Microplastic Detection Device

I have built an innovative machine learning device for detection and classification of microplastics in Mumbai’s mangroves/ creeks. This device is based on CNN- deep learning, Raspberry Pie and Artificial Intelligence. This project won the CREST GOLD award. The research paper has been published in IJERTSE.

“Prithivi” App

  • Developed an app – “ Prithivi ( The Earth)” to enable users to track and shrink their carbon footprint.

  • I am part of my school Robotics Team # 7539 Elev8. As Outreach and Safety Captain for the Robotics team, I organized, oversaw, and participated in outreaches to promote Girls in STEM & Robotics in India. I helped organize Hackathons and wrote the Impact Award Essay
  • As the construction sub-Team member I self-taught myself Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Software like SolidWorks.

    Our school team has also hosted stalls at G20 summit , Bengaluru, CAS Fete and Kala Ghoda Festival.

  • In the New York Regional “FIRST” Robotics competition, our school team placed 3rd out of 47 teams participating.
