Nagpur: An innovative project by two Std IX students of Narayana 
Vidyalayam won the 'best project' award at the national level CBSE Science 
Exhibition 2013-14. Aditya Bhopale and Kartikeya Rehpade designed a device 
that helps visually impaired people not only read text but also identifies 
obstacles around them to aid in walking.


The Solar Audio Book For The Visually Impaired project has also landed 
both the whiz kids an invite to the US from tech giant Intel Corporation. 
A jubilant Aditya Bhopale said, The results were announced on Sunday in 
New Delhi and the competition was extremely stiff. There were 350 projects 
from across the country and each one was very good. Our product was unique 
because it provided a valuable service to the visually impaired.


The audio book device is just the size of regular novel but weighs around 
400 grams. It runs on solar power and is the perfect mix of a device that 
mixes social responsibility and technology. Aditya said, Our device reads 
scanned text aloud that will help visually impaired people get access to 
books and other text oriented things. Scanned images of texts from 
newspapers, magazine etc can be transferred to our device via Bluetooth. I 
have also added space for expandable external memory so that scanned text 
images can be stored.


The ultra sonic mapping helps identify objects within a 3 metre perimeter, 
which is beneficial to the visually impaired. Aditya, said, Through 
vibrations the person holding it will come to know about the obstacles in 
his way. The device has a battery life of 7-13 hours and needs hardly 
half an hour of direct sunlight to get fully charged.


It took Aditya and Kartikeya almost three months before they came up with 
a working model of the device. Aditya said, In March we were informed 
about the competition by the CBSE and our school finalized both of us for 
the project. Our science teachers, Dhanashree Waikar, Aparna Pillai, 
Poonam Karunakarm, Supriya Abdeo and Siddharth Sontakke suggested we must 
make a device for the visually impaired after which we went through a lot 
of options. In the end, we zeroed in on the audio book because it is 
unique and had not been made before. By June last week, a working model 
was ready and then only the refinements remained. Kartikeya made a 
perfect partner to Aditya contributing to the aesthetics of the device. I 
suggested the outer body design and even gave the ultra sonic mapping 
idea, he said.
