[Goanet-News] Coders with a cool solution make it to Montreal
A couple of young students from here making it from Goa (BITS-Pilani Goa Campus) to Montreal for the global Python software developers conference, with a rather interesting solution to teach braille... Sanskriti Dhawle (culture.dawle at gmail.com) and Aman Srivastav are going places. Literally. These 20-year-old second-year techology students at the BITS-Goa campus are headed for PyCon 2014 in Montreal this April (2014), the international Python developers' conference. Their project is indeed innvative. They created Project Mudra -- a Braille dicta-teacher which makes it very simple to learn the ABC in Braille. It's based on Raspberry Pi -- the credit-card-sized single-board computer developed in the UK with the intention of promoting the teaching of basic computer science in schools. Here, they explain what they've done and how they plan to take their work forward. More about them here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veOJk89LPPUfeature=youtu.be http://www.projectmudra.com/ http://yourstory.com/2014/02/braille-learning-device/ If you could put them in touch with someone interesting who might appreciate their innovation (or give them a word of encouragement), please do!
