Our student E. Mavridis (11th Grade) received an honorary distinction at the 2026 Metropolitan College Student Research & Innovation Symposium for his research and engineering project titled InduNoise. For the same project, he was also awarded at the 12th ACSTAC Student Conference on Science & Technology, receiving the Entrepreneurship Award.
His project focuses on the development of the InduNoise application (indunoise.com), an intelligent acoustic signal‑processing system primarily designed for industrial use, with additional potential applications in environmental monitoring and noise‑pollution tracking in smart cities.
The application is based on artificial intelligence and machine learning, and its most innovative feature is that it processes audio locally, without transmitting raw audio data or personal information to central systems but only the analysis results.
The project received highly positive evaluations for its research questions, methodology, interpretation of results, and overall presentation. Its alignment with sustainable development goals, as well as its professional structure and writing, were also highlighted.
At the same time, the student is an active member of the FTC ThunderBolts robotics team, which won 3rd place in the Inspire Award and secured qualification for the World Championship in Istanbul this summer. The team’s distinction is posted on the official FIRST page: https://ftc-events.firstinspires.org/2025/team/28490
