KINGS AND QUEENS WITH A LEGACY

Aryan Panchmatia and Nadia Ahmed had a project in the Technology category titled Kadunda Foot Mouse. They designed a mouse that is adaptive to people who are hand challenged. The target of their project is the digitization of education in Kenya which cannot be achieved in special schools without assistive technologies that are friendly and adaptive to the learners who are hand challenged. In this project, they have made a foot mouse in the form of an open shoe which is operated by the feet. They have also installed speech recognition software which allows automatic typing by speech without the use of hands.
