Congratulations to Dr. Richa Gupta and  Dr. Anmol Srivastava from IIIT-Delhi on receiving the Qualcomm XR University Research Grant 2026 for their project, “PathSense: Behavior-Informed Auditory Augmented Reality Framework to Support Allocentric Indoor Navigation of Large Spaces for Blind and Low-Vision Users in India.” Dr. Richa Gupta is the Principal Investigator (PI), with Dr. Anmol Srivastava serving as the Co-Principal Investigator (Co-PI).

Supported for three years with a grant of approximately ₹62 lakh, this research contributes a behavior-informed framework for representing environmental information through multimodal interaction to support independent indoor navigation for blind and low-vision (BLV) individuals. By investigating how BLV users perceive and interpret various non-visual representations of indoor space, the study aims to generate empirical evidence to inform the design of future Audio Augmented Reality (AAR) systems for accessible navigation in India.

Beyond indoor mobility, the findings contribute to multimedia rendering, spatial computing, and multimodal interaction design by informing how environmental information should be sensed, prioritized, and communicated within emerging XR systems.

In a remarkable achievement, Team Catalyst, comprising Tushita Kapoor (IIIT-Delhi), Aryan Bhutyal (SRM-IST, Chennai), Kanishka Singh (TIET, Patiala), and Rushil Agarwal (IIIT Gwalior), has emerged as the National Winner of Flipkart GRID 8.0 – Data Science Track, competing against over 1.7 lakh registrations from across the country.

The team developed FlipLens – an Autonomous Return Triage System, an end-to-end solution designed to identify fraudulent e-commerce return requests while ensuring a seamless experience for genuine customers.

By analysing order details, customer history, product information, submitted evidence and return policies, FlipLens intelligently categorises requests for auto-approval, auto-rejection or human review. The solution also emphasises explainable, policy-backed decisions while recognising situations that require human intervention.

Congratulations to Tushita and the entire Team Catalyst on this outstanding achievement! Your innovation and problem-solving approach make us proud.
