13 years old INDIAN teen, Shubham Banerjee working on Braille Printer with Microsoft

Shubham Banerjee

This teen was having great curiosity to find how blind people read when he was just 12 years old. And this curiosity leds to build a low cost printer with its lego game blocks. And he also found his new partner that is working in mIcrosoft that helped him to make his dreams real.
Banerjee told a Windows blogger earlier this week that “I discovered that typical Braille printers cost about $2,000 (about Rs 126,000) or even more, and I felt that was unnecessarily expensive for someone already at a disadvantage. So, I put my brain to work, and the first thing that came to mind was to create an alternative using my favorite toy.”
Banerjee failed by seven times but finally at 8th time he was successful in making this printer which costs him about 350$.“I achieved an 82% reduction in cost and have been overwhelmed by the encouraging feedback from both the sighted and the blind,” he was quoted in a blog. This big thing is that he did no kept the idea bounded to him instead he posted the method for other to make it yourself online.
And this was a revolutionary step towards these printers as the printer that cost above 2000$ can now be build at home within 350$. Now benerjee started his own company named Braigo (combined Braille and Lego) Labs, and became the youngest entrepreneur to pick up venture capital funding when Intel Capital invested in his startup, Braigo Labs.

“Also, think about the banks, the government institutions or even the libraries where Windows-based computers are widely used. They will all benefit from having a Braigo to provide accessibility services to their visually impaired customers,” added by him.

Hack WiFi Account From Phishing Attack With WifiPhisher

WiFi Phishing Attack With WifiPhisher Tool  Wifiphisher   is a security tool that mounts fast automated phishing attacks against WiFi networks in order to obtain secret passphrases and other credentials. It is a social engineering attack that unlike other methods it does not include any brute forcing.
