Feeling on going to ISEF?

Attending IRIS was a great experience as it is a platform to young, budding scientists. I am extremely happy that I have been short-listed to participate in the International Science and Engineering fair along with 1500 other like-minded students. I am confident that the ISEF gives me bigger platform to showcase my talent and also a great, unforgettable experience and exposure from which I can learn. Imagining interaction with students of various parts of the world and interaction with the Nobel laureates itself gives me a great pleasure and thrill. I am sure that its reminiscences will remain in my mind forever.

Certain Quotes which inspired me:

  • “Opportunity knocks the door only once; make good use of it”

  • “The first step towards creating an improved future is developing the ability to envision it”

  • “Be prepared. You never get a second chance to make a good first impression”

  • “The best way to escape from a problem is to solve it”
  • “Success comes to those who dare and act”
  • “Confidence is the companion of success”
  • “A journey of thousand miles must begin with a single step”
Who inspired me to go for my project? And who is my hero/idol.

Once I happened to visit a school for the visually challenged. There I found that their gaming entertainment was very limited and that they did not have a cost effective mind boosting tool. This inspired me to take up this project. “Albert Einstein has always been my role model”.
