    You will be able to feel what robot feels and you can make robots work as per your wish. The robot will do what you will do. Doctors can do operations from any part of the world or people can drive cars sitting at a place anywhere maybe in house also. This technology will give the fully immersive VR gaming experience. The glove we developed in this research institute helps to track the hand and make a virtual hand in Virtual World(Virtual Reality).

     

  • My Typical Day

    I can't wake up early since I go to sleep late night after watching Netflix. But we all should wake up early which is good for health. I go to work and then do experiments in lab but most of my time goes reading various research works of different scientists from all over the world. Coding is also a part of my work and I feel very happy when code works after long time of frustration when it doesn't work. It's a great feeling. I don't work on Saturday and Sunday and go to visit different places and taking photos or sitting in my house and do drawing. I am also involved with Scribble society, so, do various art works like making bird house painting, making lighting jars etc. I go to hiking sometimes.

  • What I'd do with the prize money

    I will arrange workshops with small children who can come to my institute and see the research institute and talk with many scientists. I want to buy many colours and do workshop with them. I think if you are creative in art or any other form you can create new things in science also. At the end of the day we all are finding or creating new.
