Press mention after TEDxPanaji talk

The Navhind Times

The newspaper mentions ”The second, and the youngest speaker, was LEGO robotics prodigy, 10-year-old Sai Pranav Gandhi who showcased a few of his interesting inventions. This included a gadget which blows balloons and another which solves the Rubik’s Cube. “For me building these gadgets is enjoyable just like football or even attending a birthday party. All that is required is a desire to learn while having fun,” he said. His engrossing talk got him a standing ovation”

Says ”Ten-year-old Saipranav Gandhi, a LEGO robotics prodigy, was the youngest speaker at the event. His appeal to the audience was that robotics is not just for geeks and that anyone with a little help from the internet and a child-like enthusiasm, can be inventive and create.”

Goan Observer

Says ”The youngest is a Saipranav Gandhi, ten years old child prodigy who’s taken a shine to LEGO robotics, won multiple awards in robotics competitions and LEGO leagues at regional and national level. I said hello to this young genius and asked him to design a maid service robot to help me do boring chores at home like making tea, cooking and washing up. He actually took me seriously, hurrah.”

My Learnings from FTC

In my journey, in FTC I learned many things and came across many different challenges. I had to overcome all of these challenges and I learnt a lot in the process. One of the major things that I learnt was 3d designing. Before I had some minor knowledge of using Fusion 360 but I learnt a lot more during this competition. As the only 3d Designer in the team I had to design many of the major parts we needed for the competition. Here are a few of the things that I designed. Battery Holder To hold the battery to our robot, we needed a holder to store it and help us attach it to the robot. To start, I took the battery measurements by the scale and created a sketch to be the base, then extruded the walls and the base. I made a slot for the wire of the battery to be able to come out. With the rough design of the battery holder down, I started the refinement of the build and filleted down all the sharp edges. However, if I were to re-design this part, I could count this step as a mistake as

Brahma of Goa

Over the last few weeks, as a part of my participation in the E-Yantra Virtual Museum competition, I have been on a journey to discover the history of one statue and its entire story. I have scoured the internet searching for leads, visited temples, talked to priests and gone around Goa to find out about this one statue. This statue is a sculpture of Brahma, a Hindu god. It is chiselled black stone and originates in the Kadamba era (12th century). It is decorated with many details, stands tall, and is bearded with Kadamba-style designs. The figure carries a ladle in its upper right Hand, The Vedas in its upper left hand. Kamandal in its lower left hand and chanting beads in its lower right hand. Now let me walk you through my story about this statue. First, I saw images of the statue and then tried searching for information on it online. I found a few excellent articles, but those still wouldn’t give the full details. After a lot of scouring around the internet, I found one article w
