IEEE Day 2024 at Sri Sai Ram Engineering College, West Tambaram, was a spectacular 
celebration of technology and innovation, featuring seven thrilling events that 
captivated participants.  
The RC Turbo Track event saw students designing and racing custom-built RC cars, 
showcasing their engineering prowess. Cipher Chase tested speed and collaboration as 
teams solved complex coding problems in a fast-paced, two-round competition. The 
Bot Vault, organized by the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, introduced 
students to the fundamentals of automation and sensor technology through hands-on 
activities. Bid Wars combined quiz challenges on IEEE topics with a strategic bid
based presentation round, highlighting participants' creativity and strategic thinking. 
Botify Business focused on leveraging AI for business applications, where participants 
generated promotional content and built chatbots to tackle real-world problems. The 
Payload Pursuit (CTF Challenge) featured an exhilarating seven-level Capture The 
Flag competition, engaging teams in technical problem-solving. Finally, SparkScape 
invited teams to pitch innovative ideas, design posters, and solve puzzles, blending 
business and technology in a creative contest. IEEE Day 2024 was a resounding success, 
fostering collaboration, innovation, and a passion for technology among all participants, 
leaving everyone inspired and eager for future challenges.

EVENT DESCRIPTION: 
Cipher Chase, held on October 7, 2024, as part of IEEE Day 2024 celebrations at Sri 
Sairam Engineering College, was a fast-paced two-round technical competition. The event 
challenged participants on both logical reasoning and technical coding skills, testing their 
ability to solve puzzles and program effectively under pressure. 
A total of 25 teams participated in the event, each composed of two members. The first 
round was conducted via Educaplay, focusing on future and emerging technologies, while the 
second round was held on HackerRank, emphasizing multi-language programming. 
ROUND 1: 
The Turbo Track event began with Round 0 on October 1st, 2024, serving as an online 
preliminary session to help participants prepare for the main event. Teams attended an 
informative Q&A session, where they clarified competition rules and expectations. The event 
team showcased a demo RC car with basic features, giving participants a firsthand look at the 
design elements and performance capabilities required for the competition. The session 
provided valuable insights, helping participants fine-tune their own models. 
Teams Presented: 25 
No. of Participants: 50 
ROUND 2: 
In the second round, Treasure Hunt – Code to Win, teams were challenged with multi
language programming tasks on HackerRank. The round featured a unique dynamic where only 
one team member could code at a time, while the other was kept away from the workspace. 
Teams were required to switch between coding turns, making seamless communication and 
strategy critical for success. The task involved solving programming problems in C, Python, 
Java, and C++ to reveal missing letters in a partially completed word. Success in this round 
demanded not only technical proficiency in multiple programming languages but also effective 
collaboration between team members, as they frequently swapped roles.The top teams to 
correctly decode and complete the word by solving all the coding challenges were declared the 
winners. 
Teams Presented: 10 
No. of Participants: 20
