, awaits budget approval and patenting. Future updates will include gender differentiation in crowd data. Surveys in Haridwar address traffic congestion during the pilgrimage season.
