A seventh-grade student from Karachi has designed a smart stick to help visually impaired individuals navigate their surroundings safely. The innovative device uses sensors to detect obstacles and provides real-time feedback to the user, making daily movement easier and safer.
The student’s project has already gained attention from educators and tech enthusiasts, who praised the creativity and social impact. Officials and NGOs working for the blind community called the invention “a remarkable step toward inclusive technology in Pakistan.”
The young inventor hopes to further improve the device and make it widely available for people who need it the most.
