Designed to display election symbols with enhanced visibility, these illuminated placards can be easily spotted from a distance, making them a practical tool for political outreach. The lights can operate for up to four hours on a single charge and can be fully recharged within an hour using a standard Type-C mobile charger. An indicator bulb has also been incorporated to display battery levels.
"It will be visible from a 30 to 40 feet distance. Many who saw this have encouraged us, as this is a new idea. Many politicians have promised to give us orders, once the candidates are announced. For every booth, they have asked for orders. We are gearing up to provide those many quantities," Sudhakar said.
Sudhakar’s innovation is already drawing interest from political aspirants ahead of the Tamil Nadu polls.
