The startup\u2019s core product is T-Connect OneView- a smart pipeline intrusion detection system that is governed by AI and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.founderlabs.in\/stellapps-using-technology-to-empower-farmers\/\">Machine Learning<\/a>. The product can be adapted for application in refineries, subsea, railways, border, and perimeter security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tranzmeo\u2019s solutions help identify any abnormality in the pipelines quickly and enable early rectification. The use of photonics in remote sensing not only helps in identifying damage and its exact location at an early stage but also prevents leakage of hazardous substances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Other Achievements<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u27a2 The company was selected in 2021 by CiscoLaunchPad, an accelerator program for B2B ventures aiming to scale up their operations.<br>\u27a2 It received an invitation to the prestigious Society of Petroleum Engineers\u2019 Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE) 2023 organised by the Society of Petroleum Engineers.<br>\u27a2 It won the third prize at the Take Off Startup Summit 2022.<br>\u27a2 It was awarded the grant-in-aid in TIDE 2.0 (Technology Incubation and Development of Entrepreneurs) organised by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MEITY).<br>\u27a2 Hindustan Petroleum Oil Corporation is one of the leading investors in Tranzmeo.
