Bisma Salangi, a Pakistani student, has made the country proud as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) recognized her extraordinary creation.
The 13-year-old computer prodigy created anti-sleep spectacles to prevent drivers from falling asleep while driving, as part of global efforts to reduce traffic accidents and improve road safety.
NASA has invited the Karachi student to their camp to further polish her abilities and design new devices that can help society in order to recognize her work.
Bisma highlighted the skills of Pakistani students in a recent interview, emphasising the necessity of determination in reaching amazing feats.
Bisma was also lauded for her efforts on inventions that might reduce and preserve precious human lives.
Anti-sleep glasses, also known as sleepiness detection glasses, are being developed by scientists all around the world so that they can be integrated into current vehicles. It detects tiredness by monitoring many indicators such as steering patterns, lane deviations, and driver behavior.
If the glasses detect the driver asleep, it immediately sends a warning since it uses algorithms to analyse aspects such as eye movement and facial expressions.
Such devices could improve safety by assisting with lane keeping and preserving a safe distance from other vehicles.
