Jajpur:A student from Odisha's Jajpur has developed a pair of spectacles, which can prove to be a boon for the visually impaired and deaf.

The young inventor, Priyabrata Sahu, studies in standard VIII at Prahallad Chandra Bramhachari School of Jajpur.

He made the spectacles from waste material with the help of Atal Tinkering Labs, which have been set up in schools under the collaboration of Niti Aayog and Central Government. His endeavour was fulfilled under the guidance of his school teacher.

The device is designed in such a way that visually impaired persons can know the presence of things in front of them through a censor.

The device can also help deaf people as it will vibrate and they will be cautious about the danger ahead.

Priyabrata's invention has invited applause from his classmates and family. His family members pleaded the government to support him in his research work. This invention of Priyabrata will certainly provide encouragement to other students.
