India's Sumit Dagar has
made his country proud by inventing world‘s first smartphone for the blind
people. The pioneering smartphone invented by this National Institute of Design
(Ahmedabad) alumnus converts every SMS and email sent to it into blind-friendly Braille.
And naturally a visually challenged person can easily read the message.
It is really so nice to know that now our visually challenged friends will be able to use, independently, a technology that has become part and parcel of the modern human life. And what significantly adds to the thrill of every Indian is the fact that this has been made possible by a fellow Indian.
Since the early stage of its civilization India has enriched the world technology horizon with notable inventions, with the pioneering work of Sumit Dagar being a reflection of that rich technological legacy that our nation takes pride in. His work will also inspire others who want to make a noble use of their command of science and technology, by bringing more people within the periphery of the latter's service.
