Challenge

For over 60 years, the International Olympiads have brought together more than 3,000 talented students every year to celebrate science, But during the “black days” period when phones and devices are taken away, and all communication  with the outside world is cut off, students face boredom, stress, and isolation. Hosts struggle with keeping olympians engaged, safe, and on time. Parents worry constantly. 

There is no smart solution that connects everyone while keeping the Olympiads phone-free!

Challenges currently faced include:

• Waking students up on time
• Localization during excursions
• Easy communication despite language barriers
• Last-minute schedule modifications
• Exam logistics management
• Boredom during downtime
• Ensuring a phone-free environment for students
• Emergency situations
• Parental & Mentors concerns

  Oly-Watch is a pioneering smartwatch platform designed to enhance the experience of international science Olympiad participants. The solution addresses critical challenges faced by students during competitions, such as disconnection, safety concerns, and lack of engagement, due to the strict ban on phones and electronic communication.
