The competition for secondary school students has been organised by the Hungarian Association for Innovation for decades. This year, more than two hundred students submitted over 150 entries. The final of the reformed competition took place at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. 
As an innovation-oriented company, Egis has been supporting this renowned competition almost from the beginning. The entries usually discuss several topics, with a wide range of them related to technical disciplines or natural sciences. 
Our company has been offering an “Egis Award” for many years by now, it is granted to entries presenting novel ideas related to chemistry, biochemistry, and biology. This year, Ádám Vajda, student of ELTE Miklós Radnóti Training School and High School, Budapest, won the award with his project “Estimation of the Human Body Key Points based on FMCW (Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave) Radar Images.” The process is based on radar-based posture recognition methods and is used in several different areas:  in the fight against terrorism, in rescue operations after natural disasters or even to improve the reliability and safety of self-driving vehicles.
