Westfield, NJ highschool organized a 12hrs hackathon on December-8, 2018. Around 90 students had participated to complete from all around new jersey.

Om Desai (freshman of AIT highschool, Union county, NJ) had captained a team of Siddhant Desai (freshman of MSE highschool, Morris county, NJ) & Gyan Ghoda (freshman of AIT highschool, Union county, NJ) as Team AIRO to win Second Prize.

They had developed an interactive Homework Helper tool, with Artificial Intelligence (AI) in-built that can help students staying organized. The tool lets students interact with devices like Google Mini, Alexa etc. using natural English language, and populates their calendar by automatically organizing their tasks in the order which makes much sense.
