Team Aneme, Team S-DOC, and Team Air doctor were awarded for their ideas on an anemia detection app that lets users screen for anemia with their smartphones at an affordable price, on an app that enables people to diagnose skin condition by themselves, and on a mask dispensers designed primarily for children.
