K-Shield : Must for road safety

Probably India’s First, Edge Computing Device in Road Safety (K-Shield) is Ready for Industrial Production (K-Shield)! Proud Moment to the Institution, Founders, of course to me as a Mentor!!

Dear Friends and Students

I still remember it was probably the Year 2016, 4 members of First Year ECE students approached me with a simple idea of road safety! This conversation continued and continues for 6 years now!

We started as a simple college-level product for road safety! Now exactly after 6 years, it got converted into an industry-ready product named K-Shield (a device that prevents accidents by monitoring drivers and alerts if it detects any type of danger on the road).


We started discussions in our 10X10 room in 2016, after 6 years this team converted it to a start-up named “Kshemin Labs”, raised multi-million INR, and developed probably India’s first and Aatmanirbharbharat Edge Computing Device for Road Safety.

After the initial college demo version, I was having a proud moment when I was naming this baby product as Kshemin- Safety in Sanskrit. I am happy to see that these founders are still continuing with the same name! Thank you so much, Team!

K-Shield is powered by an AI-Engine which constantly analyses the video feeds and location data and provides real-time situations to the driver. Hyper-Vision high-speed video cameras are supporting this effort. It has the capability to handle 4G!

Thanks to the semiconductors' shortage, this team started working on various options and finally developed their own Edge Computing Device! Now it is ready for industrial production! This team is getting offers to develop similar edge computing devices for various other use cases!! Maybe this will become their main business!! Who knows!! Often by-products become revenue generators!

After 6 years, the first 3 founders are still intact, taking this mission with commitment!!

Congratulations!! K Pradeep Varma, CEO & Co-Founder, K Gyna Sai (Co-Founder and Dev), K Ratan Rohit (Co-Founder and ML Engineer)

Cab Service, Institutional Transport, Logistics Organizations, and Personal Car Owners! Make your Road Journeys Safer and Smarter using K-Shield!

Please reach out to CEO Pradeep (pradeep@ksheminlabs.com) for any enquiries or partnerships or support in any form!

The lack of real-time driver assistance systems in vehicles is resulting in more than 78% of the accidents!

Note: Edge computing solution surpasses the benefits of conventional cloud computing as edge computing processes data locally.
